Hardcore Gamer: Maverick Hunter was a first-person take on Mega Man that was set to be developed by Armature Studio before Capcom cancelled the project.
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.
Sometimes a video game will be announced only to be never heard of again. These cancelled video games showed a lot of promise and today GVN will be counting down the best ones!
^ And similarly, Rebelstar 2: The Meklon Conspiracy. The first on GBA is such an overlooked, underrated gem. 9.5/10.
"Top 5 cancelled video games" that list incorrect .
lets start with cancelled games from Snes up to now, that we old skool gamers have waited for for years only to find out it was cancelled.
If I made a top cancelled games. It'll all be Crash Bandicoot and MegaMan games. *sad laugh*
Artist Adi Granov released the concept design upon which the new X was modeled for the cancelled Maverick Hunter project.
not sure if I dig either the first person approach or the design. I mean, I grew up playing Mega Man as the young blue boy, but this kinda reminds me of that Bomberman game that got released on the 360 console. This is simply another example of Capcom trying to turn one of their games into the next Halo because there's a market for that in the US. I think Capcom needs to stop dipping their feet into areas they are not familiar with whether they are doing it themselves or hiring others to design it for them. I am glad they canned this game. There are far better ways to reboot, revive, branch out Mega man instead of copying Metroid.
where is the mario reboot where mario is a hitman plumber fighting bowers mob gang
