I'm glad inSane got canceled because of it's name and logo alone, inFamous anyone?



Around the Network

Project Van Buren (Fallout 3 by Black Isle Studios)

Damn, I forgot about that one.



Other than Star Wars 1313 I've either never even heard of or couldn't care less about any of those other games on the list.

There were a ton of cancelled N64 games that were greatly anticipated back in the day... how about Robotech: Crystal Dreams or the original Dinosaur Planet before Miyamoto forced Rare to bastardize it into a Starfox spinoff?

California Rasinettes for the NES.



Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.

Nintendo Treehouse is what happens when a publisher is confident and proud of its games and doesn't need to show CGI lies for five minutes.

Wait where's The Last Guardian?

IGN's would not want to repeat the same mistake lol



I'd say Eight Days. But we all know that was never ever anything more than a flashy video for the ps3 unveiling.

Jet Set Radio 2 never happening was disappointing but not unexpected. (Dreamcast was meant to get its own sequel that was different to the Xbox one)

The Dreamcast really had the cancellations I most wanted though. Take the Bullet, Agartha, Arcatera all looked great. CastleVania and Hell Gate too. Propeller Arena was looking awesome too. Eventually code that was fully playable emerged and it was great. However with out on line the main meat of the game was missing.



RIP Dad 25/11/51 - 13/12/13. You will be missed but never forgotten.
