"The Games that never made it !"

I've been thinking lately that its a shame that some of the games that we hear so much about never make it past the early developmental stages, or that they never grace our sunny skys.

Thrill Kill(Playstation) was one such game, banned in the UK due to its violent and disturbing fighting content.

I was also a bit gutted that NFLBlitz never made a UK appearance on my N64.

Another game that never made it was Saboteur a game that was suppossed to be released by Eidos in October of 1999, I was looking forward to this game as it was suppossed to mix the best elements of TombRaider with the classic megadrive game Shadow Dancer. For those of you unfamiliar with Shadow Dancer it was the first arcade game to bring us sword fighting ninja style action with a pet dog! Ah the thrill of seeing your dog fighting your enemys for you when you just cant be bothered.

The list continues, the N64 has had a fair few games stolen from its release schedule of late although hopefully they'll appear on the GameCube.

So what games were you all looking forward, that never quite made it???

Dragon Sword and Jest ??? never heard about those games, were they looking promising.

yeah but it's fun though aint it

I have jkust remembered two. What happened to Dragon Sword and Jest on the N64?

OK so the graphics of Resi 1.5 were a little shoddy, in that they looked like the original Resident Evil as oppossed to its graphically superior sequel. But the gameplay was still there along with everything else, I believe it should be released on budget...it may not be up to a full price release, but Ive seen worse games on sale for £10 - £20.

Yeha, I play Thrill Kill a lot. Some of the characters include:

A flexable nurse - Beladona
A mad doctor - Dr. Faustus
A short guy on stilts - The Imp

Plus loads more halarious creatures. Also, what I would do to get my hands on RE 1.5. I saw some pics of it and they looked good but the characters looked shoddy. They wore really wierd clothes and the graphics weren't as good as RE 2 anyways. If released, I probably would buy it though.

The best guy in thrill kill is the big guy with the chain. All the characters are funny, the guy that uses the torn of limb as a weapon is cool too. 4 player multiplayer action is the best, especially when drunk as it makes it even more funny.

But it's coming onto the GC in the improved form of Starfox Adventures: Dinosaur Planet!

Lets hope you get to control a Dog in Shenmue 2, that would be cool.

Shenmue 2 better be released.

Its a pitty that DinosaurPlanet is not going to come out on the N64 anymore.
