The Cutting Room Floor
The Cutting Room Floor est un site dédié à déterrer et à rechercher des contenus coupés et inutilisés de jeux vidéos. Des menus de debug, jusqu'aux musiques inutilisés, graphismes, ennemis, ou des niveaux, beaucoup de jeux ont du contenu qui n'ont jamais été conçu pour être vu par qui que ce soit sauf les développeurs — voire même conçu pour tout le monde, mais coupés par manque de temps/moyens.
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.

Planescape: Torment
Developer: Black Isle Studios
Publisher: Interplay
Released: 1999, Windows
Planescape: Torment follows The Nameless One, a man who can never truly die, and his quest to discover why he is trapped in this endless cycle and, later on, what can change the nature of a man. Considered one of the best written RPGs out there, it is a cult classic with a devout following.
Quite a few graphics were scrapped for the final game, including a set of graphics for the enigmatic Lady of Pain. There is also a huge amount of unused voiced lines, particularly for Morte and Annah. Like any good RPG, there are also a few removed quests.
While The Nameless One might not be able to know what can change the nature of a man, you can know what can change the nature of a game's content by reading this article.
