In fairness, if this was sacrificed in order to keep BG&E2 in development, I'm all for it. All the same, it's a slick clip and it has a pretty interesting premise.
something would have gone awry with that.
yeah something always goes awry with ideas that sound like pure win, just look at this game ;-)

I guess this is a casualty of Ubisoft's decision to focus on sequels to franchises they know will make a lot of money instead of, ya know, doing something different and cool.

sadly this has been happening for a while, what"s the incentive for creating something fresh and original, when a tried and true formula makes millions, the companies don't want to take that risk =(

That would be the best "video game design college" commercial pitch ever. Unfortunately that's all we'll ever get...
The game, which was to be a third-person shooter, was to be set in London in the year 2032. Somehow, society and machines were co-existing but, clearly, something would have gone awry with that
How did we get to 15 comments without someone commenting on the name Vergne Fanny.. really? I'm dissappointed.
This is what every Ghost In The Shell game wishes it could be. Very cool. Phooey at Ubisoft for not picking it up.
"I'm not so sure how it would really differ from jumping on the back of any animal in a game"
Animals can't shoot rockets. Animals don't have miniguns. That would be that much more awesome!

@BxB402: yeah. But why doesn't a decent studio pick up Ghost in the Shell. With some though it could end up a decent game. After seeing Platinum games' Vanquish I believe they would do an awesome jobs.
To me it's ripe with potential for a game with the acrobatics, hacking, upgradeable bodies, thermo optic camo etc.
It seems when they release a GitS game, it's kind of half assed.
Any back OT. I really these guys find a way to make their game happen.

Her name is "Fanny Vergne", not "Vergne Fanny", like yours is "Conrad Zimmerman", and not "Zimmerman Conrad". ;)
Fanny could be consider as the french equivalent of "Fran".

@ELOdry: I would be terribly embarrassed about that but I just can't. We use "Fanny" in the US as well, albeit quite rarely. We also use "Vern", and there was no indication on their site that it was anything but "Vergne Fanny."
You are, however, correct.

Strange that. It does look cool, but another sign of developers playing the safe card. I bet there's a lot of developers out there with similar cool but canceled projects just like this.
Now there's a cool idea. Perhaps Dtoid should have a regular feature on potentially cool but canceled projects. Have a chat to developers about why it got canned, and maybe all Dotiders can have a vote on whether they'd buy it or not. Don't forget once upon a time, RDR was such a game, and that was lucky to be rescued from Capcom by Rockstar. If only that would happen more often.
