The game that was canceled back in 2006 and likely never supposed to see the light of day has found its way online. We hop into the build to share some interesting gameplay moments and look back on what could have been.

GameStop still has my $5 reservation for this game from almost 20 years ago.
They just pocketed that free money
They used it to buy stocks. You might become a millionaire if you go after them now.
Inflation counts so you could be the owner of GameStop if you sued them.
Why torture us with this cancelled game? It still hurts.
Recht_voor_zijn_raap Why am I still watching this? Just to suffer?
Someone should find a way to mod this game or make it in unreal engine 5
Hurts more than a breakup 😅
This game absolutely needs to be released
Way too outdated now.
Yeah but it would be a nice conclusion to what could have been
Remember when blizzard would cancel a game for not meeting their high standards?
That was before Activision. Remember Activision? The one that's pulling the strings?
Release is tomorrow. Preorder now, for 89.99!
@@KouD3Graw Activision-Blizzard is one company with Activision and Blizzard being its subsidiaries.
I was so hyped for this game. When I use to get my monthly subscription of videogame magazines, I would always look forward to learning/reading more about this game.
This game needs to be brought back to life.
Already= Nova: Covert Ops
Needs to come to VR
Microsoft can make it possible.
@@metal_fusion TPS*
Maybe as a Starfield mod
I was a Starcraft fiend. I was so excited when hearing about this game. And then.... it was cancelled..
Sum Dum Phuc 😂😂😂😂😂
@Sum Dum Phuc so funny bro hahahhahah, not
Me too bro, me too
For 2002-4 this is soooo ahead of it's time!
Hmmm not really... maybe in some aspects but it isn't anything mind-blowing.
@@kentreed2011 If it was 2002-2004 then it would have been ahead of its time for game in 3rd person since Chaos Theory was released in 2005.
No one's going to talk about the guy referring to Nova as a "him"?
I was pissed they canned it when they did... I had the book and was so excited for the game. I would love for blizzard to make the game again.
Whats the name of the book?
@@readmore372 Starcraft Ghost: Nova
I would love to see this game, or a spiritual successor, put back into development.
Imagine the same game but founded with modern day mechanics and graphics. Kaboom
*sees starcraft ghost video.."dont give me hope...."
Wow, Thank You for this video! I've actually never seen gameplay only stills of gameplay. I remember this being announced and being so freaking hyped for it. I literally would pull up the SC: Ghost website everyday just to see if there was new anything added. Broke me when updates stopped then the publisher and/or development changed to a different company. That's when it just flat lined. I still have wallpapers they had on the site for fans to use. I Would have loved to have seen this come out, less buggy of course. Hell, I'd love if they surprised use with it in a few years. Come on Blizzard, update the engine and get this back out. I'd STILL love to play this, stealth Starcraft third-person shooter, I was and am still all in.
YESSSSS NOW SOMEONE CAN MAKE IT IN DREAMS!!!!!!
tbh I think that...with great improve..this could work even today.
Saw this vid pop up and I thought it was cool ActiBlizz was revisiting it. Pity it's old gameplay. Cool ideas though, worth a revisit once ActiBlizz runs out of ideas...so ummm...now... basically.
88Opportunist You don’t have a phone?
@Vaughn yeah but not wow subs. That alone contributes about 60% of tmActiv blizz total income last year
Modern Activision-Blizzard woudn't make a game worth playing out of this either.
Imagine if this game is released with todays graphics for new consoles and pc this would really sell like crazy
Would love to see this game with the graphics level of callisto protocol
Oh yeah
This looks like something Blizzard would release in 2020. I'm just waiting for the preorder announcement now.
lol
I remember this! Seeing lots of trailers for it around half life 2 time.. looked amazing for Xbox!
Now that Microsoft purchase Activision Blizzard, there could be a chance that this game could return.
Maybe, but the setting, and gameplay is a little too close to the Perfect Dark reboot, which is said to be 3rd person as well.
This looks so much fun, kinda reminds me of the Rogue Trooper game, which is a great game.
Here's hoping Microsoft revives this one
I want this game forever!! For me this game is Splinter Cell in Space
I would've enjoyed this. Looks pretty cool
I've never played a StarCraft (or Warcraft for that matter) but this looks fun and would've liked to play this
Dude this game was probably way ahead of it's time. Probably required a lot hard working talent. If they had came out with this game it would have rivaled with Halo as top FPS.
Would be nice if Blizzard can develop single player narrative driven games for a change. All set in popular franchises like Warcraft, Overwatch, StarCraft, and Diablo. I made this suggestion because Blizzard has a lot of employees that they can dedicate to making new and different kinds of games. Making single player narrative-focused games can expand and deepen the lore in a unique and different perspective instead of relying on comics, animated shorts, and novels.
cool to see that a lot of these models are very similar to sc2 even though this was made way before that
They canceled the game and never released it ever for out of no reason.
there's a ton of reasons, development hell, poor leadership, and the developer having a different ideia than blizzard's, just to start, i recommend the matt mcmuscles video on this game.
Im almost certain i saw a poster of this game advertised at gamestop before it was cancelled.
Approximately 10 hours staring at Nova's butt in that suit? Count me in.
I hope they make a Starcraft 3 soon with updated graphics and new units
This is a must have
This looks so cool
Same studio made my beloved Metal Arms
🤣
I remember reading an article about this a few years back and got super excited and then finding out it got cancelled:(
I take it the earlier vid was removed due to audio issues. This would be an interesting project for a fan to make within the dreams game since we can see the basic gameplay.
Super cool to see this after Matt McMuscles’ “Wha happun?” Video!!
this looks fire
i mean, in the age of shadowman and perfect dark and winback 64, YEAH this game absolutely would have worked
“Don’t do that. Don’t give me hope.”
Honestly this would have been awesome for that time. I'd still play this now. Sad seeing this, reminds me of the Battlefront 3 skeleton.
Hopefully MS revives this game now that they own Acti/Blizz
I remember seeing this at E3 then it just disappeared. Totally forgot about it.
Watched the whole thing
literally bought a gamecube as a child to get this game and it never released...
I played starcraft on n64. It was exactly the game I was looking for. Controles were ok. But I played that game for a long time.
was excited when the demo shows up on a game tv program..only to find out many years later that it has been cancelled
me at 11 pm when i know my family is asleep: 2:11
Quark 👀👀👀😂😂😂😂
Dang would have loved this on gamecube, looks pretty put together for a game put on hold
"Put on hold indefinitely" is just a euphemism for canceled.
Is it possible to have access to it?
They should try again with this game, it looks great.
if development had gone a little quicker, I could have seen myself playing this non stop on gamecube
the gamecube port was cancelled due to poor online support
We wanted this game .
Who was we? Morhaime was selling this to console gamers, but Starcraft wasn't a console game. The whole thing was a complete sellout.
Wow hopefully will still release...
I remember this from Warcraft 3 Frozen Throne install CD ( or was it RoC?) Anyway, I was so hyped from the trailer back then.
Now I understand the Warcraft III Reforged score
It would be cool becouse we finally see how big the units are.
Blizzard: Hey bro we got an fps coming out! (2006: Ghost) Activision: Same! (2007: COD4)
Now, this is something I'd like to see remade in Dreams. Considering it's PS2 graphics, I think it's possible. Anyone else agree?
It's the Widowmaker "Nova" skin!
Yeah this game would of been awesome back in the day
This game would have been amazing in 2002.
I would love to play starcraft 3rd person campaign like gears of wars graphics with massive horde zerg army
The Coallition maybe can make this game now that Microsoft will own Activision Blizzard. Hopefully.
You guys gotta watch Matt mcmuscles “Wha happun” if you wanna know a bit of this games development history by a cat loving bone daddy
If they returned to making this game it should be like splinter cell and metal gear solid in gameplay where you rely on stealth and deception while the levels are open and it’s up to the player on how they tackle each map.
Are we finally getting it?
I wish.
Raynor: Whats your password hon? Kerrigan: Uh, 11111111.
This could have a lot of potential if it was released back in 2006.
Game looks better then Pokemon Scarlet and Violet and it's PS2 era.
This looked promising
Now with proper commentaries! :D
Looks like a cross between and ?
quick question tho: was this build ever supposed to see the light of day?
No, not really... But Blizzard are NOT taking any of the Videos Down. So they are okay with it.
Quick question though: did you fall asleep five seconds into the video, or perhaps leave the room while it was playing?
@@savnetsinn_original i was kidding lol
Still stings. I was really looking forward to this game.
SO many games have this same story
Is there any way someone can make a mod if this? Anyone know any way?
Star Craft, Predator.
That skin is very attractive in UberWatch
it reminds me a lot of starters republic commando
That was a cancellation that definitely hurt.
StarCraft Ghost now under Xbox has to happen. They have the money, tools and talent for it.
Hopefully someone will make it in 'Dreams' 😗
I wish this happend:/ seeing the world of Starcraft from a 3rd person person view would have been awesome
the same "jump" Animation from legacy of kain soul reaver !
They need to remake this for next gen consoles and PC.
Diablo immortal - bombed WC3R - bombed * blizzard sees people talk about SC:G * (blizzcon 2020) "we are proud to announce starcraft ghost"
Looks very decent even today's standards, shame they canned it. Maybe this would've gotten me into Star Craft.
nova looking like a snack tho
Blizzard announces Starcraft Ghost Remastered. With updated visuals but maintains original experience. Preorders available now. 😂
This would have been great. I hope they are still working on it without any microtransactions.
@@RandoLePerson it's n canceled in heart Bert.
@@RandoLePerson I appreciate your lack of knowledge that I know this already. But I don't care. Let me enjoy this video.
Maybe now that Microsoft bought ActiBlizz, this might be resurrected.
Revival own spin remake on Wii U, PS4, XOne?
Don't you guys have phone?
yea im still excited/
They had no idea what they had back then. Not even a fan of the sedies and i still.couldnt wait to purchase this. Least ghost character became canon.
Well, it looks better than C&C Renegade ) Although I enjoyed the Renegade too back in the day. I trusted Blizzard in 2006 :) I'm not sure I can say that these days.
They could still try to go for a Battlefront-style Starcraft game today, although that's not really Blizzard's forte.
We need starcraft ghost 2
Splinter Cell : StartCraft edition
seems like it had some great ideas, just needed more time to polish it
