Destructoid: Just because a videogame has been announced (and sometimes millions of dollars dumped into them), that's no guarantee they'll see the fluorescent lights of your favorite retailer.
Today, Capcom announced it had pulled the plug on Mega Man Universe. While fans of the Blue Bomber shed a tear, we're sitting around the office shrugging indifferently. Based on what we had played, we weren't sold on the idea anyhow: LittleBigPlanet meets Mega Man with silly graphics and sluggish controls? We'll pass, thanks.
While we're always saddened to hear that game cancelations and job cuts sometimes go hand-in-hand, there are definitely a few games that we're happy to live without. Here are ten games that we'll sleep well knowing we'll never have to play.
Alex S. from Link-Cable writes: "Sometimes, a game getting cancelled is actually a blessing in disguise that either helps the developer or game series reach new heights with what actually does come next or just saves our time and money by keeping what would obliviously have been a bad time lost forever."
okay, I'll bite.
I friggin adored Arkane's version of Prey (it's basically the spiritual successor to System Shock that we never got) but I would have loved to see the bounty hunter iteration of the sequel as well, perhaps as it's own IP.
Scalebound for me was happy it got canned , the concept seemed picked out of a hat lol terrible.
In the first Vacated Videogames, nuGame looks at the cancelled Xbox 360 game, Frame City Killer.
Was really looking forward to this as a launch title for then next gen gaming. But it wasn't meant to be. I was hoping another publisher would pick up the mantle, but it was obviously plagued with problems. At least there's Yakuza.
The games industry can be a cruel mistress. Here are 5 games we would like to see resurrected for current platforms
I agree, Harold Wake was an awful game glad they shelved it
This is Vegas is a great concept, wish someone could pull something like that off.
Wish Shenmue 3 would make an appearance on 360/PS3. I was kinda stoked about This is Vegas shame it got cancelled. But who the hell wants to play a game about John and Kate plus 8 the show is stupid.
i am never feel Happy when i hear the word (Canceled):(
it always makes me heart broken no matter would i play the game or not :D
The Agency?
