NARC is an action game that was developed and published by Midway in 2005, for the Xbox and Playstation 2. A planned Nintendo GameCube version was later cancelled. The game’s source code (engine) dates back to the three-year-old State of Emergency but it was updated through the development. [Info from Wikipedia]

Vicente has noticed that in the early screenshots there are various beta differences:

  • The main character models (Marcus and Jack) were changed in the final game
  • The HUD was different
  • Marcus was known as “Hitman” in the beta
  • In a video there’s a chinese talking about the mission, not seen in the final game

Survivor was a “Disaster Survival” game that was in development at Replay Studios in 2004 for the original XBOX and PC. The player would have had to survive through “historical” disasters from the 20 – 21 th century, like the Titanic, Hurricane Andrew or the 9/11. The project was later cancelled, maybe because of the controversial scenarios.

Style Laboratory was a “simulation” game that was in development by Watermarks Ltd, for the original XBOX . It was shown at the Tokyo Game Show 2001, but in the end it was cancelled, maybe for the low sales of the  Microsoft console in Japan. Players would had assume the role a budding fashion designer, to dress up fashion models in accordance with the four seasons: spring, summer, fall, and winter. The goal was to become the top fashion designer in the world by the game’s end.
