Dead Rush [XBOX/PS2/GC – Cancelled]

deadrushlogo.jpg

Dead Rush was a cancelled video game that was designed by Treyarch and would have been published by Activision. The game would have taken place in the town of Eastport where a massive earthquake has destroyed most of humanity. As Jake, a character suffering from memory loss, the players job was to try and find out exactly what happened in Eastport, which is now overflowing with zombies.

The game’s main claim to fame was the fact that as Jake players could operate one of several vehicles scattered around town. Not only would this provide the player with a means of transportation but it would also serve as armor of sorts. The zombies in Eastport would try to wreck whatever car Jake was driving. Luckily the player could create new vehicles out of parts of previously demolished cars.

The game would have featured few load times, as after an initial boot up the game would never pause to load data from the disc again. The game was announced at E3 2004 and set to be released in 2005. It was cancelled shortly thereafter. [Info from Wikipedia]

Gaming Conviction did an interview with Gideon Emery who was the voice of Dead Rush’s main character Jack:

GC: I read that you did the voice of a character named Jake in a cancelled game in 2005 called Dead Rush. Do you remember any details about the character?
GE: It was the lead character in a game and I was thrilled to book it. Don;t recall much. I had one recording session, then heard nothing. Later I learned the game was shelved as it wasn’t developing to the level or speed that they wanted. What I do remember was being very disappointed, as it would have been my first true lead.

Stargate SG-1: The Alliance [XBOX PS2 PC – Cancelled]

Stargate SG-1: The Alliance is a cancelled FPS based on the Stargate TV series. The project was never released, but a playable PC version was found by The Gaming Liberty  and they started to share as much as they can from this lost game. This version seems almost finished and as we can read from their preview, it could have been a great game especially for Stargate fans. Thanks to Denis from The Gaming Liberty for the contribution!

Joust 3D [XBOX/PS2 – Cancelled]

In July 2000 Midway Games West started development on a 3D revival of the well-known arcade classic “Joust”. Joust 3D (flying simulation/shooter) was said to be released in 2002 for PS2, Xbox and GameCube. Quality issues were the reason for the game’s cancellation in May 2001.
Some years later, the same team brought us the not-so-bad Dr. Muto.
