Black & White Creatures | Unreleased for DS First 10 Minutes PtoPOnline 2021-02-21 | As always, please remember this has nothing to do with my job in game preservation. The first 10 minutes or so of an early build of Black & White Creatures, the unreleased Nintendo DS game! It's an early build, even clicking on the menu options can be tough. Played on the IS-Nitro-Emulator, so real DS capture!Follow on Twitter: http://twitter.com/borman18Original Source: twitter.com/SuperDarkMimeIV

Magical Drop V Alpha Version for Xbox 360 (Unreleased) PtoPOnline 2024-08-03 | Have had this one a while, but it is super crashy and takes forever to load, which is why the 15 minutes or so I recorded ended up with what you see. But at least it shows the game did exist for the platform at one point. Follow on Twitter: http://twitter.com/borman18

Unreleased Medal of Honor PSP Pitch PRIOR to the PSPs Release! PtoPOnline 2024-02-13 | This pitch video, recorded sometime in early 2004, is fairly signficant. Climax Handheld was one of the earliest UK developers to begin work for the PlayStation Portable. This work started before the hardware was even done, primarily using the PSP emulator that Sony created to help developers. This is one of a few pitches that they created, not just as a potential Medal of Honor title but rather to show what they could do on the handheld in a short period of time.There is no sound because there wasn't sound in the original recording.In addition to this demo, they also created demos for MotoGP, a demo showcasing a Quake 3 level, a Disney Incredibles demo, and at least one more, which I will keep secret for the time being.They would eventually get the opportunity to test their code on early PSP hardware as well. https://bsky.app/profile/borman.bsky.social

Sudeki Extremely Early Ending: FMA14 Endgame Animatic PtoPOnline 2023-12-25 | An extremely early (not dated) animatic for FMA14, which was the "Endgame," so perhaps not exactly the ending. Music was added to be less awkward, but it was noted as having partial sound, likely all they had recorded for conceptual design. http://twitter.com/borman18@borman.bsky.social

Hot Wheels World Race : Unreleased Top-Down GBA Prototype Footage PtoPOnline 2023-12-16 | When Hot Wheels World Race was in development, the initial plan was for a top down racer, similar to many others and arguably better suited for both the budget and the hardware. Despite the plan seemingly being okayed by higher-ups, the directive came down to change the game to a Mode 7 style racer, and so they did with limited time, and as far as I can tell, no true extra resources. So while the game technically isn't unreleased, and shares the same genes as its final counterpart, it is radically different. No real sound effects in this one, and technically you can change the car in the race but I forgot to. This build is from March 3, 2003, around 2 months prior to the Mode 7 takeover.

Unreal Tournament 2007 (3) Sony PS3 Demo Almost Restored PtoPOnline 2023-07-28 | I finally took a look at the e3 2005 era UE3 reveal demo that was shown at the Sony Conference. I haven't been able to fix the entire thing, but it looks a lot better now. One thing to note, I was going to sync up the audio from the press conference, but this version is clearly different in its timing, so it didn't quite work out, thus no audio at all.
Sudeki Super Early Intro FMV from November 2001! PtoPOnline 2023-05-29 | As the title states, this is from November 2001! The Xbox had barely been released, and the game itself hadn't been announced in its current form. This was a fun project, having to gather all the pieces and use an older version of Sony Vegas to reconstruct the audio track, which should play as intended! Despite how early it is, you can still see the bones of what would be in the final version.Follow on Twitter: http://twitter.com/borman18

Title Defense - The Unreleased DC/PS2/Xbox/GC/PC Boxing Game PtoPOnline 2023-04-13 | This is a tech demo by Climax meant to try to sell the concept to a publisher and is running on PC. This version was clearly meant for SEGA, and is from April 21, 1999, but others such as Acclaim also received the pitch.It is extremely basic, featuring an autodemo if the program is left running, but allows one to two players to jump in. It's a weird control setup, so I don't do all the moves, but there are uppercuts and that sort of thing.The concept of doing a boxing game would be floated around during the following years, including one attempt called HBO Boxing, but ultimately it was never picked up. It doesn't seem like work was ever done to make it run on consoles either.0:00 Autodemo0:27 Wireframe Mode0:33 Gameplay0:43 Changing the Camera0:57 Fixing the Shadows1:24 Overhead View1:33 First Person1:55 Back to the Auto2:05 Back to the Game

This is the earliest known build that I have seen, giving some sort of target for where Climax had planned to go with the game. This build has no sound implemented, and is running on a retail PS2. The game would ultimately be cancelled.00:11 Walking - Warehouse2:20 Driving - Estate3:04 Driving - Hatchback4:06 Driving - Pickup5:04 Driving - SportFollow on Twitter: http://twitter.com/borman18

Offroad Fury EXTREME! ATV Offroad Fury 4 Early Milestone 4 Prototype PtoPOnline 2022-12-04 | This PS2 prototype predates settling on using the "ATV" title, and represents one of the earliest playable milestones for the title. The prototype itself is from around February 14, 2005, which when I do the math is about 20 months (!) prior to its release in North America.There is no sound in the game, so I've added music from the final Fury 4. Let's see if it gets muted. Spoiler: It did. Follow on Twitter: http://twitter.com/borman18Running on PCSX2 as I am nursing a back problem.
