The Cutting Room Floor
The Cutting Room Floor è un sito dedicato alla ricerca e al ritrovamento del materiale inutilizzato o tagliato dai videogiochi. Che siano essi menù di debug, musiche inutilizzate, della grafica, nemici, o livelli, molti giochi contengono del materiale che non avrebbe mai dovuto essere visionato da nessuno tranne che dagli sviluppatori stessi — o che magari era destinato a tutti, ma che fu poi tagliato per ragioni di budget o per mancanza di tempo.
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.
