Post Blizzard Entertainment's Cancelled Games

Wired.com is reporting that Blizzard executives revealed a "never-before-seen" list of games that the company has cancelled over the years at today's DICE Summit.
    Of course, there's Warcraft Adventures, the planned point-and-click adventure game based on the strategy series.

    Other games the company killed over the years include:

    Games People Play
    Crixa
    Shattered Nations
    Pax Imperia
    Nomad
    Raiko
    Denizen

    Blizzard CEO Mike Morhaime unveiled this list to illustrate why the company seemingly only develops hit games -- if something isn't shaping up, they're not afraid to cancel it.

    We didn't get more than this list of titles. An image of Raiko was shown, a pencil sketch of something looking like Gollum wearing a turtle shell that was full of arrows. And Nomad was illustrated with a screen of two giant zeppelin airships in a cloudy sky.

    No mention of Starcraft: Ghost, though. Perhaps they'd just like us all to forget that?

Interesting. Denizen sounds RPGish.

Starcraft Ghost isn't cancelled. It's indefinitely delayed

Hence the no-mention

Games People Play would have totally floored me. And I don't even know what that means.

Luckily Diablo 3 isn't on that list. Like Ghost, indefinitely delayed.
