The Cutting Room Floor
The Cutting Room Floorはテレビゲームにおいてゲーム内には登場しなかったコンテンツを各ゲームごとにまとめるためのウェブサイトです。デバッグメニュー、未使用の音楽、グラフィック、敵の情報やレベルに関すること至るまで、多くのゲームには、開発者以外には誰の目にも触れることがなかったデータや、予算/時間などを理由に表舞台に立つことのなかったデータが存在しています。
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.
秀逸な記事
Deus Ex
Developers: Ion Storm, Westlake Interactive (Mac)
Publishers: Eidos Interactive, Aspyr Media (Mac)
Released: 2000 Windows, Mac OS Classic
Deus Ex is the rare combination of several genres, real-life conspiracies, loads of content to explore, and captivating environments.
The game was also highly ambitious, spanning several years before finally being realized in 2000. Not only are there plenty of cut concepts, but also plenty concept art and screenshots from early versions of the game. The game also contains slews of cut conversations, loads of unused textures, and some tidbits from cut levels.
