WHAT WE KNOW: Intel bought the game and the studio, but they cancelled the game in 2010. The major developers left the company after that.
RUMORS: Nintendo bought the rights to the game as a new IP. It's possible that the developers who left Intel are working on it since they started the new Fractiv LLC.
seriously like intel crushed my dreams for this game when i found out, i want this more than skyrim, and i love skyrim, limited edition ftw, project offset ftw...
I´m pretty sure that Bethesda purchased this game, because the third person gameplay is almost identical to the e3 demo that they did. Also, the assassination and archer animations look almost identical, not to mention the fact that Skyrim is full of dragons, which also look really similar to the ones in this video. If they did purchase project offset, I´m just hoping that they´ll use the same engine for the pc version.
Intel logic: Hey guies this game engine looks great! We don't want any competition... I know, lets buy it, and cancel it! We have enough money, rite guies?!
graphics of the game project offset so they decided to cancel the game and use excuses after being let go the project offset team have created a new company called fractiv they have a website called fractiv.com i don't know if they are still developing project offset by them selves after intel canceled it but lets hope so .
so lets give are support fractiv games company and beg them to carry on with the game..
@D2010N A recent rumor says that Nintendo have actually bought the right for this games and you can see a few screens.Maybe the game will be after all eh?
@D2010N Actually they can't intel owns the Project Offset IP and Engine but that doesn't mean they can't make a game like it. Also the remaining devs have also formed another team Adhesive games which are working on the Mech Game Hawken.
if you want the reason this was canceled here it is there where a small group of developers who stared a games company called offset they then started to create an independent game called project offset this was going to be great a rpg with graphics never before seen in gaming
after showcasing how good it was a big company called Intel come and brought offset company and the right to the game after testing it they found out that intels most powerful new processor could not handle the....
Im speaking out my ass: This game was canceled because of the fucking budget it must have taken to produce this shit. plus... its not very creative at all. its goblins, dragons, orgs, yadayada. lord of the rings. cool...? what im saying is it would get boring very fast, and the idea of the game itself is uverused and outdated, time to move past goblins and shit. BUT the graphics were sick.
@malleo1 It was cancelled due to some hardware they needed never being implemented. Think Blu-Ray vs. HD DVD, they chose HD DVD.
How about modern shooters aren't they far more overdone? Haven't we seen enough of them to last a dozen lifetimes? kill terrorists, kill bad guy, kill other terrorist and yet those games still sell like hot cakes.
@GruntBday567 they indeed are! but goblins and ghouls have been goin around a BIT longer then terrorist games (to my knowledge). lord of the rings, type stuff, had its time already. (diablo, baulders gate, morrowwind, neverwinter nights, etc. etc.). I guess in in reality we'd simply have to see this game released and played to really find out if it was worth it or not.
@malleo1 I think it would have been. From the list of games you mentioned they all share a similar theme but the gameplay has very little in common. We're running out of good ideas so there's no harm in reviewing old content and trying to mix things up a bit.
I already disliked Intel because i was more of AMD guy, but when they did this to the game i began to fucking HATE them...
Now if you read up at Fractiv's page you know that Intel were not even man enough to hand over the rights for the sake of the game being altered and probably published ...
that was 2 years after Intel purchased Offset and still....they aren't even progressing or developing on it and now it's already 3 years in their hands
And why would they cancel what would have been a revolution?....Our games are developing too slowly...Its not hard slapping a bigger power core and graphics card into a console and calling it PLAYSTATION 4 OR XBOX 3600!
@MRofnoobs Hello, Project Offset (working title) is an open world fantasy 3rd/1st person based rpg game, details of the story have not been released but the player is able to have a customisable character, with five differant mounts in the world.... the tech demo shows us a variety of creatures and such. The IP and property are gone to Intel and the graphics hardware did not ship.Larabee also failed to reach as a consumer product, Intel cancelled it sadly.Fractiv are trying hard to bring it back
These guys made their own company (Adhesive) and if you haven't seen their new game, you need to hop on over and check it out. "Hawken". But yeah I remember when this was canceled. My jaw just dropped, I thought it was a joke at first. Intel effed up.
My largest hope, is that Fractiv will learn from the success of Frictional Games. Despite being a small team, they should stick to being indie developers and release their games for steam. They're more likely to earn money given their success so far. Put more time into a game engine that is even better than that of offset, make a new game. As far as we know, Intel knows jack shi* about games.
What could have been revolutionary in video game development will become a thing of the past now for Intel. Will they manage to find talent like Fractiv (Intel had gold in their hands and failed to realize it, dumb lucky bastards) and get their hands in video gaming again? I highly doubt it. Fractiv, the same developers, have already created a game that is the most downloaded application for phones. What has Intel done?
So here's what Intel must do if they don't want to lose money, which I imagine they don't care anyways being the big corporate asses that they are. Finish the damn game and release it before Bethesda kicks their asses. Even if they did finish, they originally hired Offset to utilize technology that is beyond them. Let's face it, Fractiv did the majority of the work, Intel hired them to learn more about gaming and only failed. So can they create something that beats Offset? I doubt it.
This game took five years and only needed an extra year. I sense foul play on Intel's part and reasoning. They're not willing to sell it back to Fractiv because they'll lose money. Yet by not doing so, they will still lose money by being a competitor to Skyrim. What dumbasses Intel were, it will only take three years for Skyrim. In five years, Bethesda would have made an engine and game exceeding project offset. In fact, I'm sure they knew it existed and perhaps will finish to beat Offset.
@CharlieCharlington So you have to come over to a project offset video and advertise skyrim on it? Im anticipating skyrim too, but COMEON, join a forum and talk about it there, dont post it all arround youtuibe, I think everyone gets the point.
@Blacckkfire join a forum? sorry i have a life and i havn't posted it around youtube, i just thought that, as this game has been cancelled people might like Skyrim, perhaps
@CharlieCharlington Thats pretty much for everything on the internet.Forums are no different from youtube comments, and no, that is not a logical, reasonable fact
Such a fucking pile of shit that this was cancelled. I'd complain on offsets page but all comments have been disabled, thanks intel you shower of cunts.
@Blacckkfire very true, i don't think any game could get even close to the exact detail Project Offset had....thats why i said Skyrim will look "Almost" similar to Offsets....Skyrims new engine is going to be bad ass
This engine would have changed todays gaming world...I was looking so forward on this game coming out (6 years it was in the making!!!!) waited for 6 years!!!!!!......but don't worry people.....TES: Skyrim will be coming soon...and what I believe Skyrims engine will look almost similar to Project Offset's can't Fucking Wait!!!
Hate intel all you want, but by cancelling they pretty much immortalized project offset. If the game had actually been released, there's a good chance it would be a let downgiven all the hype. It's like the arms of venus de milo, it's incompleteness is what gives it beauty.
@asfaqqq Unless of course you think that an incomplete statue is useless. Some people wanted the game to be complete regardless of whether or not it was flawed, now people can only wish that the game was finished.
I cannot help but noticing the level of graphics in this engine and as i looked at the date this video was uploaded it was around the same time WoW had its greatest hours and thus this game still is on the same level as todays games. If intel would have released this they would have made a fortune....
@johnplayer20s Have you even played this game? So you cannot criticise it in such a stupid way, this game looks and sounds awesome. This game has nothing to do with homosexuality. Stop posting rubbish.
@OwnageIncBFinch "Bethesda post-Morrowind had failed everyone" No that is wrong, they have not. I do not understand how? Oblivion is really good, Oblivion is pure fantasy not like other fantasy games that contain Manga and cartoonish/childish rubbish.
I understand that Skyrim will be released in 11.11.11, but Project Offset is supposed to break the boundary of gaming, it far exceeds the expectations of this trailer. It is supposed be the best of the best. It is just so sad that this is cancelled and it is a very big open world with many mounts that the player can have.
@Warbearer567 Assets never die, its all just part of the tapestry. Ill be excited when I finish Horizon: Phoenix. Till then ill maintain my palladium: rifts dreams.
@GliTCH11 It is great news that Skyrim will be released, I doubt not that Skyrim will be cancelled, But it is a shame that Project Offset is disbanded, what shame indeed.
There a new official trailer of Elder Scrolls V Skyrim showing its gameplay, the developers should realy consider looking at that and making second thoughts of releasing Project Offset. Intel must be convinced.
The whole point here is that it WAS vaporware... current games are about at this level of rendering. I'm sure Bethesda's Skyrim will be this level (and beyond) of tech and blow away any sort of "gameplay" the offset team ever had (or more likely... didn't have). I'm in the boat of thinking that offset was more of a business card/tech demo--- good looks to ultimately get them on board to another company.
Everyone contact intel with emails on their website explaining why they should make this game. Takes like 5 minutes of your time or more depending on how much you write. If they see there is a clear market for this game they may consider rehiring the team as they are trying to renew their contract with intel or even to get the rights to this game
@Warbearer56 That's not my point. Sure you can make actual gameplay with rediculous graphics (I gaurantee Bethesda could do that) but the reality is getting it to run on current levels of technology hardware. If we all had supercomputers that could render pixar level movie graphics in real time then yeah, this wouldn't be a problem, but hardware will always be a little behind what people want to be doing. I don't care if what they showed is "actual gameplay". Bethesda has this genre covered.
@martinaee They made a graphics card design to play Offset, greedy Intel did took away the rights. People are even trying to make games where we are in the virtual world and control the enviroment through human expressions and other interactions, see "NextWorld" for more information. In a few years we will expect more powerful things to be conjured by Humans.

From Project offset: Our previous company, Offset Software, was purchased by Intel in 2008. Our labor of love was Project Offset and the game engine that went with it. As many of our fans already know, Project Offset was cancelled. The graphics hardware it was being designed for did not ship and our game was a casualty of this.
People get so excited by tech demos... Sure you can make a video look pretty, but dealing with real-time game play while simultaneously implementing graphics that look like current 3d cinema animations is a different story....
Wake me up when it's 2020 or later. (Seriously, I doubt the next elder scrolls will even look like that in the actual game play)
@martinaee This is actual gameplay!!!!!!!!!!!!! Those developers are REALLY GOOD, I was suprised with their game Savage: The Battle for Newerth which had pretty good graphics for that time. A game can implement that graphics all you need is time, this is a real game in development which is now cancelled by Intel because of the"failure of Larabee..." the IP is theirs and Offset is try hard to bring it back. Never judge a game by its trailer, you do not know what the outcome will be. Be happy.
Holy Fuck! those graphics are freaking crazy... WTF! WHY the HELL WOULD INTEL CANCEL SUCH A BEAUTIFUL FUCKING GAME! no.. the could't of, they probably just said that to throw us off... expecting to surprise us. Because theres no fucking way you can get gameplay videos without then trying to show off what they have at the moment! theres absolutely no way! so Intell if you ever check youtube, just to let you know your gonna surprise a lot of Fucking people!
the possibility that Intel crushed this product to slow the pace of real time rendering technologies doesn't surprise me.if this is true their greed knows no bonds. they took the project of a lifetime, sucked a little bit of value from it and threw away the dried husk. Actions like this are one of the biggest reason why games are decades away being considered art.
Intel your are a plague on our way of life. You and your ilk have worn out your welcome in the gaming community. -Meat
@MixThatShitUp Do you know how good Project Offset's graphics is? This gameplay is not even showing at its highest setting its at the lowest. Got this from Project Offset devs email a year ago. Thats why they specifically stated that this game is meant to be the game of the century.
@MixThatShitUp by the way, what gives you the right to say it is better than skyrim if not even official gameplay has even been released? Im not trying to defend skyrim, im just annoyed by people who makes assumptions about games that haven't even came out.
It would have been great to see Project Offset and Bethesda Studios compete against each other, unfortunately, Intel brought up the company. The more competition the more pressure to create something better. Its a shame that it had to end in the way it did.
Hopefully this won't be canceled. If devs can pull it off, it might become the most epic single-player experience ever. And there's no need to bother with talking to Microsoft and Sony about possible console releases, since they don't give a damn about PC gaming, and that's just stupid.
@ilovelctr Yeah I don't buy windows live games it is just microshit trying to constrict the market. I stopped playing the xbox 360 because they're a bad commercial entity and I think they should be cast aside like the trash they are.
So heres to getting rid of your 360 and then getting xp because microshit cannot accept that they suck. But they know it poor limp dicks.
I think if Project offset and Bethesda Studio worked together they would have the best games. Bethesda is using the best A.I for their upcoming Oblivion 5 Skyrim and Project Offset obviously has the best graphics put that together you have the ultimate game.

Wow, I've never even heard of this, but I really regret not knowing haha Anyone care to explain to me why Intel would force a company to stop making this? I dont mean to soud douchey, I actually do not know why they wouldnt want this. If anyone here would be kind enough to explain this, I must thank you.
@Kite117 Failure of Larebee reaching a consumer product, the ip and similer are theres now. developers moved to Fractiv and I think they are trying ever harder to bring the game back up.
@Warbearer567 Thanks, and thank god they're trying. I just hope Intel doesnt take property of Offset, because I can probably speak for all of us when I say the president of intel will have 3 million red dots on his face haha
@MixThatShitUp No, it's not. During the production of Fallout 3, the Elder Scrolls team spent 2 whole years working on a brand new engine for Skyrim, built from the ground up. It's not even related to the engine for Project Offset. However, I can guarantee that Skyrim's engine sets the premise for one extremely kick-ass game.
If you want to support the guys (not intel!) that made this, then buy "Lane splitter" for iphone (and Android too I think). They made their own game company called Fractiv, and although they didn't get all the rights to this game for f***** greedy intel, they are still making a new game.

This is what I found: Intel canceled this project because ``"recent changes in our product roadmap" (possibly meaning the failure of Larrabee as a consumer product``. With other word this game could have had such a good engine that the ``new`` Intel CPU would have been, for a lack of a better word, useless. But forget about that for a moment, and lets focus on on thing, the offset engine. I mean come on, this engine looks so good that it could had rrevolutionized today's gaming world.
@DayDreamersMind Good job people... you obviously can use Wikipedia (*face palms*)
It's not about having "the most ultimate engine"--- don't you think Bethesda would be all over that shit? It's about striking a balance in gameplay and technology on the hardware and technology available at the time. I'm planning world domination with laser death rays.... but I'm hindered by a few things at the moment... namely NOT having laser death rays.

Hate intel all you want, but by cancelling they pretty much immortalized project offset. If the game had actually been released, there's a good chance it would be a let downgiven all the hype. It's like the arms of venus de milo, it's incompleteness is what gives it beauty.

I understand that Skyrim will be released in 11.11.11, but Project Offset is supposed to break the boundary of gaming, it far exceeds the expectations of this trailer. It is supposed be the best of the best. It is just so sad that this is cancelled and it is a very big open world with many mounts that the player can have.

theonlylimp 11 months ago
The whole point here is that it WAS vaporware... current games are about at this level of rendering. I'm sure Bethesda's Skyrim will be this level (and beyond) of tech and blow away any sort of "gameplay" the offset team ever had (or more likely... didn't have). I'm in the boat of thinking that offset was more of a business card/tech demo--- good looks to ultimately get them on board to another company.

Everyone contact intel with emails on their website explaining why they should make this game. Takes like 5 minutes of your time or more depending on how much you write. If they see there is a clear market for this game they may consider rehiring the team as they are trying to renew their contract with intel or even to get the rights to this game
Warbearer567 11 months ago
@Warbearer56 That's not my point. Sure you can make actual gameplay with rediculous graphics (I gaurantee Bethesda could do that) but the reality is getting it to run on current levels of technology hardware. If we all had supercomputers that could render pixar level movie graphics in real time then yeah, this wouldn't be a problem, but hardware will always be a little behind what people want to be doing. I don't care if what they showed is "actual gameplay". Bethesda has this genre covered.
martinaee 11 months ago
@martinaee They made a graphics card design to play Offset, greedy Intel did took away the rights. People are even trying to make games where we are in the virtual world and control the enviroment through human expressions and other interactions, see "NextWorld" for more information. In a few years we will expect more powerful things to be conjured by Humans.

From Project offset: Our previous company, Offset Software, was purchased by Intel in 2008. Our labor of love was Project Offset and the game engine that went with it. As many of our fans already know, Project Offset was cancelled. The graphics hardware it was being designed for did not ship and our game was a casualty of this.
Warbearer567 11 months ago
TOTALLY HYPED VAPORWARE.
People get so excited by tech demos... Sure you can make a video look pretty, but dealing with real-time game play while simultaneously implementing graphics that look like current 3d cinema animations is a different story....
Wake me up when it's 2020 or later. (Seriously, I doubt the next elder scrolls will even look like that in the actual game play)
martinaee 11 months ago
@martinaee This is actual gameplay!!!!!!!!!!!!! Those developers are REALLY GOOD, I was suprised with their game Savage: The Battle for Newerth which had pretty good graphics for that time. A game can implement that graphics all you need is time, this is a real game in development which is now cancelled by Intel because of the"failure of Larabee..." the IP is theirs and Offset is try hard to bring it back. Never judge a game by its trailer, you do not know what the outcome will be. Be happy.
Warbearer567 11 months ago
Holy Fuck! those graphics are freaking crazy... WTF! WHY the HELL WOULD INTEL CANCEL SUCH A BEAUTIFUL FUCKING GAME! no.. the could't of, they probably just said that to throw us off... expecting to surprise us. Because theres no fucking way you can get gameplay videos without then trying to show off what they have at the moment! theres absolutely no way! so Intell if you ever check youtube, just to let you know your gonna surprise a lot of Fucking people!

the possibility that Intel crushed this product to slow the pace of real time rendering technologies doesn't surprise me.if this is true their greed knows no bonds. they took the project of a lifetime, sucked a little bit of value from it and threw away the dried husk. Actions like this are one of the biggest reason why games are decades away being considered art.

It would have been great to see Project Offset and Bethesda Studios compete against each other, unfortunately, Intel brought up the company. The more competition the more pressure to create something better. Its a shame that it had to end in the way it did.

Hopefully this won't be canceled. If devs can pull it off, it might become the most epic single-player experience ever. And there's no need to bother with talking to Microsoft and Sony about possible console releases, since they don't give a damn about PC gaming, and that's just stupid.

I think if Project offset and Bethesda Studio worked together they would have the best games. Bethesda is using the best A.I for their upcoming Oblivion 5 Skyrim and Project Offset obviously has the best graphics put that together you have the ultimate game.

@MixThatShitUp No, it's not. During the production of Fallout 3, the Elder Scrolls team spent 2 whole years working on a brand new engine for Skyrim, built from the ground up. It's not even related to the engine for Project Offset. However, I can guarantee that Skyrim's engine sets the premise for one extremely kick-ass game.

If you want to support the guys (not intel!) that made this, then buy "Lane splitter" for iphone (and Android too I think). They made their own game company called Fractiv, and although they didn't get all the rights to this game for f***** greedy intel, they are still making a new game.

This is what I found: Intel canceled this project because ``"recent changes in our product roadmap" (possibly meaning the failure of Larrabee as a consumer product``. With other word this game could have had such a good engine that the ``new`` Intel CPU would have been, for a lack of a better word, useless. But forget about that for a moment, and lets focus on on thing, the offset engine. I mean come on, this engine looks so good that it could had rrevolutionized today's gaming world.

@DayDreamersMind Good job people... you obviously can use Wikipedia (*face palms*)
It's not about having "the most ultimate engine"--- don't you think Bethesda would be all over that shit? It's about striking a balance in gameplay and technology on the hardware and technology available at the time. I'm planning world domination with laser death rays.... but I'm hindered by a few things at the moment... namely NOT having laser death rays.
