Extraquarter-"Unfortunate ly, history has shown, there are a select few titles, despite the enormous attention and potential, will never see the light of day. None showed so much promise, potential and excitement, arguably more than Project Offset."

"You know, it’s no secret that many games have been cancelled in the past. Some of those games had the potential to be a AAA experience but for some reason or the other, those ideas were thrown out. That is the way the industry works, because after all it’s a business."
We all know if The Getaway 3 ever had to exist it would've been to GTA-ish seeing thats what fans would've wanted.
Man, would be awesome to see The Getaway and Star Wars 1313 on PS4. Though, BloodRayne didn't make the list, it was a lot of fun too...would like to see it on PS4 as well!
I forgot all about Project offset, but I always knew PO would never come out on the PS3 or X360. PO appeared to be beyond both systems capabilities at the the time. Fractiv LLC is the name of the company that made PO demo, they actually licensed their game engine for the game Firefall. I do think Sony should make Getaway 3 for the PS4, thought the demo looked pretty nice and GW2 was decent but not great back in the day.
Project Offset!! Thank you, I have been trying to remember the name of that one, I was so excited about it but it just vanished.
I think technology now is capable of rendering Project Offset. In 2006 no way graphics processors had the rendering grunt to run this vaporware demo at HDTV resolution with AA. Look at Crysis, took about 4 years before single graphics cards could render that Crysis at max settings around 60 FPS.
My old Nvidia GTX 670 was the first graphics card I own that could rendering Crysis at 60 FPS with AA 2012. In 2010 my AMD 6970 got close, around 50 FPS without AA max settings.
Each year our video game addiction is sated with a fair share of excellent games, but sometimes great games never see the light of day. This is a short list of some of the most eagerly anticipated games that we’ll never have a chance to play.
That Operation Falloujah game too. There are so many games that never make it.
A good list. Lots of potential, sad that we didn't see those.
Too many games that never make it, too many titles that should have. I still wish to see Star Wars: Battlefront III
I dont want a Star Wars Battlefront 3. I loved the first two but I only want to see the games made by Pandemic.
The craziest switcheroos are from Resident Evil in my opinion. I wish they would stick with the original ideas they show at first. The final product always looks like a watered down version of the debut screens or demos.
The Video provided in the article has the look of how Resident Evil 4 should have remained. A true Resident Evil title.
Can you imagine if Resident Evil 2 stayed like this?

That was a true dark and nasty Resident Evil title.
Rated E For Everyone
lol, I was going to include Dungeon Keeper 3 but there doesn't seem to be any actual footage of it...never got off the drawing board :<
