Every so often, there is a game that we make a fuss over, discuss with our friends and roommates, and touch ourselves with thoughts of its potential, only to be left feeling like a cheap hooker that's still moist but hasn't climaxed.
Unfortunately, it's happened more often than we'd like, so we thought we'd take a look at some of the titles we still haven't lost that hankering to play. Granted, this list is coming from a guy who once plotted a road trip across country to storm Majesco when Jaws was on the verge of being canned (spoiler: the game sucks), just to get my hands on a dev copy. While that wound up being unnecessary, I'm just saying, don't f*ck with me.
So what games, if they magically arrived on our doorstep tomorrow, would we throw in our systems as though they were still the next big thing? Read on, brave souls.
10. StarCraft: Ghost
When this game was announced in 2002, it graced the cover of multiple game magazines, whet the appetites of those gamers that were anxiously awaiting a return to the StarCraft universe (and are still waiting...), and delivered a big heaping load of hype. And then four years went by, and that was that. The game was canceled - er, sorry, placed on "indefinite hold".
The game was going to follow Nova, a stealth operative that would have multiple platforming abilities, gadgets, and weapons at her disposal. Essentially, it was StarCraft on a more personal level. While Blizzard neglects to officially state the title is cancelled, come on. Let's face facts. But hey, at least StarCraft II, or at least one part of it (wallet rape!), will be out in "2010".
