      ​@@DJays4 back then, it was nearly impossible to play MK3 and UMK3 on arcade here in Brazil. There weren't so many machines available and it was too expensive to buy a coin/credit... Not to mention these machines were usually stashed in places like a train/subway station, some shady place like an old bar full of drunks, idiots and drunk idiots, and parents wouldn't trust their kids hanging out in places like those let alone lending them money to pay for the coins. So having the "option" to play as her on a home console port was enough for us...
      MK3 was very popular but lacked the ninjas and some other popular characters, and when UMK3 came out for SNES and Genesis, we were stoked... "Wow, I can play as Scorpion now". Newer consoles like the SegaCD, NeoGeo, PS1, etc. were too expensive too, so that was our "option" back then. And somehow the game felt "incomplete" for many of us. "Everyone came back, where is Sheeva? Cage? Baraka? Raiden?". MK Trilogy was still too far to reach. UMK3 was all we had.
      When the romhacker was able to bring her back, even though it took many years, it felt like the game was finally "complete" and we could play it the way we wanted...

Bloke started off playing a parody pub landlord, who is racist, nationalist, homophobic, etc. Unfortunately same as it ever was, a load of _actual_ racists, homophobes, etc, latched on to that, and he became massively famous.
      He found himself stuck in some sort of philosopher's nightmare where, if he carried on pandering to that audience, he'd make a ton of money. But his act would change from parodying certain stupid people, to becoming one of them! And making a ton of money. Of course, he chose the money, because he's a twat.
      Al Murray the Pub Landlord, that's him.
      In the end, he put in nominal winks to the "parody", like he'd say some stupid homophobic bullshit, but say "I was never confused", a hint that his homophobia comes from repressed homosexuality. Which is certainly an avenue you could explore. But it became his get-out clause. Cue some horrible joke about anal sex, with a quick "Iwasneverconfused" coughed out after it. As if to make out that the audience are laughing at that miserable excuse, even though they started laughing before he'd said it. They don't think he's an idiot, they think he's wise!
      Awful. The man's a slag. No integrity, and I'm sure his stupid face has appeared promoting The Sun's bingo at least once.

    One that you missed is Moonknight and Colossus in Marvel Ultimate Alliance on PS2 and Xbox.
    Now even though both characters were in the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions of the game, they were both inaccessible in the last gen releases for some reason, but using a series of exploits you can still put them into your party and play through the whole game with them with all their moves and animations intact. Its still unknown why the developers made them inaccessible when they were programed into the game and are fully functional.

    Atari's Godzilla: Save the World files actually contain data for the unused character Biollante. If you edit the game's files and replace Mecha-King Ghidorah's files with Biollante's, you can actually use her and, besides lacking a Rage move, is fully functional. Apparently, Biollante was removed from the game at the last minute because the developers couldn't get the license in time.
    Also, not really a character, but rather a vehicle. You know how Ratchet & Clank 3's Multiplayer mode features two vehicles for players to use? Well, as it turns out, there's actually a fully functional unused third vehicle that can be used with hacks: a large, slow-moving tank that fires Gravity Bombs.

So we can also imagine Shang's actor just standing there, raising his hands for the fireball move and then being told they were done

    To be fair, for developers its far easier and less risky to leave stuff in and comment out a few lines of code than to have to strip out entire parts of code, with the possibility that it will break some other part of the software.

    • @gnu_andrew
      @gnu_andrew Рік тому +1

      Not really, because commented out code is not compiled and so there's no difference to the computer between it being commented out or removed.
      The reason to keep commented out code used to be that you might want to be able to put it back in later on, but there's no need for that with code stored in version control systems, which most modern software should be using. In that case, you can just revert whatever change happened earlier if you want it back and don't have to leave crusty, rotting code in the software people work on day to day.
      The examples in the video are likely of partial removals or required parts never being implemented. So, in the Bart Simpson case, which is probably just character graphics, the head was either never drawn or removed when they found out they weren't going to include him, but they missed the corresponding body, which is also unique to him. Same for Godzilla.
      With Sheeva, it seems they implemented code for her, but then just deleted the graphics. It's a lot easier to delete a few game assets than to risk changing the code to remove a character, and these are likely last minute changes. At best, you just make the code conditional on some cheat code.

    If content is in a game, but hidden unless you go poking around the source code, chances are it's less because the devs were trying to be cheeky and more because content was axed late in development, when it would be easier to leave the content in and inaccessible, rather than try to pull it from the game's code and re-compile it. If it's in the game, but accessible via a cheat code (an actual code, mind, not a Game Shark or a device that makes the console read the game code differently) THEN it was deliberately left in.

    My "favourite" has to be how in Gundam Battle Assault 1 they took the Japanese title Gundam The Battle Meister 2 and gave it a fresh coat of paint for US audiences BUT since Gundam Wing was more popular in the West, they removed the Hamma Hamma from ZZ Gundam and replaced it with Wing Gundam. Unfortunately, rather than give it a new moveset, it was a mere spriteswap of the already in the game Zeta Gundam. Then when Gundam Battle Assault 2 came out, it was so heavily built off GBA1 that certain characters were fully coded ingame but lacked some final touches and were removed, only accessible by a cheat device. These were The O, Qubeley, Zeta Gundam (now redundant by Wing Gundam's inclusion), and poor the poor Hamma Hamma. It's a shame, since it was a real fun character to play as, and despite it being fully programmed and playable in both Battle Assault games, US and European gamers never got to actually use the character unless they had a cheat device.

    Is it possible that the "L" in the last entry was meant to stand for Lizzie, from the Midway game Rampage?

      @@williammiller3277 Contrary to what you seem to believe, subjective statements do not need to be preceded by "In my opinion" or any other qualifier. It is up to the reader to be literate enough in language and the basic nuances of human communication to tell subjective statements from objective statements, which you clearly did, yet went on to whine about anyways.

      It took me a second to realize what he was saying wasn’t what I thought I heard. A “Ham and Egger” is what the wrestling world normally calls a “Jobber” or “Enhancement Talent.” A wrestler who is booked to continually lose to build up the talent on the higher end of the card.
