About this episode

The episode pays tribute to cancelled video games and discusses their development and marketing failures.

We gather here today with friends and family to pay our respects to the video games that were cancelled before release and never saw the light of day. What kind of god would do this? Didn't he want gamers to experience the polygon violence of the cancelled PS1 game "Thrill Kill"? Or learn the mystery behind why Clint Eastwood wanted to return for a cancelled Dirty Harry game for the Xbox 360? On today's episode we eulogize those video games we lost either from bad development, bad marketing or just being plain bad.
