Sometimes game developers can overestimate the potential success of their product, and in the case of Hellboy: The Science of Evil, this kind of optimistic prognosis has led to the creation of achievements that no one will ever be able to get.

The 2008 Hellboy game features a number of secret achievements that cannot be unlocked even after the player has reached 100% completion. Why? Because the achievements are connected to the game's DLC, which has never actually been released.

Though the developers were planning on making extra content for the game, its poor performance, lack of popularity, and less-than-average reviews forced the company to scrap all projects related to the game and then abandon it altogether.

What the players were left with in the aftermath of this decision was a painfully incomplete list of achievements that would forever haunt their profile page. The worst part is that because the achievements are secret, you can't even tell what exactly you would've had to do in order to get them.

Well, actually, perhaps it's for the best. The less you have to think about this cursed title, the better.
