OXCGN writer David Hilton tales a look at just 12 games thathave gone Missing In Action over the last year or two and wonders if we'll see mention of them at E3 '09 in June this year.

We should know first hand, as it looks like OXCGN will be heading to E3 this year. More news on that later.

We get some game announcement that attracts our attention, or perhaps some images or video footage, and then the game simply… disappears? The most famous example in gaming, of course, is Duke Nukem, but there have been a number of titles this generation that have ‘gone walkabout’ as we say here in Oz and I’m hoping that some of them reappear at this year’s E3, now less than a month away.

Is vaporware increasing due to economic pressures? Interestingly not one of the following games is a sequel. So, here are 12 of the games gone Missing In Action (MIA) but feel free to add to the list in the comments section below the article.

To End All Wars
