There is that title Ubi are working on which is probably the next closest thing. Of course, it's Ubisoft so who knows when it will actually release etc. but from what I've seen of it, I'm quietly optimistic that it will be a solid title.
Love how this video progressively made me more depressed with every entry. Made me feel like my hope of the games releasing were my fist, and the very existence of the games were the sand.
Wow, never actually heard of some of these. Obviously, SW1313 and PT are there, but a Daredevil game and 19th century Batman? Those sound amazing. Really hope something can come of them in the future, with Rocksteady having Arkham success and Insomniac making Spider-Man and Wolverine. Maybe DD can even appear in SM3
5:00 they also had a playable version of that trailer. wich was amazing at the time of prerendered scenes, as it featured every gameplay element the trailer showed.
Yes!! You finally talked about the daredevil game and the last LOK game!! I've been waiting for years!! You should include the flash cancelled game, it was going to use every resource of speeds in games to make people feel like they were the fastest man alive.
Man the world at war game play just brought back waves of nostalgia. Getting the ray gun on the first map was something else. I was adiment that you could get the ray gun on every level. I mean why have an Easter egg at the start to get the ray gun and not allow you to find one in every level. To get them end credits after beating the game on veteran(and if you haven't well has to be hands down the hardest cod to do veteran, the grenade icons are hell)and feeling amazing to only get "that" cut scene of the zombies was hair raising.
Honestly surprised Prey 2 wasn't higher on the list, considering how far along it seemed like the game was at the time. That trailer still kicks major ass.
That doesn't matter at all. It's a basic quality of life addition that doesn't affect engagement that only betters the experience for the viewer. Not supporting something so... simple... is asinine. It's just laziness. @@AndreHeitor666
I have to agree with @@AndreHeitor666 on this one. I know I've been guilty of only wanting to see if a certain game was on a list. If it were divided into chapters then I would only watch the chapter I was interested in, and skip the rest for the sake of saving time.
for context Kojima was in the middle of both Silent Hills and MGS5 at the time. konami released MGS5 with only two 3rds of the game complete and was going to release part 3 as DLC. Kojima was so mad about them releasing a game he had not finished he just walked out on them.
Starcraft Ghost will forever be the game I think of in this kind of category. Havind read the books, I love Nova as a character. And her story campaign in SC2 is just a perfect example of how a third person shooter game following her would be awesome.
Highlander This Cancelled Game Still Hurts Imagine characters like Connor MacLeod & Duncan MacLeod voiced by their Original actors even that chick from Highlander The Raven a deep cut what could've been
Prey 2 is so heart breaking to this day! The “revamped” prey that had nothing to do with the universe I fell in love with playing the first prey and what we were teased with that trailer still hurts to this day. That game would have been infinitely better! I’m very glad it made the list! I liked the jab that fallout 76 was good enough to release but Prey 2 had to be scrapped 🤭
Before i watch this, Scalebound has to be on here. No other game even comes close to goty probably than that. Maybe star wars 1313 or whatever it was called.
You mean Johnny Cash's cover of Soundgarden' "Rusty Cage" (which btw was in original in the soundtrack of my favourite racing game of the 90s - "Road Rash", along with a lot of other amazing heavy metal tracks).
Hey Jess, I don’t know if you have forgotten, but Indiana Jones and The Staff of Kings was NOT cancelled! It was originally going to be released for the PS3 and Xbox 360, but it got changed over for the PS2 and Wii.
As I understand it, "Fear over quality" was Bethesda's given reason for why they cancelled Prey 2, but the actual reason was that they wanted to purchase the developer, and the developer didn't want to be purchased. So, they more or less cancelled the game out of spite. No idea if that's accurate or not, but worth looking into.
The Rainbow 6 Patriots Teaser & all the controversy around it. got leaked, then there was an official trailer/demo to circumvent the leak. and that was it.
Scalebound was the first game that came to mind when I heard the title of this list. I was so salty this game was cancelled after Microsoft spent so much time hyping Scalebound.
The problem with L.A. Noire is that it was deceptively marketed. That may have been good for it’s initial sales but in the long term I think it hurt it critically and perhaps commercially as well. Most people though they were getting a Rockstar GTA style game set in that time period.
@@DoctorSess While I did get some GTA vibes with it, I felt it was trying to be unique. That may have hurt it. I had been playing GTA games for a couple years before I first bought and played L.A. Noire in 2014. My first GTA game was San Andreas and I first played that back in 2009 after I turned 18. I thought L.A. Noire was something different from anything I ever played before.
@@satoshiserena4843 yeah the game itself was not GTA at all really but it was marketed that way to a degree. People were lead to believe it would be something like an old detective GTA. Personally I like the game because it was something so different. That gets my respect alone.
Freedom Fighters 2 is still at he top of my list. After reading it was scrapped to make the Kane and Lynch games I decided to never play any Kane and Lynch game.
Now I remember when the psp best known as PlayStation portable Indiana jones and the staff of kings came out on that one I mean it was good for the fans but I can remember playing that game when it came out
Do they live underneath a rock? Because Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings was not canceled but was moved over to the Wii and PS2. The PSP port is the better version of the game, because it doesn’t incorporate motion controls into the WHOLE game like the Wii Version does.
Every titles idea on that list is still very interesting. Maybe they will come in some kind out as long as they not going they gotham nnight way; a game full of great ideas which executed with a almost desperate addiction to shout out "different" ... instead of delivering quality, just different isn't better sometimes just clunky. Gaslight, 1313,,Indiana Jones still interesting
If it was canceled I highly doubt it was going to be GOTY. Well I guess if budget was an issue it wasn't necessarily a problem with the game itself. Didn't Daredevil actually get released? You can probably play it on a modded PS2. They cancelled Prey 2 due to fear of it's quality? How the hell did Fallout 76 get approval? 6:44 Don't you mean 19th century? Jack the Ripper was around in 1888.
I have never been more triggered than with the sentence "the Johnny Cash song Rusty Cage" (despite it kind of being correct), but Prey 2 could have been wonderful.
I would have loved it if Flashback 2 side-scroller platform game (there's a yt video of the unreleased game) was released for the SNES instead of the awful 3d thing they did release. Also the travesty of not releasing the N64's Goldeneye on the Xbox original, though they made it.
Its pretty damn presumptuous to assume games that were never even completed would've been game of the year quality. Potentially great, sure, but GOTY is a stretch.
Disney and EA, the two largest destroyers of beloved franchises, especially game franchises. Konami is just as bad these days...focusing ONLY on Japanese "Slot Machines," causing many beloved franchises, like Castlevania....to die. If you're not going to use your IPs, SELL THEM TO THOSE WHO WOULD!!!
Star Wars 1313 cancellation was soo heartbreaking 😢
I know. Hearing what the game was looking like and it was gonna rated m. I was all up for it. darn you Disney
Disney and EA are a bunch of **ck suckers on Star Wars 1313 so will never see it
As someone who isn’t that much of a Star Wars fan, the cancellation of 1313 definitely bummed me the tf out.
I know & they just reused the assets just 2 make fallen order & survivor
There is that title Ubi are working on which is probably the next closest thing. Of course, it's Ubisoft so who knows when it will actually release etc. but from what I've seen of it, I'm quietly optimistic that it will be a solid title.
The Sleeping Dogs sequel could've been amazing, just bigger and better than the first with even more amazing combat animations.
I remember playing the PT demo over and over. To this day, it's still the scariest thing I've ever played.
Scalebound had so much potential
@@Joreelthat’s because supposedly it is getting revived
Love how this video progressively made me more depressed with every entry. Made me feel like my hope of the games releasing were my fist, and the very existence of the games were the sand.

There was a hour of various gameplay footages here on youtube.
Yes!! You finally talked about the daredevil game and the last LOK game!! I've been waiting for years!! You should include the flash cancelled game, it was going to use every resource of speeds in games to make people feel like they were the fastest man alive.
Legacy of Kaine, such a divine game.

That daredevil joke was CRAZY.
Honestly surprised Prey 2 wasn't higher on the list, considering how far along it seemed like the game was at the time. That trailer still kicks major ass.
Why don't you guys use video chapters to split up your top 10 lists?
Because then everyone would hover over, see the titles and watch the video in 30 seconds
That doesn't matter at all. It's a basic quality of life addition that doesn't affect engagement that only betters the experience for the viewer. Not supporting something so... simple... is asinine. It's just laziness. @@AndreHeitor666

They were fed up with him before mgs 5
I'm not sure it would have been "Goty" but I was really looking forward to Stargate SG-1: The Alliance.
Me 2 😢
You left out Days Gone 2. Looked awesome.
How could you forget about Starcraft Ghost!!!
Yes the actually kept production until 2016 that was a sad loss for a great title
Starcraft Ghost will forever be the game I think of in this kind of category. Havind read the books, I love Nova as a character. And her story campaign in SC2 is just a perfect example of how a third person shooter game following her would be awesome.

Pirates of the Carribean

in the case of 1313 ... at least we will be getting SW: Outlaws ... and we got Cal Kestis out of it
Except Outlaws is hot garbage
Starcraft Ghost deserved to be on this list or at least an honorable mention
I bought an Xbox just for that game. Still a little bitter about it being canceled.
@@stevenb3803I remember it being the only Craft game that I wanted. I thought the graphics were gonna look so clean on Gamecube.
Two games that could have made the list
> Starcraft: Ghost
> Darkwatch 2
The Rainbow 6 Patriots Teaser & all the controversy around it. got leaked, then there was an official trailer/demo to circumvent the leak. and that was it.
I wanted Megaman Legends 3
Faith And A .45 deserves to be on all these “what could have been” lists.
Who knows? Maybe someday any of these listed games will be revitalized and released as actual games. Better late than never.
It sounds like most of these games are finished. They could be released like Star Fox 2.
Yo, my HIGH ass thought the dirty harry games was a Ace Ventura game, and I would've been all for that!
Scalebound was the first game that came to mind when I heard the title of this list. I was so salty this game was cancelled after Microsoft spent so much time hyping Scalebound.
Maybe 3 of these would have actually had a shot, especially since horror, like in film, is often shunned for awards.
4:04 "...and it would never see the light of day. Not unlike its protagonist." Wow, that was dark (pardon the pun lol)! 😅😂
I enjoyed L.A. Noire so the Dirty Hairy game might have been a game I would have enjoyed. I feel L.A. Noire is an under-appreciated game.
The problem with L.A. Noire is that it was deceptively marketed. That may have been good for it’s initial sales but in the long term I think it hurt it critically and perhaps commercially as well. Most people though they were getting a Rockstar GTA style game set in that time period.

Orient had a HUGE GameInformer spread back in the day... looked rad as I recall
Freedom Fighters 2 is still at he top of my list. After reading it was scrapped to make the Kane and Lynch games I decided to never play any Kane and Lynch game.
I remember backaday a game called ‘Faith & .45’ looked really good then unfortunately got the cancellation treatment
Now I remember when the psp best known as PlayStation portable Indiana jones and the staff of kings came out on that one I mean it was good for the fans but I can remember playing that game when it came out
Do they live underneath a rock? Because Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings was not canceled but was moved over to the Wii and PS2. The PSP port is the better version of the game, because it doesn’t incorporate motion controls into the WHOLE game like the Wii Version does.
Triad wars aka sleeping dogs 2 would’ve been one of the greatest games of all time
I feel the Prince of Persia remake deserves and honorable mention here
how we got 20k likes but only 583 views the math ain’t mathin
Sleeping dogs 2 got scrapped too just worth a honorable mention
Star Wars Battlefront 3!
1:09
"The City of Lights" is Paris, not Las Vegas.
I'm surprised Scalebound didn't make the list
Starcraft: Ghost
I was sooooooo pissed when I found out that was cancelled.
A vision mechanic in a game about a blind superhero? Interesting.
Maybe not GotY material however I would have loved to see 3DO's Horsemen of the Apocalypse and the Highlander game both get released.
Gameranx would've mentioned Fable Legends and Scalebound
Nevermind cancelled, I'm growing old waiting for the wolf among us 2
The getaway 3.
Megaman legends 3
Cancelling Silent Hills was bad enough, but removing PT from the online stores was just adding salt to the wound
Tomb Raider Ascension is my pick, a survival horror inspired Tomb Raider game? Sign me the f up
The rated M, Darth Maul & Talon game was once real right 😂😅
Someone make bully 2 I take fan made version at this point 😂
Eight Days looked so badass.
The highlander game would have been awesome.
*would have
Every titles idea on that list is still very interesting. Maybe they will come in some kind out as long as they not going they gotham nnight way; a game full of great ideas which executed with a almost desperate addiction to shout out "different" ... instead of delivering quality, just different isn't better sometimes just clunky. Gaslight, 1313,,Indiana Jones still interesting
Scalebound would be better than most of these.
I wanna see a Mandalorian Video Game
Even if Indiana jones had released on PS3 and 360, it would’ve been middling at best and I actually like Staff of kings
Overstrike would have been amazing over Fuse
CoD is the only game to have pulled off a historical setting to mass success? Assassin’s Creed would like a word.
Wait Nintendo already made dirty Harry... What a game.
harker! City of the dead by george romero! Dead rush!
Does this mean Beyond Good and Evil 2 isn't cancelled yet?
StarCraft Ghost!
If it was canceled I highly doubt it was going to be GOTY. Well I guess if budget was an issue it wasn't necessarily a problem with the game itself.
Didn't Daredevil actually get released? You can probably play it on a modded PS2.
They cancelled Prey 2 due to fear of it's quality? How the hell did Fallout 76 get approval?
6:44 Don't you mean 19th century? Jack the Ripper was around in 1888.
Johnny Cash version of Rusty Cage.
No mention of Scalebound? 😭😭
I have never been more triggered than with the sentence "the Johnny Cash song Rusty Cage" (despite it kind of being correct), but Prey 2 could have been wonderful.
Surprised Starcraft Ghost wasn't on here.
I see a universe where Daredevil was released and it bombed. WTF is that, Marvel's Pro Skater?
I was so mad when then cancelled silent hills
Pirates of the Caribbean
I would have loved it if Flashback 2 side-scroller platform game (there's a yt video of the unreleased game) was released for the SNES instead of the awful 3d thing they did release. Also the travesty of not releasing the N64's Goldeneye on the Xbox original, though they made it.
COULD have been … plenty games being hyped and ended up horrible.
Looks like daredevil stole assets from Jet Set Radio Future.
5:15 assassins creed?? Lol
No Starcraft: Ghost on the list?
Title should have been could've not would've
Spiderman still beat daredevil with the ps1 spiderman game. That looked awful. Game of the year you must be ob some strong drugs
Imagine an indiana jones game by naughtydog & (the old) lucasarts.
legacy of kain? if that game were released if would have been an interesting one
Its pretty damn presumptuous to assume games that were never even completed would've been game of the year quality. Potentially great, sure, but GOTY is a stretch.
The Star Wars game that would’ve featured Darth Maul with Arkham combat would have been Heaven
karyudo the videogame
Clicked so fast
What does goty mean?
Game of the year weird cuz they use that 2 rerelease games with a epic dlc disc
"Goaty"

I really wish people would get over star wars 1313. The last GREAT star wars game was KOTOR.
A Whatculture game list with PT as number one… Take a drink
We all knew Silent Hills would be no1
Days gone 2 😢
