    Dunno if you've seen it before but it's definitely worth a look.

    Right off the bat I'm gonna say...what, no Contra Spirits (N64)? Looks good though, lots of games listed!

    No mention of two games I REALLY wanted to play, Deuce for PlayStation and Picassio for GameCube?

    That list seems to be missing the Game Cube version of MTV's Celebrity Deathmatch

    They're missing all sorts of crap. Right off the bat I noticed they didn't add Dinosaur Planet for the N64 either. I know it basically became Starfox Adventure but why skip such a potentially hugh release? Especially a rare one.

    The story on Burn:Cycle for the Saturn was interesting. I wonder if they could have had the game span an extra disc. Square's Final Fantasy games for PS needed extra discs, but then maybe BC wasn't popular enough to justify the extra manufacturing expense.

    Awesome and sad list at the same time.

    Yet where's the Genesis list?

    Plus they forgot Resident Evil Zero N64
    These cartridges are dirty as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore!

    They list Kirby's Air Ride for N64, yet no Eternal Darkness or Dinosaur Planet (aka Star Fox Adventures). WTF?
    Mostly just play Nintendo 64. If you've got games PM me! Cart only.

    That was some interesting reading. I remember seeing little blurbs and screenshots for the SNES Steven Seagal game when I was younger.

    Ahh NBA Shootout 99 for PS1......... They sent out promo items and everything for preorders, and then they cancelled it! Sigh.... I remember many customers complaining that they had to purchase NBA Live instead... Stupid 989 Studios.. will you ever learn?

    Default are any of these games floating around, data-wise?

    i'm especially interested in the ps1 titles. i have a mod-chip and all and would enjoy playing even a demo-esque functional title.

    Another good site on this subject is

    http://www.gtw64.co.uk

    which features info on 622(!) canned Commodore 64 games. Some interesting stories like the one about the first version of Total Recall.

    There is also a site about cancelled PC games at http://pcgtw.retro-net.de It's just starting up so there aren't as many entries yet.
