9 Cancelled Superhero Video Games That Would've Made Millions

9. The Avengers

Go big or go home is the phrase, but thanks to THQ folding right in the middle of various products, they went as big as Marvel's most lucrative property and then had to give up anyway.

A few chunks of footage are out there of this Avengers tie-in that was supposed to release alongside the movie. However, rather than be a third-person smash-fest like Radical Entertainment's Hulk: Ultimate Destruction, it was a first-person team-based battler that almost had a Left 4 Dead vibe as you tackle scores of enemies, combining attacks as you go.

Note the awesome-looking in-air move you could pull off as Hulk, and the rather violent finisher Banner does on a fallen Super Skrull, snapping its neck with his bare hands - a far more adult-orientated move than anything that's in the film. The Avengers bit the dust purely through the financial disaster that was THQ's later years (their Australian studio were putting it together), but why it hasn't been picked up since is anybody's guess.
