The Cutting Room Floor/eo
The Cutting Room Floor estas retejo dediĉita al elterigado kaj esplorado de neuzataj kaj tranĉitaj enhavoj el videoludoj. De elpurigaj menuoj, ĝis neuzataj muziko, grafikaĵoj, malamikoj aŭ niveloj, multaj ludoj havas enhavon neniam destinitan esti vidita de iu ajn krom la programistoj — aŭ eĉ celita por ĉiuj, sed tranĉita pro tempaj / buĝetaj limoj.
Feel free to browse our collection of games and start reading. Up for research? Try looking at some stubs and see if you can help us out. Just have some faint memory of some unused menu/level you saw years ago but can't remember how to access it? Feel free to start a page with what you saw and we'll take a look. If you want to help keep this site running and help further research into games, feel free to donate.

Command and Conquer: Generals
Developer: Electronic Arts
Publisher: Electronic Arts
Released: 2003, Windows
Command and Conquer: Generals is a strategy game that meets the typical definition of an obviously unfinished game: it has obvious gaps, many game-breaking bugs, and (most importantly) unused content just littered all over the place.
You were intended to destroy and repair bridges, collect prisoners of war, and build defensive walls...none of which you can do in the final version. Other abilities which are gone include a bayonet for the Red Guard and even a Black Market nuclear bomb.
The expansion pack tops that by including a set of models that indicate the game was originally totally different, and a lot more like the old Command and Conquer games. The generals are far from complete as well, and leftover voices and text shows that originally they were a lot more unique and special...
Didst thou wot...
- ...that The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall has a quest that goes unused due to a simple naming mistake?
- ...that Team Fortress 2 has a real-time music track leftover in its files?
- ...that Palmtree Panic from Sonic CD was once named Salad Plain?
- ...that you could once kill people with dildos in Manhunt 2?
- ...that Sonic Chaos has an unused song that was later used in Sonic Triple Trouble?
- ...that Kirby was supposed to have a Mini ability as early as Kirby's Adventure?
