IGN: "Star Wars: 1313 has all the potential to be the best video game the franchise has seen in years."
From Star Wars 1313 to Battlefront III and Project Ragtag, these are the cancelled Star Wars games fans still wish had made it to release.
As a wise man once said: what be will, be will, and sometimes games just get canceled, whether it’s due to publisher meddling, a lack of funds or the creative vision simply not panning out.
Eight Days for me
Really would have enjoyed a buddy cop game with a Lethal Weapon like tone.
The only one that really bothered me was when Sony wouldn't fund Days Gone 2. That announcement made me literally feel nauseous. I felt sick in the guts. That's the first time Sony had done something that actually physically hurt me lol. I'm still bummed that there won't be a Days Gone 2.
I would have loved the getaway 3! The original is still one of my favourite PS2 titles
You can understand some games getting canceled, but these awesome looking games still baffle us to this very day.
"Tommy saving the planet from an army of aliens after they abducted him and his entire bar, with the game ending on the promise that Tommy would be back, but that promise was never fulfilled"
The thing is with the original Prey 2 that Tommy wasn't even the main character, they replaced him with some generic looking space bounty hunter. It was a refreshing change to see an awesome Native American character with ancestral like powers fight aliens yet they ditched him. It was only after an outcry they showed much later in a new preview that Tommy was in the game as an NPC.
I'd have prefered a real sequel with Tommy as the main character, literally picking right up from the originals ending.
As for Eight Days...Sony really needs to pick this up
If Amy Hennig was still at ND, I'd have loved to see her tackle it after what she did with Uncharted.
I thought that was awesome too, and honestly i wish people werent so damn critical about cultural variety in games. I feel like people try to ruin devs lives if even one detail is off about their culture in a game and so everyone is too scared to try anymore
One of the lead engine programmers for Prey 2 at Human Head was my programming instructor when i was taking game design. This game was in limbo at the time and we asked once and only once about this game, the misery in his eyes when he told us "this is the 1st and only time ill ask you to never ask me about that game" was something ill never forget😅 he used a couple assets through the curriculum for teaching purposes but nothing very tangible. Just a function here, a 3d prop there. Such a shame. Years later i saw him at a magic tournament, we caught up and he still thinks about that game and how it's "practically done" probably sitting on a drive somewhere
Practically done? Jeez that fking blows because that looked much more interesting then what bethsada made. Don't get me wrong I enjoyed the one bethsada made.
Lmno looked interesting.
I'd knock titanfall and fez off the list. Add something else. Scarface 2 man only if would've been awesome. Prey 2 should be higher to. Either way not a bad list. Out of 20 there's only 2 I'd hate on.
That gen got a lot of games canned right before the finish line. Cipher Complex, Battlefront 3, legacy of kain dead sun just to name a few
One that's not on the list is Killing Day, I remember seeing the trailer in 2005 and being impressed at the time. Being Ubisoft you know it would have been a AAAA game too, lol
2 Days to Vegas and The Getaway 3 are two other games that seemed promising but never came out.
To be honest, the video just looked more like Nathan Drake went to space and not much like it's a Star Wars game.
Even the train climbing scene is completely ripped in this gameplay footage they showed at Spike or whatever it's called.
I want a freaking good Star Wars, i want lightsabors and the sounds that they produce not the stormroopers' guns! come on Lucas. Even the cut scenes and the transition between that and the gameplay really felt like Uncharted.
And IGN have the nerve to say move over Drake lol.
Anyways, it's good they copy from Uncharted though, getting sick from all the freaking FPS. Will look into more information about this Uncharted: Space thieves.
And here we go... remember when IGN made that stupid article on Dark Souls kicking Skyrim's ass? All this is going to do is rile fanboys up and put this game in a negative spotlight.
Drake has moved. Now his name is Joel. Haven't you noticed, IGNorants? Also, the hype is notorious. It's nothing really that groundbreaking. On the contrary, Watch Dogs is. It has not only graphics but also fresh gameplay ideas.
Anyway, this SW game looks great. I hope it will come to the next gen consoles.
Funny, I'm thinking more like a tweaked Forces Unleashed engine that's not worrying about Jedi powers.
Star Wars games in most cases flop and I get tired of the hype and then it bombs, I reserve all judgement on SW's games after they release I will not get caught up in the
"this could finally be the one" hype
