    2 come to mind:

    Starcraft: Ghost - an FPS/stealth game a la Splinter Cell but set in the Starcraft universe? Sign me up.

    The Fable 1 that was promised vs what we got. Fable 1 was brilliant and I played the hell out of it, but peter molyneux made some VERY ambitious promises that could not be delivered on with the technology available at the time.

    Just getting a copy of Official Xbox magazine and seeing the first story about Fable 1 and how ALL of your choices would reflect in the game world - plant an acorn and watch it grow into an oak tree, wipe out a town and see it slip into disrepair and be reclaimed by nature - seemed so unreal and I was so excited.

    Damn you, Lionhead.

      Fable 1 aka Project Ego. That was one of the reasons I went with an Xbox over PS2. Like you said, still a great game but far reduced from what was initially promised

        Exactly the same reason I got an Xbox too, enjoyed Halo more than I ended up enjoying Fable when it eventually came out.

      This one still hurts me.

      Project Ego is nothing close to what we were sold.

      Still pissed at Molyneux for selling snake oil to a twelve year old me. I would have given my soul for the promised Fable. Seriously F Molyneux lol
