10 Awesome Cancelled Video Games We Still Want To Play

9. Psychonauts 2

115887-psychonautsWhy We Want To Play It: The original Psychonauts was a clever, witty, ground breaking platform title which was release at a time when gamers were growing up and first person shooters were the craze. Who wouldn€™t want a follow up to that? Minecraft creator Markus €œNotch€ Perrson totally does. Why We Never Will:During its time on consoles, Psychonauts shipped less than 100,000 copies. The lackluster sales motivated publisher Majesco to switch their attention to lower budget casual games. Notch himself, who originally wanted to contribute funding to Psychonauts 2, backed out this year due to the amount of money it would take to make the game. The silver lining is that creator Tim Schafer has seemed to regain some interest in revising a sequel and may look into funding it in the future.
