Vaporware 2006

Wired this morning released its annual vaporware list. It features several new entries from the likes of SED TVs, Will Wright, Skype and more.

But, of course, what would a vaporware list be without the most vaporized product of all? That’s right, Duke Nukem Forever, the reigning king of vapor, returns for a record five total years in first place.

Wired managed this comment from Scott Miller, CEO of 3D Realms, “Thanks to the overwhelming success of Prey (our latest IP, and another game that took 10 years to release), we have been afforded another five relaxing years on the making of DNF.” Perhaps we’ll see it sometime before my social security kicks in.

Anyway, go check out the full list of products you might never see.

  • Excellent list. Personally I think Spore and “The iPod Killer” should have been higher on the list, but hey it’s hard to go against DNF. I think I was waiting on that for Commodore64.

    Okay, maybe not, but it’s been a while.

  • Great list……….. I think the Tivo HD should still be on the list as it’s ridiculously expensive and lacks so many of the features of it’s predecessor, the Series 2 tivo.
