>Rayman 4
>TimeSplitters 4

What cancelled game is likely to get leaked?

For me it will always be Mother 64. I need it - the final build for N64 if possible. It kills me that the GBA version was made instead, and that the Gigaleak didn't touch Hal's materials.

The close second would be Fire Emblem 64.

Not saying it wont happen, but the odds appear to be slim. Same with say, Ura Zelda.
>Fire Emblem 64
How long was that game in development before getting axed?
Speaking of Nintendo, I wonder if anything from Super Mario 64 2 exists?

Return to Ravenholm always interested me and finally seeing how far along it was before Valve just went, "we don't want to do episodic stuff anymore" really pisses me off. Especially when in the documentary they showed so much of it off and said how excited they were about it, then in the Half-Life doc Valve said Arkane had nothing going on and didn't know what they wanted to do. Just reeks of a bad decision on Valve's part.

I fully believe the idea that Majora's Mask cannibalized it after the one leak happened that had two early versions of Majora locations marked as DD in the Ocarina directory.

You talking about Return to Ravenholm made think that there hasnt been any leaks from TF2: Brotherhood of Arms, the closest thing we have was a Half-Life map that was used in promotional material. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/_4c86uEf4cw

This also is wild to me how no one has found this. Not to source Tyler McVicker, but he dug up that there was a closed beta build of Brotherhood of Arms that leaked years ago in wares groups, but is now lost.

Out of all Valve properties, Betas related to TF2 are the least likely to get leaked for some reason, we only know that TF2 Invasion exists because of the HL2 Leak.

That reminds me, in 2015, John Romero dumped the source files of Doom and Doom II onto to doomworld forums, one of the files was called "e5m1.dwd.", dated March 29, 1995, about a month before the release of Ultimate Doom. And this wall before SIGIL.

That's what Nintendo says and I believe it. They probably started making unique content for it, but then when Majora was shaping up to be the more impressive title (and the DD was obviously on the way out) they shifted stuff over to it. That's what I think at least although none of this has been confirmed outside of the DD prefix on stuff I mentioned.

The TL;DW is that back in 2002 a wares group had access to Valve's file sharing server and were able to take stuff off of it. They were able to grab a test build of TFC a few months before release which was found, but there was also a really early build of Brotherhood of Arms taken from 2002 that is now lost. They only found these forum posts about it a year ago and started looking since then, but realistically nothing will happen unless some member of that wares group hears about it and still has it on an old PC.

So they had a leaked build you could download? If so, why didnt this gain much more attention?

I probably would've hated Maverick Hunter as a kid for being so different from the NES platformers I loved. However, since I watched Twin Peaks Season 3 in my teenage years, I've become a huge fan of drastic reinventions in media. That show helped me realize that big creative swings can bring big payoffs, so I hope Capcom revisits Maverick Hunter someday.

Early internet and wares groups were quiet and private mostly. It also seems like from the posts that it was pretty buggy and not fun. More likely just got overshadowed by the Half-Life 2 leak a few months later.

I'm hoping they do. I'm more hoping that by then they'll have a Source 2 port or something ready to show off since there's a lot of references to 'TF' related stuff being imported into Source 2.

Looked like a fun casual game. Would have wanted to at least give it a try. But it was cancelled for Fallout 76.

I desperately want a beta build of OoT to come out, preferably one of the more Z1/LttP inspired builds from late 1996-early 1997, but a full dump of the 1997 Spaceworld demo would also be nice to fill in the gaps from the Overdump. I'm aware of the hack inspired by these builds, but news on it has been so rare that I don't have faith in it coming out anytime soon. My copium is that they're just being extra secretive and quiet since they took the bizarrely smart leap of being a Nintendo fan project team that AREN'T putting their names out there or trying to make money off it.

It didn't even look bad from the gameplay they showed. I don't understand why it was cancelled.

I just want an RPG set in the C&C universe. Think something like Fallout but better set in the C&C universe, set in a yellow / red zone with tiberium mutant creatures, mutants, NOD and GDI in the background fighting for control, you can pick and choose a side or no side at all. It would be fucking kino.

Read somewhere that you can cancel one of your own rounds as a way to piss off your opponent.

>Read somewhere that you can cancel one of your own rounds as a way to piss off your opponent.
Samurai Shodown 4 had something similar to this. You could commit suicide or run away (characters had different animations) to prematurely end the round and concede it to your opponent, with the idea being that you'd be denying them a "proper" victory. It also gave you automatic full Rage in the next round (unless it's your final loss of the match).

Tekken X Street Fighter.
Characters that are confirmed were Ryu, Chun Li and Dhalsim.
Apparently the fighting systems were already good to go, from the sounds of it, they just needed to add the characters and balance out the game.
I doubt that this game will ever come out.

Just to clarify, this was an early concept of SFV, obviously SFV does exist, but the early concept of the game gave a completely different tone.

>>723047328
>Why didn't this come out?
Nothing is confirmed but per Harada the game is about 30% done and it's not cancelled but it's being placed on "hold".
My guess is that Namco saw the abysmal sales of Street Fighter X Tekken and the critical reception and said fuck it.
Street Fighter X Tekken was doomed from the get go, Capcom had a gold mine in their hands and they just had to ruin it.

Nah, 2020s Capcom also blows, it's basically Inafune having the last laugh years later on his desire to expand their westernization. MH Stories 2 was the last semblance of Based Capcom IMO, just because it gave us the sexo gato and they KNEW she was sexo. They gave her a goddamn TEACHER costume, for fuck sake.

The gameplay concept was really interesting at a glance. Arkane was applying their lesson from their games like Dark Messiah into HL2 framework and it looks really good. Unfortunately they decided to restrict themselves by turning their HL game into a full zombie game, which is not the main focus of the series.

I feel like people have stopped digging into cancelled games much anymore. Like you can see the collective interest stopped at the cut-off point from the 8th gen onward. You don't see people discussing 'what could have been' with canceled games in the PS4/PS5 era. There are notable exceptions like Silent Hills and Bully 2, but that's about it.
