In-engine/CG, whatever it was, it looked good.

Not sure if it's canceled yet, but Intel canceled their Larrabee graphics card, which is the reason why they bought Offset in the first place. They said there should be news about the game sometime in 2010.

Most complete trailer I could find in five minutes, sorry.

Looking at this now, I don't know why, but when I saw this trailer waaay back in the nineties I though this game looked totally awesome.

Dungeon Keeper 3.

Don't know what it looks like, but come on. It's Dungeon Keeper 3.

Uh... that was only just announced a few months ago.
Pretty sure it's not canned.

[Quixoticism]

Because it was going to suck?

I can't think of any games that I was looking forward to that got cancelled.

Half-life 2: Episode 3

Damn you. Idea stealer.

WHEN WAS THIS CANCELED???

 

[Bob_Marley]

WHEN WAS THIS CANCELED???

It wasn't.

The only thing that has been troubling it is the owners of Robotech getting in a huff about the use of certain 'Mech designs (Notably, the Warhammer seen in the trailer) as they claim that they own Macross based designs in the US.

FYI it's still under development, and yes it's in-engine running on the UE3.0.

So, it doesn't belong in this thread since it once again, is NOT cancelled.

**** yes, every year I hope to God that Microsoft announce B.C. is being re-developed for the XB360.

Star Trek: Secret of Vulcan Fury. What a waste.

Did I hear the V'ger sound effect at the end of mechwarrior lol.

Star Wars Battlefront 3
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p842PtJWYW8

It actually looked pretty ****ing good. The seamless transition from land to space had me sold.
Lets hope a more competent developer grabs the rights to it.

Time Splitters, many a good time had on the first 3.

Amen: The Awakening

Prax Wars

Loose Cannon

Prey from 97/98

Gearbox's Condition Zero

Decay

Cancelled Oddworld games

 

[Gargantou]

That Decay game looks interesting, got any links to info about what it was? Early previews and stuff like that?

The real Fallout 3:

Never forget ;( .

I think it was similar to Kingpin. There was a mafia war between some factions. That's all I remember right now.

Harmony Gold are the Tim Langdells of anime. I hope they share the same dick and choke to death.

The idea of a version of Homeworld 2 that didn't suck always sounded awesome to me. They never got far enough with it to make it look that great I suppose. And yeah, the game wasn't 'cancelled' just completely diluted.

 

[Ren.182]

Shenmue 3?

Nothings really been shown and they haven't really officially canceled it because it was never really in production, I just want it.

 

[StardogChampion]

Outcast 2

Shenmue 3?

I was thinking about Shenmue when watching some Heavy Rain demo vids on Youtube. That dev team could create a good Shenmue game.

Agreed. Thank God Cataclysm was so great.

Outcast 2

As long as they didn't touch the script for Shenmue 3, sure.

But I wouldn't want them to start writing the Shenmue story.

Speaking of Shenmue, whatever happened to Shenmue Online? Did it come out in Asia or was it canned or something?

Also, speaking of Outcast, apparently there's an Outcast remake mod for Crysis in the works, looks very good. Here's a link, http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2010/02/18/mama-were-all-voxely-now-open-outcast/

The road rash video you posted Darkside has one of the most attractive high speed simulation system.
Also the SC: Ghost trailer was pretty sweet, almost forgot how awesome Blizzards animations are.

I have a friend who worked at the studio. He says they are not working it.

Yeah it got canned It wasn't the way I wanted Shenmue to go, but I guess it would have got some money together for Shenmue 3 or something.

That look insane. Now I'll have to buy Crysis.

 

[Gargantou]

It's correct that it's not currently being worked on but I have been told it's not CANNED/CANCELLED by any means, they're simply prioritizing other projects for the moment, but they're still very hopeful at the prospect of getting the game out within a few years time from what I've been able to gather. Part of the promotion for the MechWarrior revival is that they're trying to help a group of talented MW4 modders to release an enhanced freeware version of MW4.

Also about Shenmue, isn't Yu Suzuki like retired now or something?
