As an EX-warhammer player Gorkamorka for the Dreamcast has as always been something I would have liked to have seen.

The early character models for the N64 looked great, even better than the Playstation ones . It was part of what got me excited to buy a Nintendo 64 and part of what convinced me to buy the N64 near launch. I was disappointed when they went the Playstation route, although in hindsight, that was probably the best thing for them to do.
Are there pictures of this?

I'm think there's a trailer on YouTube. I'll see if I can find it for you.

EDIT: After a quick searck I found some tech demo footage.

I'd have loved to play "Neo Turf Masters 2" on the NeoGeo - I gather it was near completion before SNK went to the wall. Love "NeoTurf Masters".

This doesn't completely count as vaporware since you can download an ISO for this, but any love for "Thrill Kill" for the PS1?

I think that had the legs to become a franchise. Not a particularly good franchise, mind you, but a franchise nonetheless.

The gameplay is great even on the dreamcast, and I'll bet even better so with the mouse and keyboard.
There are a lot of addons and mods to Dreamcast Half Life.

How about Propeller Arena, killed because of 9/11. Combine Crimson Skies with Crazy Taxi.

Woop, sorry "Pulsar_t" just read back on the posts, seen you beat me to that "Unseen64" link.
Didn't mean to take away your fire.

Sadness for the Wii could have been cool. Too bad the dev went belly up.

Sonic 3D blast was a blast. And by blast I mean sucked. And by sucked I mean that I liked it at the time, being a sonic whore, but in retrospect it sucked.
