Remember when Detroit: Become Human was just a tech demo used to show off the graphical power of the Quantic Dream's then-new PS3 Graphics engine? Those were crazy times.
I watched that demo. There's some footage of some passing traffic and possibly people walking about, which I mistook for real-world footage. (It was that good.)
Considering the gritty look of the protag, I actually think they did. It gives off a massively darker tone compared to everything Final Fantasy so far.
It doesn't match the theme of the video though. All of these are things that were never intended to become a game. There are no cancelled games shown in the video. Also, strictly speaking, P.T. is a completedly product; it's Silent Hills that got cancelled.
Nichijou Bot I don’t think the “PT wannabes” are necessarily a bad thing. Did they pan out like people wanted? Maybe not, but you can’t blame them for trying, and the fact that it inspired so many copycats just means it really was that good.
I mean...technically, they are. E3 trailers are the gaming equivalent of taking a half-baked cake, finding the parts that look best, and telling half of your bakers to make those parts look like a finished cake.
Well, the Anthem E3 demo was literally a separate thing created in a different version of the engine. It was pretty much like someone doing a cool doodle on a napkin and saying "this, but lots and bigger"... except they use lipstick on the napkin and are telling you they'll use the finest oil paints in the world when you know they have a huge pile of broken pencils ready for re-sharpening.
@@greenhowie LOL. I knew someone could not resist mentioning Anthem. I agree, though, that if they had used that same engine for the game it might not be taking them so long to get it working the way it should have from the beginning.
Yea most disappointed about Agni's Philosophy and The Heretic not being actual games. I would've easily payed $60 for each. As well as a single player/co-op Star Wars.
@@delugesofgrandeur yeah .... unless they bombed to which their price will go down to 50 USD then 40 USD at which point most publishers stop caring about the game
So did Borderlands 3. I remember their tech demo and they were like this is NOT Borderlands 3. Then BL3 comes out and Moze is almost exactly the same as she was in the demo.
Panini projection was actually the sadly discontinued idea from Sony to recapture the success of the PS2 by combining the PS4 with a home appliance we can't live without - a panini press
Fun fact: Square Enix spent an entire year on Agni's Philosophy, they had a whole concept behind it. In contrast, FFXIII spent 2 years in full development and FFXV 3 years in full development.
FFXIII battle system can be really entertaining if SE ever polishes it more. Combining roles for different effects and real-time ATB battle is make it very fun to play
You know what would be really interesting? Tech demos that actually became games. For instance, Kara, from Detroit Become Human, started out as a simple graphics demo.
I remember seeing that woman from Agni’s Philosophy in another tech demo where she was crying, they would zoom in on her face and change the source of light. Wish we can reach that level of graphics detail ffs
If we're including 3D Mark into this, I'm still disappointed that Time Spy will never become an actual game. Not only is it beautiful, but it looks like an incredible Quantum Break styled mind breaking game that would have been an absolute blast to play.
What about games with humble beginnings? Like how Portal started out as Narbacular Drop and Octodad: Dadliest Catch is the sequel to the first Octodad game. Both of which were student projects. I'm sure there are plenty other student games that transformed into well-known titles.
_The Stanley Parable_ started out as a simple mod a few years before it was made into a standalone game. (Areas from the mod can even be seen in one of the full game's endings, but changed to look old and decayed.) _Tag: The Power of Paint_ inspired the gel mechanics in Portal 2. EDIT: Okay, I'm not sure why "The Stanley Parable" got bolded, since I only put in underscores, to make it italicised.
The Star Wars demo is totally done with Rey Tracing. We won't be able to see the full game until she fulfills her storyline in Episode 9. Also, the tracing is obviously done with lightsabers. ; )
Kinda hope they use the agni philosophy for the next final fantasy game looks like a sick concept. Love how she turns a cola into a potion its clearly final fantasy based. In the newer square tech demo the main girl looks like a turk out of ff7 to me
They do as using OpenGL API and/or DirectX API for graphics and audio and/or Vulcan API is going to be hard for 3D movies. Then you have anime movies that they mostly just draw by hand anyways not use computers until pairing the sound to the images. I think most of them use a closed source rendering engine we will never get as it is built to use CPU server farms to have 100 thousand or more more CPU cores. No consumer will have 1 million CPU cores in a single machine nor will have ever have a reason for it.
Nah, FF16 has a LOT to live up to, especially given the lack of content for 15. Besides, do you really think a game about pretty white priestesses being attacked by people with assault rifles and ...ahem... "scarves" on their heads would be an easy sell outside Asia? Japan might think it's still the 1980's, but the Western market is a little more culturally sensitive. Still shit, mind you.
@@greenhowie Are yo sure about that?? I mean, this look for an enemy has been very popular, mostly in shooters, and not faced any controversy. Also, these would probably be the good guys or they could make up a story where they are to compensate.

So yeah it would be a good concept having a magical world on a dessert planet or similar. Japan focuses on what sells and not what babies unfortunatly in journalism think. Thankfully. I mean they would write sh*t about the game but they already do because Japan serves their costumer base. They would trying to kill it anyways. Because it doesn't push their narrative.

Battlefront 2's gameplay was actually pretty good, it was just the lootboxes and pay-to-win stuff that turned everyone off. A few different decisions from management and would probably have been received very well.

And idk what the hell wiht those sequels XD suddenly we are time traveling and shit XD playing monster rancher in a ff game
I'd still play Agni's philosophy. An rpg where you play as the summoner? Just take some tips from persona 5 and devil may cry 5's V and you'd have a kickass concept for an fast action paced summoner game. (Maybe also hire platinum for fun and function)
sokumo tanaka, Nothing much, just that with that general discription, as well as what I remember from Persona & Devil May Cry although I never played them and barely remember them, it reminded me of the Full Metal Alchemist games on the PS2. Not the the protagonist could fly around or move quick, but it was an action based summoner with fantasy-like magic involved, at least to me. I've never played the two but if I remember them correctly then I'm not too far off; it was a generalization of the games as well as was the action based summoner a decent description. Also, I almost thought your name was "Takanaka" at my first-second glance. XD
I’m still so upset that Agni’s Philosophy didn’t end up being real... hopefully Square Enix will pull a Tarte Cosmetics and reveal that it ACTUALLY is a release and give us that amazing looking game.
What if the Star Wars demo was actually a Hack And Slash by Platinum Games? They are trying to be silly, so Platinums writing could be in the game. I just want to play a Star Wars game made by Platinum Games.
I'd love it if somone, when making a Tech Video, made it look like a Travels In Europe thing. For example, the host directly telling the viewer that the lighting is awesome, while guiding them through a glowing crystal forest.
Detroit: Become Human started it's life as a tech demo and eventually became a game via popular demand by viewers and gamers alike. Perhaps other tech demos will become games by popular demand as well. Who knows?
It's just like holding a multitude of ice creams in front of you,letting you smell them and immagine how wonderful they must taste and then letting them melt into the sewer with no way of getting inside it,thus not allowing you to taste even the drops of it. Why,companies,why...

I remember being impressed by the Euclideon Unlimited Detail tech demo that one time. Didn't go anywhere, for a few very good reasons, but it looked good. Really good.
@@brentage5000 As someone who watched a ridiculous amount of the original..... I thought the movie was a reasonably faithful adaptation. The original was basically steampunk light. it had all sorts of ludicrous tech that made no sense at all. Like how do you wear boots that have a knife hidden in the to like that? How to you keep EXPLOSIVES hidden in the heel of your boot??? Then there's the train with so many hidden compartments it's probably a Transformer.
One tech demo that we’ll never get to see was the Oculus demo based on a scene from The Hobbit. At the time, it was said it could only be run on two Nvidia Titan GPUs. The only way you could see it was if you were at a convention where it was being shown off; it was never released publically.
The samaritan looks cool if only because shape-shifting + fighting cops = fun. i'd also like an arkham-brawler indiana jones game and technomancer world-exploration like the heretic, but shapeshifting you guyyys
Thanks for reminding me how terrifying that T. Rex was when I tried that demo myself. I suddenly knew how the folks in Jurassic Park felt. Dinos are far more terrifying in person than on-screen. Also I want most of these so badly... :(
2019 : Lootboxes get phased out 2020 : Buy this sweet jacket. Here's some software so you can see it in 3d, our bosses made us add the big yellow birds and storyline.
If you want to run that Unity Tech Demo, they usually provide a download, sometimes even the whole thing as a project so you can compile the thing yourself..
I did the 3D render test for a game recently, and it was a guy walking around a ruined museum or some sort, but the kicker was he had this looking glass that showed you a different time in the same place. And stuff started going crazy, like trees were growing through the thing, there was a dinosaur at one point I think. Looked like an insane portal-style game with time-hopping mechanics that I would LOVE to play. *sigh*
I believe the Heretic wasn't supposed to be an Video Game at all but a short online series using the Amazing abilities and complicity of the Unity Engine. At least i think from what i gathered. The Samaritan would have being cool as an FPS cyperpunk game.
I remember seeing an article way back in a magazine for True Fantasy Live Online on the original Xbox. It sounded so cool and ambitious, for the time which was early 2000's, that I was crushed when it was cancelled.
Remember when Detroit: Become Human was just a tech demo used to show off the graphical power of the Quantic Dream's then-new PS3 Graphics engine?

They've dropped their own company down the toilet trying to save face and get back into the black after FFXIV failed so terribly they basically destroyed the integrity of FFXIII AND FFXV in order to allocate resources to fixing it.
@@EnglishRosie sounds like they need advisors to have proper managment and logistics
@@EnglishRosie is that what messed those up? I mean it used to be anything with FF on it was guarenteed money but idk lately. I mean i liked 15 ok but it seemed like half an idea. And 13 had a nice story kind of. And beautiful graphics but it once again sort of like half way completed and they tghought close enough. And idk what the hell wiht those sequels XD suddenly we are time traveling and shit XD playing monster rancher in a ff game
Dude agni's philosophy looks like it woulda been so amazing to play!
I'd still play Agni's philosophy.
An rpg where you play as the summoner?
Just take some tips from persona 5 and devil may cry 5's V and you'd have a kickass concept for an fast action paced summoner game.
(Maybe also hire platinum for fun and function)
sokumo tanaka, "...you'd have a kickass concept for an action paced sommoner game." Somewhat reminds me of FMA the video game.
@@saints360row Hm? what do you mean?
sokumo tanaka, Nothing much, just that with that general discription, as well as what I remember from Persona & Devil May Cry although I never played them and barely remember them, it reminded me of the Full Metal Alchemist games on the PS2. Not the the protagonist could fly around or move quick, but it was an action based summoner with fantasy-like magic involved, at least to me.
I've never played the two but if I remember them correctly then I'm not too far off; it was a generalization of the games as well as was the action based summoner a decent description.
Also, I almost thought your name was "Takanaka" at my first-second glance. XD
I’m still so upset that Agni’s Philosophy didn’t end up being real... hopefully Square Enix will pull a Tarte Cosmetics and reveal that it ACTUALLY is a release and give us that amazing looking game.
What if the Star Wars demo was actually a Hack And Slash by Platinum Games?
They are trying to be silly, so Platinums writing could be in the game.
I just want to play a Star Wars game made by Platinum Games.
There was supposed to be a VR Spirited Away game and it would've been gorgeous but, I don't know that it was ever finished.
3:38 I care! VR is great! Have you seen BONEWORKS?
@9:55 That image looks so pre-rendered in the best way possible, so nostalgic
Unreal 4 tech demo looked so amazing though. A game like that and I'll never see the sun again.
You'll see the sun in game.
Oh you mean the real sun outside.
I'd love it if somone, when making a Tech Video, made it look like a Travels In Europe thing. For example, the host directly telling the viewer that the lighting is awesome, while guiding them through a glowing crystal forest.
You could say the tech demo for OutsideXbox was misleading. Where is my 24/7 live footage from behind Mike's eye? And did we ever find his dog?
Caitlin RC you are a og į see
I once knew a guy called Ray Tracy. I wonder if he worked on that Star Wars tech demo?
In The Heretic's case is a copy of all of these demos as full games.
Detroit: Become Human started it's life as a tech demo and eventually became a game via popular demand by viewers and gamers alike. Perhaps other tech demos will become games by popular demand as well. Who knows?
It's just like holding a multitude of ice creams in front of you,letting you smell them and immagine how wonderful they must taste and then letting them melt into the sewer with no way of getting inside it,thus not allowing you to taste even the drops of it. Why,companies,why...
5:52 no wonder the guy holding the crystal reminds me of the royal family of Lucis.
MIKE!!!! How DARE you!!! VR games are awesome. And there are loads of us who care about them.
Or you know... six of us.
There are dozens of us! Dozens!
I love re-visiting old videos and laughing at things in retrospect. LucasArts Games is now developing an Indiana Jones videogame!😆
7:29 See Mt.Dew can heal just about anything!
Cool jackets and extremely catchy music to be exact, are what drive video game hype. Hence why I'm suddenly swept up in Devil May Cry 5 hysteria.
Imagen a Star wars comedy shooter were you play as stormtroopers. It would play a bit like Army of Two and would be amazing :)
Except for the wild inaccuracy of your blasters, I'm with you.
@@GhengisJohn Actually, if I remember correctly, in EA's Battlefront 2 Campaign an Imperial Officer said that Stormtrooper lands only the 77% of the shots they fire. So, yeah, most of the shots will be miss.
@@CassBlackflame How does 77% accuracy mean that most shots miss? With that accuracy, more shots hit than miss.
@@rok371 Well, I'm not good at phrasing. What I meant to write (and say) that in the movies we always see that 33% who always miss.
77+33=?
4:30 I can just imagine Markiplier slowly bringing up two middle fingers.
*presses F* to show respect for Grandmaster Flash
I was hurt when I realized Agni's Philosophy wasn't a real game. I would've spent money on it.
Crowbot? How about Crow T. Robot... MST3K anyone?
I remember being impressed by the Euclideon Unlimited Detail tech demo that one time. Didn't go anywhere, for a few very good reasons, but it looked good. Really good.
What about tech demos that became games? Like the PS3 Kara tech demo that became Detroit: Become Human.
9:32 That should have been a Batman game. You can clearly see the Bat-signal in the portal.
Jane saw the shipelin (=ship+ Zeppelin) and thought bioshock. I saw it and thought of Shakespeare and Stardust
that, and also Archeage. maybe FF XIV
I thought Final Fantasy 9
I remember doing the occulus rift demo at a mall. It was my first experience with VR and it was amazing.
"Grandmaster...Flash, we'll say."
Flash! AAAAhhhhhhhhhh! King Of The Impossible!
I'm told he saved every one of us.
I watched Agni's philosophy a while back definitely thinking it was a promo for a game.
HOW DARE YOU INSULT WILD WILD WEST, MIKE! The bad plot just adds to it's foolish charm. Sure. Let's go with that.
It's no Jonah Hex, that's for sure
Plus, we wouldn't have one of the greatest songs of all time without it. The pain was worth it.
@@brentage5000 Wickity Wah Wah Wickity Wild Wild West Jim West desperada Rough rider no you don't want nada
@@brentage5000 As someone who watched a ridiculous amount of the original..... I thought the movie was a reasonably faithful adaptation. The original was basically steampunk light. it had all sorts of ludicrous tech that made no sense at all. Like how do you wear boots that have a knife hidden in the to like that? How to you keep EXPLOSIVES hidden in the heel of your boot??? Then there's the train with so many hidden compartments it's probably a Transformer.
@@marhawkman303 Oh, that would be an awesome reveal....Wild Wild West as a Transformers prequel
One tech demo that we’ll never get to see was the Oculus demo based on a scene from The Hobbit. At the time, it was said it could only be run on two Nvidia Titan GPUs. The only way you could see it was if you were at a convention where it was being shown off; it was never released publically.
*Doesn’t seem fantastic*
T-Rex: Hold my beer
Andy clearly bases how excited he gets about games solely on how cool his jacket options are going to be.
Did Andy just call that tram a cable car after his rant in the RE2 videos?
*Trolley
totally thought the legend of zelda spider fight demo would have been on this list, I was super looking forward to a Zelda game that looked like that
I don't know why, but this video has given me a sudden, irresistible urge for a Coke...
Read this as the joke was delivered :s
The samaritan looks cool if only because shape-shifting + fighting cops = fun. i'd also like an arkham-brawler indiana jones game and technomancer world-exploration like the heretic, but shapeshifting you guyyys
So we have physics for Jane and history for Andy, what are the other OX crew members' interests that everyone else seems to know nothing about?
Cars for mike
Ships for Luke
Kingdoms of amalur:reckoning for ellen
@@polkarrty hier automata as well I think for ellen
Thanks for reminding me how terrifying that T. Rex was when I tried that demo myself. I suddenly knew how the folks in Jurassic Park felt. Dinos are far more terrifying in person than on-screen.
Also I want most of these so badly... :(
For me it was the Valve 'Aperture Robot Repair' Portal-themed demo. I didn't realise just how _huge_ GlaDOS is.
MAN THE HERETIC HAS A NICE JACKET!!!
EDIT: THE SAMARITAN HAS AN EVEN NICER JACKET!!!
2019 : Lootboxes get phased out
2020 : Buy this sweet jacket. Here's some software so you can see it in 3d, our bosses made us add the big yellow birds and storyline.
I like this one. Makes me appreciate the nerdy side of videogames.
And we forgot what faces looked like when Mass Effect Andromeda came out...
and Assassin's Creed Unity...
If you want to run that Unity Tech Demo, they usually provide a download, sometimes even the whole thing as a project so you can compile the thing yourself..
looking fresh mike. *click* noice
edit: disagree about indy. lara is the worlds worst archaeologist. she belongs in a museum.
6:58 "RIP Grand Master... Flash, let's say."
- - -
Mike & Andy: "Duh-buh duh-buh duh-buh-duh duh-buh-duh..."
Grand Master (dying painfully): "Ugh..."
Mike: "He could've said 'Bass'..."
Andy: "Or 'Freeze'..."
8:23 Well I hope they has his book series ASoIaF in mind and not the terrible tv show.
Andy's reference to Chasing Amy was very much appreciated!
"Bet Isaac Newton regrets creating physics now!"
*Jane exit, slamming doors*
"-That's just Jane leaving."
JANE WAS NEWTON ALL ALONG!?
You never see them in the same room.
I did the 3D render test for a game recently, and it was a guy walking around a ruined museum or some sort, but the kicker was he had this looking glass that showed you a different time in the same place. And stuff started going crazy, like trees were growing through the thing, there was a dinosaur at one point I think. Looked like an insane portal-style game with time-hopping mechanics that I would LOVE to play. *sigh*
What?! No PS1 T-Rex Tech Demo? 1/10
Dream Deck was my first experience with VR! The alien freaked me out haha. And the T-rex bit had me like full body cowering xD it was wild
Omg she said Pittsburgh. PITTSBURGH NATIVES REPRESENT
I believe the Heretic wasn't supposed to be an Video Game at all but a short online series using the Amazing abilities and complicity of the Unity Engine. At least i think from what i gathered.
The Samaritan would have being cool as an FPS cyperpunk game.
MK 11 is powered by unreal Engine 4 not 3
Nope. On a Kombat Kast, they actually said they are using a heavily modified version of Unreal 3.
Half expected Watch Dogs to be on here, cuz we definitely didn't get the game THAT demo showed us.
I would argue that Lara Croft is the world's worst archaeologist...
She killed an actual dinosaur!
So did Dr Grant.. probably, at some point
Archeaologists don't dig up dino's....
@@suziekeuls7582 You're right, paleontologists do. But, archaeologists probably shouldn't swiss cheese the first ever discovered surviving dinosaur.
I remember seeing an article way back in a magazine for True Fantasy Live Online on the original Xbox. It sounded so cool and ambitious, for the time which was early 2000's, that I was crushed when it was cancelled.
