► What happened to the original Deus Ex 3 by Ion Storm? Two Deus Ex sequels by Warren Spector and Ion Storm were cancelled in mid '00s. For more details: unseen64.net/2015/04/16/deus-ex-3-insurrection-cancelled-concepts As you may have heard, Deus Ex is a popular first-person action-RPG originally conceived by Warren Spector. There are currently four games in the main series: the first two were developed by under Spector’s watch at Ion Storm, while the third and fourth games were developed by Eidos Montreal.
But through a feature on Eurogamer back in 2014, it was revealed that Ion Storm actually worked on two alternative versions of the third installment - called Deus Ex: Insurrection and Deus Ex 3, respectively.
Deus Ex: Insurrection’s setting saw America falling into bankruptcy in 2027. Other rising superpowers, including China and Russia, were trying to take advantage of this situation and were bankrolling insurgents on US soil, while the European Union attempted to bring the US under its jurisdiction.
This first, third Deus Ex was to take place 25 years before the events of the original game, and saw you playing as Blake Denton, father of the first game’s protagonist, JC Denton.

Senjo no Demae Mochi (Battlefield: Home Delivery) is a cancelled “poetical pizza delivery game” that was in development by Microsoft Games Studio Japan around 2002 – 2003, planned to be released for the original Xbox. This weird project was conceived by Gabin Ito, who is mostly known for his works on Parappa the Rapper, Um Jammer Lammy and Cubivore. While not many details about Demae Mochi’s gameplay were shared, they described their project as a surreal pizza delivery game. It looked like a strange mix between Katamari Damacy, Crazy Taxi and Yume Nikki.
