Killer 7 [Proto / Beta]

Killer 7 is an adventure game developed by Grasshopper Manufacture and published by Capcom. It was released in 2005 but it was first announced in 2002 as one of the original “Capcom 5″ games. In 3 years of development the game changed a lot from its original concept trailer and when Killer 7 was finally released many parts of the story were removed.
None of the scenes from the first Killer 7 Trailer ended up in the final game. Garcian and Kaede smith look totally different from their final forms, and Harman Smith is wheelchair-ridden in the final game and only playable for a couple of sections throughout the entire story. The scenes with Dan Smith shooting the woman and Con Smith are never seen. We shudder to think what lost plot points and further story we would have gotten if that stuff would have stayed in there.

Awesome vid…one of my favorite games of all time. The strange thing is, none of these scenes ended up in the final game. Garcian and Kaede smith look totally different from their final forms, and Harman Smith (the guy in the hat) is wheelchair-ridden in the final game and only playable for a couple of sections throughout the entire story.
The scenes with Dan Smith shooting the woman and Con Smith (who isn’t dual-wielding uzis in the final game) are never seen. I shudder to think what lost plot points and further story we would have gotten if that stuff would have stayed in there.

Thanks a lot Dr. Swank! :) I still need to play the game (why i cannot find the GameCube version anywhere in Italy?) so i was not able to find the exact differences that there are in this early video.. i’ll add your description in the page! If i remember correctly, you can find the original script from the game at the K7S site:
