I think it would be neat to make a list of all of the games that could have or should have been made, but for some unexplained reason were not... i.e. games that could have been successful or games that you wish were made but for some reason it just never happened...
For instance, one game I would have loved to have played, but it was never made, is kill bill

Propeller Arena was complete but not released for Dreamcast because of 9/11. One of the main levels had two towers in the center.
(Similar in some ways to Crimson Skies, but much better)
True Fantasy Live Online might have been ok, would have been really the only MMORPG on the Xbox (PSO doesn't count).

The N64 versions of Dinosaur Planet and Animal Crossing might have been nice, and an American version of Sin and Punishment would have been awesome.
Still...I would have loved to see "Sam and Max: Freelance Police" or the new "Full Throttle" game released for the PC. It's a shame that Lucasarts seems to be pulling out of the adventure games market - some of us are still devoted fans...

Did you ever actually play the leaked version? There wasn't much in the way of a story line, this was going to be a purely multiplay title. The music got old very fast a la Crazy Taxi, controlling the planes was very difficult due to the sluggish controls, and the arenas themselves were very small. If I had played this title before Crimson Skies came out my opinion might be a bit different but IMO Crimson Skies improves on everything that Propeller Arena had accomplished

The game was done. Complete waste of effort, would have been a nice game. People forget that it was made by Sega/AM2, Yu Suzuki's team. Those guys shit pure gold.
The leaked version from what I heard was an earlier version and not what they had at the time of cancellation.

Remember how society was at that point? People were ready to ban Microsoft Flight Simulator because you could crash planes into buildings.
At that point in time, it would have been financial suicide to release any kind of product at all that included air combat. Even with the offending levels gone, the game would have caused a huge uproar.
Another game to add to the list...the NES version of Supar Mario Brothers: The Lost Levels. I would have loved to play that on its original console. It's too bad that I haven't found a Japanese copy that's affordable...

The Dreamcast was almost dead at the time anyway, the game's selling point was online play and they weren't going to support that for much longer. Any delay basicly killed their chances for sales at that point. They could have released it and made some of their money back even if it didn't sell well though. Thats why SEGA went broke, bad decisiions.
Another interesting game that never saw the light of day on the Dreamcast was Independence War 2, it did come out on PC though. Think Starlancer/Freelancer.

Super Mario Bros. DX has the original version of that game. In fact, it's even better because you can save your progress. I do agree though. I would have loved to have played that when it first came out. SMB was my favorite game in the early days of the NES (and was the reason I bought an NES in the first place), but I always thought it was too easy. SMB 2 would have rectified that problem. Hell, I would have settled for a home version of the SMB VS. coin op, which changed many level layouts to make it more challenging. Nintendo didn't release SMB 2 because they thought it was too hard for US players. Nice thinking, Nintendo. No wonder they're losing the console wars.

Ugh. Thrill Kill was el stinko. I was mad at EA for their censorship for a long time, until I actually played the game. It was weak.

hiccupleftovers
10-10-2004, 07:39 PM
I would like to say the aforementioned Green Lantern Game, Kill Bill, and Sin and Punishment. Sin and Punishment would be awesome because I had played a Japanese demo of it (might have been the real game, don't really know) and it was one of the best rail-shooters I have ever played.
"Sam and Max: Freelance Police" and "Full Throttle" sequels would be nice, too bad they were scrapped. They were some of the funnest games ever in their heyday and defiently need to either be ported or redone or sequeled, etc.. Lucasarts doesn't see what potential it has.
I would also like to play or have another Chrono Trigger/Cross game. At one point it had looked like they were making it since they had registered the title Chrono Break and that everyone had been anticipating them making it. But they let that drop, well we can still wish and call Square madly and yell our brains out and complain why they haven't tooken advantage of such a popular title. Now it looks like they are redoing the original Chrono Trigger for a port for either GBA or DS, so let's hope.
Actually, I would like to see Square get out of this repitition of making mostly Final Fantasy sequels. I would like to see them make more sequels of the better franchise that they have when they merged with Enix, Dragon Warrior. They should also bring over, even if it's still for the PS! but at least we would have it, Tobal number 2. They should also try making some sequels to Einhander and Vagrant Story. It would be nice to see them do a sequel to Valkyrie Profile and also include the original game so that the rest of us could play it. I would like to jsut plainly see more innovation out of Square like it had done on the PS1 instead of this slew of Final Fantasy Sequels. Sure this generation we've had Kingdom Hearts and Drakengard, but they haven't been doing to much out of their Final fantasy universe. What happened to games like Parasite Eve, which had psuedo real time combat like they have in KOTOR? Why don't they make a sequel for that?
An Aeon Flux game would also be pretty cool if done right.
If Nintendo of America had brought over the Earthbound compilation they had for GBA (i believe it was this) than I would play it also. While they are added, why don't they bring over the rest of the Fire EMblem series that they haven't given America and also Nintendo Puzzle Collection for GCN. Though Nintendo tends to be not bad with pleasing their fans and rectifying their mistakes and bringing ove to America the games that their fans want, they still should get the ball rolling on a lot of theiir other titles. I would love to see them bring over Doshin the Giant. I had thought that this was coming to GCN, but somehow in the shuffle from last generation to this, it was canned. Anybody know why?

They don't realize how awesome this would be on a modern console. But, seeing as how they scrapped the Sam and Max and Full Throttle sequels, that pretty much confirms MM3 never seeing the light of day. Lucasarts would rather make YET ANOTHER stupid Star Wars racing game than complete another great adventure game, even though they have huge cult followings.

it was being developed by 898 so obviously it sucked. they deserve the same fate as acclaim and 3do.
The Diabolical Adventures of Tobu (By 989 Studios for PlayStation · Not released November 1998)
The Hype: “A refreshingly unique, flight-based platform game,” according to Air Hendrix back in our October 1998 issue. Playing as the title character in a fantasy Asiatic setting, “Tobu has full 360-degree freedom of movement in alluring 3D worlds, as he rams enemies, collects power-ups, rockets through speed chutes, and floats up drafts.”
What Happened? Games can look good, but it’s all about gameplay-and Tobu’s didn’t exactly fly high enough. The game simply wasn’t performing up to expectations, so it was grounded.

It did materialize.........in Japan, for Saturn, PS, and NeoCD. No English version was ever made, which blows cuz it looked pretty kick ass.
For the one who wanted GI Joe games, I know of 2 that were released on the NES, looked pretty average though.
For everyone that wants Power Stone 3, I'm joining you. Way back in an old Official Dreamcast Magazine they did an interview with 2 of the creators were mentioning ideas they had back then for what they thought would be an inevitable third game. And knowing the crap that Capcom shits out at times, I think a Power Stone 3 online for one or more systems would kick ass.
One thing that I do think would make a good game would be Smash Bros. style game using the dozens of bosses and characters from the Mega Man/MMX series.

I'm fairly certain that I saw ads for it in Official Dreamcast and Gamepro awhile back. I'm almost 100% certain that it did come out for the Dreamcast but in a limited quantity. I am though, a 100% sure that recently it was reproduced for the PS2 but didn't sell well again like their Virtual on series. I know I think my Fry's might actually have it in their 19.99 and under section.

#1 for me has always been a persistent state Pokemon MMO game. Pretty much every feature in that game lends itself perfectly to this format. Chansey, for instance, is supposed to be incredibly hard to catch, hence the name. But with individual carts, anyone can walk around until they've caught one, so its not really rare at all. In a persistent state world, they can actually implement a true "rarity" among certain pokes and items. If you've ever played a persistant state MMO game, you know that collecting and showing off rare things is the TRUE driving force behind them. In addition, not everyone would have to be a trainer. Perhaps you make your money raising signature pokemon (there's a system where by completing a quest or having a rare item, you can raise pokemon with a special move they can't get normally or with slightly higher values in a certain stat) and then selling them to trainers, and eventually save up enough money to buy a bigger house/training place and stock it up with rare collectible master ball Christmas tree ornaments or something. Or you could run tournaments in your own gym and have people sign up to battle you using your own custom rule sets and environmental modifiers. If they win, they of course get to show everyone the badge that you designed. The turn-based nature of combat lends itself well to management of different connection speeds.
Basically, the good opportunities in such a game are limitless.
What's not limitless is patience when dealing with a bunch of younguns running around demanding, in horrible, near indecipherable terms, that you give them a shiny pikachu. If there was a way to keep the n00bness in such a game to tolerable levels, I think I'd give my left nut to have this game.
And I think one is in development, but a Cowboy Bebop game could be pretty cool. Now, I know that licensed games rarely deliver the goods, so I'm not sure what to think of the upcoming CB game. The story of that series, and the action elements, would have been great to have been exposed to first through a game, but it'll probably disappoint after having seen the series first.

I would have loved to see that Aeon Flux game. Talk about a series that would have been a great video game.
Oh well, we're getting a movie next year, so the dream is still alive...
iirc this game got cancelled bc it had horrible controls.

How were they supposed to "finish" it? It was completely non-linear. I mean, Aeon got killed in several episodes.

She was always killed in the shorts, but I don't remember her dying at all in the actual series.

I was under the impression that the shorts fit into the continuity, since, IIRC, there was an episode later on that showed Aeon's ability to clone herself should she need to go on a suicide mission. *sigh* It's been a looooong time since I've seen it. I wish the DVD set wasn't so expensive from being out of print.

Strident for XBOX.
The screen shots for that game looked sweet. It was the reason I bought an XBOX. It looked like a combination of Ghost in the Shell and Battle Angel in a sweet 3rd person perspective. It was being worked on by Phantagram...so I'm hoping that if KUF is a big enough hit, they might finish Strident...

How about a Naruto MMO? That would be the single greatest MMO ever, there's so much variety in the ninjas. Whichever village you start out in would present different types of moves for you to master. You would have to go through the Nninja school and up the ranks while doing missions. It'd be great, if only it were made.

I wish they would re-release it on DVD. That was such an amazing show.

She actually does die in one of the episodes, but it's after Trevor clones her and the clone gets away. In the shorts, Aeon is actually an assassin who is cloned many times over, and we are just seeing one of her many missions. We all know Aeon is a badass, but if you think about it, she isn't that great a spy. She's always getting killed because her ego/curiousity/intense sex drive is getting in the way of the mission. That being said, I wish she'd commandeer my libido under Monican Aegis. :shock:
