10 Awful-Sounding Video Games That (Fortunately) Got Cancelled

1. Ashes Cricket 2013

Developer: Trickstar Games Year of cancellation: 2013 This one is a bit unusual, because Ashes Cricket 2013 was actually cancelled after it was released on Steam. The game got such a bad reaction from players and critics alike, that the publisher, 505 Games, cancelled the entire project. It was already clear that something was a bit wrong, when Ashes Cricket 2013 was released near the very end of the year in its title. This meant it totally missed the opening of the real-life Ashes series. The game itself was almost totally unplayable, thanks to bizarre bugs, ridiculous animations and nonsensical gameplay. Thankfully, 505 Games refunded everyone that had purchased Ashes Cricket 2013, before calling the whole project a write-off. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9zjGgau3iF8 Were you actually looking forward to any games listed here?
