Justice was a concept for a new game that was in development at Lionhead Studios, but not many information are available on it’s gameplay elements or story. From the few concept arts that remain from this cancelled project, it seems that Justice was set in a distant future, inspired by Blade Runner.
In 2008 Bottlerocket Entertainment were working on a licensed The Flash game for Brash Entertainment and DC Comics, but the project was cancelled when Brash closed down.
‘Superman: Man of Steel’ was the last known working title of an open world action game Factor 5 were working on for Brash Entertainment, which was being based around the legendary DC comics superhero license, Superman. It was planned to be made for the PS3, Xbox 360, and Nintendo Wii. Its initial codename was ‘Blue Steel’.
It seems that this project, a beat ’em up by Jailed Games, was going to be released on the PS2 and PSP, but it was later post-poned, development started again on the Xbox 360, and finally it was cancelled in 2006.
Career Criminal is an action game that was in development at Midway Austin (formerly Inevitable Entertainment) for the XBOX 360 and PS3, but later cancelled because it was too risky economically. It seems that the game would have been about stealing jewels / other precious stuff and it was set in a sandbox world. Sadly the studio closed its doors in December 2008, laying off the entire local workforce as part of a larger, company-wide, action.
As we can read on Kotaku, the president of Midway explained that: “The Career Criminal title was a large, ambitious, open-world project. Midway management recognizes that ambitious games need extensive resources and can require lengthy development cycles with much iteration. We are willing to invest in the long run and we need to continue developing new intellectual properties. But all of our projects have to demonstrate a likelihood of success and profitability. The resource needs, feature set, schedule and financial profile for the Career Criminal project were not converging towards a reasonable chance of success.”
