Dinosaur Planet (N64) has to be one of the cancelled games (well kinda cancelled - actually was taken to Gamecube and changed into Starfox Adventures) that has fascinated me most. There is so much info but nobody will ever get really get to play it in it's true form.
These kind of forever lost games fascinate me.

TFLO was leaked? I would be way interested to see this.

I thought I read a number of years ago that there was the followup to secret of mana was almost translated but it was stopped due sales or something. I could be totally wrong though, maybe I was thinking of a fan translation. Would that count?

I dont think this game qualifies as one that will be lost forever
Well true
But I would love to play it in it's original form, looked fantastic and I think It would have had a much better reception than it did with Star Fox bolted on.It wasn't, and will be very difficult to come across.
It was something about wanting to mark a clear distinction of the generational gap between the SNES and N64. The advanced visuals of Star Fox 2 was percieved to have some kind of mitgating effect on the impact the N64 would have. Pretty dumb to cancel a basically finished game over that, yeah, but I can see the big picture of the reasoning.
I don't really consider game preserved if it's in the hands of a private collector.
Like how fansites scoured the web for every tidbit of info about RE1.5 but was still no substitute for the real thing being made public.

Then you don't know me. Just because piracy is one of the few methods now, it won't be forever, and does have the potential for doing harm.

I loved blur. I will never forgive Activision for killing Bizarre creations.

Wasn't there a GBC version of RE1 that got leaked?
I miss the hell out of that game. So much fun.
Long Live the Queen kinda rekindled the flame, but it was more of a visual novel than an RPG/simulation.

Halo MMO!
BTW create the thread about this project revived into the f2p Halo Online (proof in Russian http://kanobu.ru/news/343-studios-anonsirovali-multipleernyij-shuter-halo-online-dlya-pc-375925/) that was announced right about now here in Russia by Innova Company. I just can't create new threads.

Tiny Toon Adventures: Defenders of the Universe
A Tiny Toons game for PS2, developed by Treasure, originally slated for release in 2001 but shelved forever for unknown reasons. A feature-complete and practically final build (aside from a few text errors) leaked onto the net years ago, however.

I never understood why activision closed them. It isn't like racing games fell off the face of the earth. The most obvious answer was to merge Blur with a skylander type game. Imagine instead of skylanders, you bought highly detailed cars to place on a pad and race them in game? It seemed like a natural.

So Bizarre was doing Split Second 2?
Oh wow, had no idea about this. Always loved Buster Busts Loose and Wacky Sports Challenge on the SNES.

What happen is that Warners animation completely imploded in 2000 / 2001 and plans for a new Tiny Toons series was shelved. They tried to restart in 2003 to go along with Back in Action but it flopped. Apparently there are finished parts of episodes from 2001 and 2003 but they are buried in Warner's vaults. Without the show as a tie in, they decided it wasn't worth finishing and producing the game. These days, it might have made it to digital.

I played a ton of Buster Busts Loose on the SNES. Probably one of my favorite games for that system.

I remember reading that Rockstar were going to do a Mods vs Rockers beat em up game set in 1960's Britain, think Quadrophenia crossed with The Warriors, I wonder why that got scrapped.
From what I understand... bizarre was an out of control studio... had problems with both MS and Activision... can get away with that when you're successful...

Good mentions so far.
Mine's Gauntlet for the DS. Watch Double Fine's Devs Play episode to find out more about its history straight from the horse's mouth. This game was basically a finished product and then simply not officially released. Very sad for fans of the series. It even has functioning multiplayer, which the video also demonstrates!

Thinking back to E3 2012 and the Star Wars: 1313 trailer. I was pretty bummed when that was cancelled. Hopefully whatever EA / Amy Hennig is working on is of the same caliber.

Always wonder what happened. Game looked like this at first.
Hot damn, a Final Fantasy Smash Bros. Would take this over Dissidia's combat any day.

Bolded for truth. I wanted that game so damn much. So sad it was canned.
Media of a game on one site vs an iso populated on every download site known to man and in the hands of thousands of gamers. Which one's more likely to be lost over time?

Oh there once was a time where I would stress about a canceled Peter Molyneux. A much more naive time filled with endless optimism. Believing that great games would come out if only evil publishers would let creative types have their way.
I doubt BC was ever close to finish but I wish a game like it would be put into development someday.
