    Although the PS2 has over 2000 games in its library, I’m still annoyed that every one of these didn’t get released.

    I was very excited that you covered the Taxi Driver game. I read some articles stating that the game was supposed to be an expansion to the events of the fim & some details like if Travis killed pedestrians it would affect his mental health & ultimately commit suicide. I also found the execution system to be interesting eventhough the executions looked very goofy & unrealistic. I spoke to some hardcore fans of the film about this game & some didn’t like it because they felt that the game didn’t translate the films plot very well & doesn’t feel very taxi driver like. I haven’t watched the film, only saw clips of it, but i found the game to be very entertaining. What do you think?

    • @onaretrotip
      @onaretrotip  4 роки тому +2

      I think I'd agree that the game doesn't necessarily fit in line with Travis in the film; but I haven't played it, so can't really say. Love the film though!

    There are actually 3 Released PC Versions of "The Lost", each for a different market, each with a different name and each with a different main character. "Agni: Queen of Darkness" was, as mentioned in the video, the original Indian release. "Inferno: Where Death is your only Ally" was a East European release of the game and finally "NetherWorld: Beyond Time I Stand" is proper English release of the game, though I'm not sure in which markets that one was released.

    I'll never know why _StarGate_ doesn't get treated like, say, a _Batman Arkham_ game - it's a whole universe. Doesn't need to tied to any specific TV show, movie, or project; just make a video game _specific_ version of it all, that's got all the pillars people want from a _Stargate_ project. Someday, I hope someone attempts one again, and actually gets it done.
    Also, that story about JoWood and _Aquanox_ was CRAZY. I've heard of that game, but didn't know about why it was cancelled, or that they put in some bugs on purpose to buy themselves some more time to finish it. I've also heard of _GhostWorld_ by Z-Axis, but haven't heard of it in a few years - this is the first time I actually ever saw footage of it. Once again, you're killin' it with your research on these videos, buddy :)
    It's also just crazy to see stuff like _Deadlight_ in general, since *you just know* that kind of thing would've been made as an indie production nowadays. Heck, it's far more ambitious than most indie horror games nowadays, what with that whole "ecosystem of creatures" stuff and the vulnerability to different wavelengths of light - that is wild, original-ass stuff there! Some of these are real heart-breaking to hear about.
    I'm sure you've already heard of it, but in case you haven't, whenever you do another PS2 cancelled games video, you should look into _Silent Chaos._ It was going to be the sequel to an obscure PC adventure called _Dark Earth_ by French developer, Kalisto, who also did the _Nightmare Creatures_ games. What I found interesting about this is that Square picked it up for publishing, and they took special interest in it, going so far as to have Tetsuya Nomura redesign all the characters and the title took on an anime bent, visually. As far as I know, that's the only time they've ever thrown some of their Japanese talent at a western game.

    • @onaretrotip
      @onaretrotip  5 років тому +1

      Yeah, I agree. Stargate has such a rich lore and vast universe and characters, that it's perfect for a video game franchise. Weird, seeing as all the big sci-fi franchises have numerous games (Star Wars, Star Trek, etc) and Stargate is pretty big (having the film, ten seasons of SG-1, plus Atlantis, Universe, etc).
      Fingers crossed that one day it happens. In an ideal world I'd absolutely love a Fallout/Elder Scrolls style adventure game in the Stargate universe; that would be amazing.
      I love the concepts in Deadlight; some really interesting gameplay mechanics there.
      Not heard of Silent Chaos, but sounds interesting. I'll look it up. Thanks!

    • @onaretrotip
      @onaretrotip  5 років тому +2

      Indeed. I'm sure there are good reasons. There are a lot of retro cancelled games emerging, but perhaps that generation is a bit too advanced to make finishing a game financially viable for the indie scene.

    I can't say I ever watched Stargate SG1 but the footage you showed was undoubtedly impressive, which makes it all the stranger that it ended up being cancelled. As you say the set up for the show just fits a video game format, with infinite scope for level environments. Looks like it might've been something that could've challenged Halo for the PS2.
    Falcone sounded like an interesting idea but maybe one that was a generation too soon, I couldn't really see the PS2 being able to do all of the space combat and FPS pirate missions and still be a satisfying experience.
    Deadlight looked like an interesting one, offering something unique with its tweaks on the traditional FPS. It seems a lot of the others on the list might've been more generic PS2 titles, sticking more closely to what had already proved popular on the console.
    Hokuto No Ken looked great, definitely would've been nice to see that one although I'm guessing God Hand came close enough to scratching that particular itch. Still would've been nice to see though, especially with all the fan service included.

    • @onaretrotip
      @onaretrotip  5 років тому

      Yeah, Stargate seems perfect for a video game series, it's weird it never happened (beyond the average game on SNES/MD, although they were based on the film).
      Hokuto no Ken would have been one on my radar for sure back them. Still, there have been some pretty decent FOTNS games since!

    If anyone got sad seeing that Hydro Thunder style game that got cancelled, if you haven't tried it, Riptide GP Renegade is a pretty awesome game very-much inspired by Hydro Thunder. It's a somewhat of a budget title, so it isn't going to be the second coming of the game, but it is good fun while it lasts. Also, please note that Riptide GP 2 is a horrible mobile port, where-as Riptide GP Renegade is a game designed FOR current-gen hardware, so make sure you get the right one...

    Here are some more interesting cancelled PS2 titles (in alphabetical order):
    D.i.R.T.: Origin Of The Species - Developed by Nu Generation Games for PS2 & PC, this 3rd person action shooter sees you control an all-girl monster hunting team. Enemies include everything from zombies to giant crabs. Game was supposed to be released in 2005/2006, but got delayed & finally PS2 version was cancelled for some reason. Game was finally released in 2009 for PC. Here's a trailer: ua-cam.com/video/wnXt5rod07E/v-deo.html
    Fear Effect: Inferno - Developed by Kronos Digital Entertainment for PS2 only, the 3rd installment & a prequel to Fear Effect series, it tells the story how Hana & Rain met. Game was suppose to be released in 2003, but was cancelled, because of Kronos Digital Entertainment closure by Eidos Interactive. Trailer: ua-cam.com/video/aTHKXjePz-0/v-deo.html
    Fighting Force 3 - Developed by Core Design for PS2 & Xbox, the 3rd installment in beat 'em up series, was suppose to be released in 2003/2004, but was cancelled because of Core Design closure by Eidos Interactive (again!). There's no trailer, but there's a mini-doc: ua-cam.com/video/2nMOJKdrhOk/v-deo.html
    Galidor: Defenders Of The Outer Dimension - Developed by Asylum Entertainment for PS2, PC, Xbox & GBA (only GBA version was released) & based on LEGO toyline of the same name, it's a generic 3D platformer. To be released in 2002, game was cancelled by EA for unknown reasons. Trailer: ua-cam.com/video/WYeIvQ6j1YE/v-deo.html
    George Romero's City Of The Dead - Developed by Kuju Entertainment for PS2, PC & XBox & set in Romero's Living Dead universe, it's a 1st person action survival horror video game, where you control horror make-up legend Tom Savini as he's trying to escape the city infested by zombies. To be released in 2005 as a tie-in to Romero's Land Of The Dead, game was cancelled for unknown reasons. Trailer: ua-cam.com/video/qTjU7BzwNek/v-deo.html
    Mad Max: Asylum - Based on post-apocalyptic franchise created by director George Miller & producer Byron Kennedy. Melbourne House wanted to develop a Mad Max game for PS2, but they didn't have a licence. They created a short pitch-trailer to show Miller, but he didn't like it, because it was too similar to Mad Max: Fury Road, which entered development at the same time (it was 2001), thus canceling it. Can't find the trailer, so here's a doc: ua-cam.com/video/o0g5hvx1lwA/v-deo.html
