World's worst vaporware

[CP99]

Bleemcast For Dreamcast WAS released, but in a lesser form than originally promised.

They opted to release single game packs though to emulate individual games instead of of the original game "PACKS" that would emulate many games.

I believe they released bleemcast for

Gran Turismo 2
Metal Gear Solid
Tekken 3

And then yes, it happened. Sony sued them out of existance.
The last incarnation of the bleem website had this image up for a few days.

Maybe i should have been more specific, It was next to impossible to even find the one pack bleem disks, besides using ebay. No retailer had them in stock.

I suppose it depends on where you live. Many of my local retailers carried the discs for some time.

As for PDTP, it is vaporware because bascule is too busy thinking up the "big ideas" to get any real work done, right?

So we got an explanation for the others, but not pdtp? Why is it vaporware?

Mostly because I'm too busy to advance the codebase

Not only does duke nukem forever still have a forum dedicated to it, people still post there:

Actually I'm just working for a startup which is eating up most of my time...

You forgot the ultimate vaporware. The moon cities and rocket cars we were promised in the 50s that were supposed to be around in the 90s..

We finally got flat screen tv.

I want my rocket car.

No rockets, but at least he's trying.

Absolutely. I've been watching Moller's progress with the M400 for over a decade. If he ever gets that thing in production, I'd sell my soul* to buy one.

*Like someone would actually want it.

E-bay it, Thorn ;)
I can just see the salesblurb on this one :

One Irish American soul for sale. Used extensively with a big heart in as diverse fields ranging from Law Enforcement, child raising, and Internet community knowledge sharing, but still got lots of mileage in it.
One time offer only. Will settle for cash, but prefer straight swap for a M400.

And for the record Thorn, even without a soul, you would still be one heck of a nice guy, whom I'm proud of calling a friend.

Don't forget about the outstanding mustache rides!

You can't forget Team Fortress 2, also. I mean, Duke Nukem is vapor too, of course. But I actually expected Team Fortress 2 to come out.

I am still waiting for a delicious butter substitute at half the fat content. Damn you Fabio and your "I cant believe its not butter."

Now I wish I would've voted XANADU, and I'm surprised nobody but astcell did. C'mon, 45 years in the making and still nothing substantive to show for it... if that isn't vaporware I don't know what is.

When you're old like me you remember that kind of stuff.

XANADU.... heh and all this time I thought we were talking about The Movie

What ever happened to The Phantom ?

[skroo]

I can't believe we've gone this far without mentioning the FuFme. I mean, really. Those teases.
