What cancelled game are you still the most bitter about ?

Yeah this is Silent Hills thread. I'm happy that Kojima is experimenting and trying to create something unique with Death Stranding, but the cancellation of SH still hurts a lot. Just the thought that we were getting a horror game directed by Kojima in collaboration with del Toro was super hype.

I can't really think of anything I really wanted that got cancelled.

Castlevania: Resurrection on Dreamcast, looked very interesting and a damn shame we never got it.

This, maybe, since I'm a huge CV fan as well as a DC owner, but the mediocre 3D games they put out on PS2 after Resurrection was cancelled made me feel like we probably didn't miss out on all that much in the end.

It wasn't even an announce game ( at least for the US), but Capcom pissed me off when they showed off that dog version of the Great Ace Attorney.

Was beyond annoyed that was only an April's Fool joke.

Silent Hill being cancelled still hurts. It looked incredible and was one of my most hyped games before it got cancelled

Half-Life 2 Episode 3.

How Valve decided to just not finish the last expansion with THAT cliffhanger is so damn annoying.

Resident Evil 3.5. It was probably my most wanted game ever, and it crushed me when it resurfaced as an action game that had little to do with the series up to that point. RE4 is still awesome in its own right, but it wasn't the RE4 I wanted.

Silent Hills is my second choice.

Prey 2017 is still my favorite game but yeah, I gotta go with Prey 2. Fuck Bethesda forever for the shit they tried to pull there, and it wasn't the first time.

Star Wars 1313 and Amy Hennig's Star Wars game.

I'm so glad Fallen Order didn't get canned. It looks amazing and I can't wait to get my hands on it.

I am in the Silent Hills camp, altho I remember being way more hyped for Prey 2! just because it felt like such a fun world to immerse in.

Mega Man Legends 3 was some dirty ass shit on Capcom's part. i've never even played an MML game before, have no nostalgia tied those games but after the whole affair i was like, damn man, really?

Mega Man Legends 3 and Zone of the Enders... Not actually canceled but never made would be Chrono Trigger 2.

Silent Hills is the correct answer.

A game produced by Hideo Kojima,
co-directed by Guillermo Del Toro,
starring Norman Reedus,
in a once ground breaking horror series in desperate need of a revival after several lackluster sequels,
with the budget of a AAA title,
AND was revealed with a playable teaser that while being only half an hour long still stands as one of the scariest pieces of entertainment in years?

FUCK Konami.

That Pirates of the Caribbean game looked pretty cool. I'm also sad about Everquest Next just because it looked so cool, though that one i'm less sad about because I highly doubt Daybreak could have pulled it off well.

Can I count Alien: Isolation 2? A sequel was never announced but the sales of the game certainly didn't help the idea that a sequel was ever to be made. :(

Guild Wars: Utopia. I'm more bitter about what Arena Net did with Guild Wars 2 though than the cancellation of that fourth campaign. They reworked it into Eye of the North, which is something at least and as someone else in the thread said, we got Guild Wars: Beyond content too in the years leading up to GW2's release - even if that comprises mostly reused assets and enemies with quirky builds! But Utopia would have been a greater addition to the game I like rather than the consolation expansion it became and Utopia's cancellation also signalled the company's switch in direction with a sequel that I not only hate but is one only in name and lore.

Edit: thinking about where Guild Wars 1 could be now if they had stuck with it all these years is pretty heartbreaking.

Sure it's probably been surpassed by other mmo's and would have been dead by now but i think back to how much I loved Xbox Live back then and how absolutely amazing it would have been if this released. The memories I would have made.

This is the first thing I thought of when seeing the thread title, and you nailed my exact thoughts on why.

Van Buren/Fallout 3. Though New Vegas using so much of that design really softens that one.
Fallout Tactics 2.
That Brothers in Arms game that was going to take inspiration from Inglorious Basterds

Not really a cancelled sequel, but there are so many IPs that are just dead and collecting dust at some big shitty publisher. Arcanum and Ultima especially.

Nothing will ever measure up to the pain of wanting a sequel to Mega Man Legends 2 for a decade but knowing you'd never get one, only for Capcom to ACTUALLY announce one, show off a demo, and then cancel it.

Going from misplaced hope, to real hope, to pure despair.

This will never stop stinging.
