The control system would have been so cool on Dreamcast

The game that was supposed to be released on the dreamcast, and pissed gamers off, sometime in 2002, when it ended up on PS2, making them more disappointed and pissed, called Virtua Fighter 4. That was like, one of the heaviest hitting blows, to alot of sega and Virtua Fighter fans. :(

Soul Reaver 2 is another one.

Street Fighter EX 2 Plus

Daytona 2

Scud Racer :?

Outrun 2

Tekken 3.5 this was touted to be in development.

The gameplay of Tekken might not be great for alot of people, but I was curious to see Tekken 3.5 on dreamcast, with Soul Calibur styled graphics. Heck, it might have had a larger roster, of characters too. :)

F1 World Grand Prix 3 Online Edition. I forget to mention this one. Lol! There are so many cancelled games I could mention, but too much for me to write. :D

Agree with you: Soul Reaver 2 and Virtua Fighter 4 on my top. But Soul Reaver exists as a confirmed beta, so there is a chance it gets leaked someday. For VF 4 there is probably nothing, may be they used DC as a base for make easier the transition to PS2...Who knows.

Didn´t know about SF EX 2 and Tekken 3.5...Please tell us more. Anyway, thanks to Bleemcast, we actually have on DC something sort of similar to Tekken 3.5, with beyond perfect emulation of Tekken 3, with better resolution, AA, all the content and great gameplay! The only handicap is it needs an entire memory card for its own to save the progress.

Other canceled games the i really want to see on DC and there is at least confirmed betas are:

Commandos 2

Gunvalkyrie

Max Payne (there is an old 1999 IGN video)

Grand Prix 3 would be the Dreamcast's definitive F1 game. If only there was his source code out there it could be ported to the Dreamcast

I can't decide between Agartha or a completed Half Life with all the issues ironed out such as loading, saving, etc..

One of my all time favorite games is Black and White from Lionhead and I am so sad the Dreamcast port was never finished.

I love GP3 but just not as much as GP2. I was still uploading the mods for GP2 well into the 2000's.

Dreamcast Games you play Online: Phantasy Star Online V2.

I just want Phantasy Star Online Episode 2 ported to the Dreamcast. Would it really be that hard to do? I have read that episode 4 is massive in terms of memory and would be impossible, but episode 2 seems likely no? If your going for physical media it would just have to be on a second disc so you would have to choose which episode you would like to play before starting the game, but ripping and converting files from the Gamecube over to the Dreamcast and compressing them for example might be hard to do huh. Even if episode 2 is offline only I will take it! I just want to see central control area and play seat of the heart. Someone got to do it!  ;)

Oh and Cel Damage as well. I was and still am shocked this never made its way to the Dreamcast! It has the exact same cel shading vibe as Jet Grind/Set Radio and it came out in 2001 so its got the same year/era vibes as well. Someone needs to port this over to the Deamcast ASAP! I don't even care if its compressed a bit and what not!

Also the original Monkey Ball, but I have also read it was just to powerful during the time. So it probably won't see the light of day.

Yeah, the news on those two games back then, were a bit of a surprise. Apparently, not many people knew about it. I'll give some info about them, in my next post in this topic.
