Specialist retailer GAME has listed Star Wars 1313 as being due for release on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, despite reports that the game could be a next-gen title.
You can understand some games getting canceled, but these awesome looking games still baffle us to this very day.
"Tommy saving the planet from an army of aliens after they abducted him and his entire bar, with the game ending on the promise that Tommy would be back, but that promise was never fulfilled"
The thing is with the original Prey 2 that Tommy wasn't even the main character, they replaced him with some generic looking space bounty hunter. It was a refreshing change to see an awesome Native American character with ancestral like powers fight aliens yet they ditched him. It was only after an outcry they showed much later in a new preview that Tommy was in the game as an NPC.
I'd have prefered a real sequel with Tommy as the main character, literally picking right up from the originals ending.
As for Eight Days...Sony really needs to pick this up
If Amy Hennig was still at ND, I'd have loved to see her tackle it after what she did with Uncharted.
One of the lead engine programmers for Prey 2 at Human Head was my programming instructor when i was taking game design. This game was in limbo at the time and we asked once and only once about this game, the misery in his eyes when he told us "this is the 1st and only time ill ask you to never ask me about that game" was something ill never forget😅 he used a couple assets through the curriculum for teaching purposes but nothing very tangible. Just a function here, a 3d prop there. Such a shame. Years later i saw him at a magic tournament, we caught up and he still thinks about that game and how it's "practically done" probably sitting on a drive somewhere
One that's not on the list is Killing Day, I remember seeing the trailer in 2005 and being impressed at the time. Being Ubisoft you know it would have been a AAAA game too, lol
2 Days to Vegas and The Getaway 3 are two other games that seemed promising but never came out.
Sometimes even promising titles never see the light of day. These are five of the most ambitious games that shouldn't have been canceled.
Kojima wouldn't have started his own studio if Silent Hills didn't get cancelled so even if it stung at first, I'm fine with it.
i remember being so excited for patriots for years, only to have them release that siege trash. i hate how multiplayer games, pvp in particular, have ruined so many potentially good games.
Gotta wonder why Starcraft: Ghost literally became a ghost.
I'm getting it on PC, looks fantastic.

Small part. can't wait.
This game looks like it might be pretty good, but I'm still waiting for a new star wars battlefront game...
Placeholder dates/platforms from retailers shouldn't be news at this point.
From what we've seen, that level of fidelity is not possible on either PS3 or 360; heck, it's only possible on a high-end PC, and even then I doubt we'd see a commercial release of a title like that until GTX 680 equivalent GPUs are in the mid-range of power due to scalability concerns.
Why does everybody think that was console footage? It was running on PC.
This as well as Watch Dogs and Square Enix's tech demo were each probably running on some insane computer like quad or tri SLI 680s. Hell, even a single 680 or 7970 can't hold 60fps on 64 player BF3 matches or even 60 fps constant in Serious Sam 3 completely maxed out and still, to this day, NO single GPU can run Crysis 1 completely maxed out at 60fps constant.
I have a 7970 with an AMD Phenom ii x4 955 @ 3.5ghz & 8GB DDR 3 @ 1333mhz and I fear it's not going to be enough to run graphics like this at 1080p/40-60fps.
It's like 2007 all over again with the release of Crysis 1, where virtually no one could max it out.
