You know, like games you've either read a great preview about and then disappeared off the face of the world, or for whatever reason you've forgotten they existed.

For me, that game was 'The Movies'. I'm guessing it had something to do with 'Sims 2'? And probably also the fact that game - need to valify - it has been in development for 2 years. Still not out yet.

Anyway, anyone else?

There was that Duke game... forgot what it was called but I've been waiting for like Forever and just ended up forgetting about it amidst HL2, Doom 3, Halo 2, Far Cry and all the others.

I've never really anticipated and then forgetten about a game, but I have been extremely let down by a highly anticipated game, namely SRS.

So much possiblity, so much promise, so shitty gameplay.

The Irishman, too, picked the fly out of his drink but then held it out over the beer and yelled "SPIT IT OUT, SPIT IT OUT, YOU BASTARD!"

GTA: SA. I was really excited about it, but I have yet to play it except briefly at a friend's dorm room. Too many other games I guess. . .

FngKestrel

Yeah, Duke Nukem : Forever. After multiple delays over a few years, we started calling it Duke Nukem Taking Forever.

That, and Team Fortress 2.

AngelicVampire

MGS3, Metroid Prime:Echoes, got exams and until they are over I am not buying any more games!

Macheath

I kinda forgot about KOTOR 2 last week...for about ten minutes.

I'm trying NOT to think about GTA:SA until the PS2 exclusivity runs out.

CityOfAngels

This isn't a game, but I remember anticipating "The Activator" for Sega Genesis. It was that thing where you control the game with your arm movements by moving them over various sensors. I was soooooo looking forward to kicking Kano's ass with actual punches and kicks. I brought it home, hooked it up, and sure enough, it was a piece of crap. I took it back and exchanged it for Shadowrun (Genesis) and Young Merlin (SNES); both games became favorites of mine.

Yea, Duke Nukem Forever. I'm still waiting!

DarkPho

I would tell you about it.. but i've forgotten.

FngKestrel

The Activator! I remember that thing. Big old octagon on the ground. Inspiring HID at the time. One day...one day...

Duke Nukem Forfuckingever! If this game does not blow every other game before it out of the water, I will be dissappointed. I want HL2 to look like Daikatana compared to it, after waiting this long, I expect no less. Hopefully we will see this game in the next 20 years.

Coppertop

There ya go.

Scorps

Metroid Prime 2 Echo's

But I saw a commerical last night and it remembered me


And Sims2, but November is the biggest month(well 2004 is the biggest years) for game ever.

its so hard to remember/afford all the games!

klo

GT4... I almost forgot about it, after they delayed it by a a year and half almost or even more.

freddy b

duke nukem forever
although they say it's coming real soon !

bltzkriegmcanon

Metroid Prime 2: Echoes. I have been playing it some, but nowhere near as much as WoW. That goes for GTA:SA as well. I even brought my cube home to play MP2, and have yet to touch it the whole weekend. Ah well.

This year it has to be MGS3 and KOTOR2. I blame it on Halo 2.

Starcraft: Ghost. We're looking at June, 2005 now. I remember watching the blizzard.com countdown and getting marginally excited about the game, but by next summer, it probably won't capture my interest at all.

Ustwo

Hehe I forgot about that one too.

There was a lot of hype about this game in 98-99. It was due out in 2001 but i didn hear anything. Then out of know where it comes out in spring of 03 and is sporting only a fraction of what they said it was going to be. It as an OK game...but fell short of all the hype....
