How accurate is this list and the links within it?
I am not sure, but it seems pretty comprehensive. This can be a nice starting point for any research one of us might want to do on some lost game.

That list is awesome, and grows each time I see it, but it's nowhere near comprehensive. I mean, look at that tiny Amiga list, compared to this:

http://eager.back2roots.org/UNREL.HTML

Also, I'm 90% positive the ImagiNation Network happened, yet it's on the list.

On the plus side, I didn't know about The Last Express for PlayStation, and the thought of it makes my privates tingle.

Yea, the ImagiNation thing did happen... It was Sierra's game portal that had some sweet stuff on it before it died to the power of the internet. RIP ImagiNation.

Pretty cool, I am aware of Every Amiga Game Ever Released, but not of the unreleased section of their website. I think thw GTW64 dudes and the Hall of Light guys I know (hol.abime.net) researched that list.
Last Express for PSX ? Thought it was Windows game only.

Sadly, BTTR is probably a dead site, but HOL more than makes up for it. Those guys have done an amazing job.

On the Atari St section of the list..Oh dear...that is pitiful.
I knew of a french site that had amazing section on unreleased or missing Atari St games. It's not "Missing Atari ST Games", which happens to be dead ATM.
It was a superb, sleek site that was one of the best I had seen dealing with Atari ST stuff.
Here is one article scan of a game, "The Few" .
I'm a World War 2 buff, would love to find this one day.
