On The Chopping Block: Five AAA Games That Will Never See The Light Of Day (And One That Might)

GP: "For every game that is released on the market, there are dozens that never make it passed the first production meeting. While I have no feelings towards those games because they were never shown to the public, there have been many instances where a game was shown to the market to much fanfare, and then their productions were suddenly cut short and they vanished forever.

This article is about those games. The ones that could have been AAA titles, the games that you would have expected to sell systems and launch new franchises. Why didn't these games make it? They certainly looked more than good enough. Read on to find out."

I wouldn't be surprised if we never see FFXIV on the PS3.

Jack Tretton´s biggest mistake was anoncing it

ShinMaster4413d ago

That ain't his fault. Square Enix needs stop announcing games that they don't plan on releasing in years (Versus) and releasing games no one asked for (XIII-2).

[on topic]
Project Milo - All fake.
Mega Man Legends 3 - F* you Capcom!
Fallout Online - Zzz....
B.C. - ?
Sadness - Had Nintendo made a system with more up to date specs, the game would've been released.

lol @ Milo. I didn't care about any of these, but the title reminded me of The Agency. I stumbled upon info about The Agency during the summer of 07 while doing some random web surfing, and was instantly intrigued at the prospect of getting game related texts on my cell phone. I searched constantly for new intel after that, getting more and more excited each time I found new info or footage, until the day I read it was canceled. Bastards. I still hope someone will finish it since I read it was nearly completed when it was axed.

well after hearing all the bad reviews and the glitches on ff14 for pc dont think most ps3 fans wont bover tbh

Clarence4414d ago

None of these games are AAA.

Wow this is a stupid article. XIV was atrocious and the fact they are even trying to fix it is hilarious to me.

The Xbox profanity filter is currently ruining the readability of the FFXIV chat on Xbox Series X/S due to censored words.

Lol, damn... At this point, they were better off keeping FF XIV away from Xbox. It has been nothing but obstacle, after obstacle.

gold_drake16d ago

wanted to say the exact same thjng.

VenomUK15d ago (Edited 15d ago )

What happens if you say things that used to get you banned on Twitter e.g. 'a man can't be a woman'?

I'm not convinced this is the profanity filter. It doesn't make sense to censor words like class, harvest and dance. It seems to be a bug.

TheGamingHounds15d ago

Well, FF14 itself has some pretty awful chat censoring so Xbox being in the same boat isn't too farfetched

Eidolon15d ago

it censored the S T D in "harvest dance" and I bet the A S S in class. I know this because of Runescape

Aphrodia15d ago

Yeah these new fangled filters are going a bit too far. I have a game that filters "wtf". It's a censor for a self-censoring phrase. But I think overall it's how it should be. If you don't want certain language being used in your game by your player base, then it's up to you to filter/ censor the language you don't want. I can respect that. What I can't respect is when you say things that are not really offensive then you get ostracized for it.

shinoff218315d ago

What happened to just reporting people

NOMATICENIGMA15d ago

This is completely false, I tested this on my son's child account and mine, this is not Microsoft censoring they will censor swears but not the combination of letters I can prove this with a screenshot where I use all mentioned words in the article but do not know how to upload a picture.

NOMATICENIGMA15d ago

You can all continue your bashing, I was wrong someone explained to me this is a new policy, that's why it only happens for me in this brand new release. I'll try latter on ps to confirm but their response seemed informed wich leaves me rather worried for future censorship on my xbox.

CrimsonWing6915d ago

Geezus, Xbox, you get gifted gold and still f*ck things up.

NOMATICENIGMA15d ago

It's not xbox, go ahead start a chat with the youngest person on your friends list then say raid mass class sass said .... they do not censor any of these I even got away with R.Aids. sqaure on the other hand does.

CrimsonWing6915d ago

Does this affect PC and PS4/PS5 users, too? Or is it only happening on Xbox?
