A few weeks ago, Games' Past, an organization "dedicated to discovering, restoring, and releasing canceled video games & video game prototypes," did just that, releasing files for a Fallout: New Vegas beta discovered on an Xbox 360 dev kit. Since then, modders have been working furiously to restore all of the cut content and finish a few things that the developers never did
Two dev kits from Obsidian were discovered, containing hundreds of files pertaining to Fallout: New Vegas and its DLC. However, most interesting was a beta of the game dated just one month before the game's build was finalized. New Vegas had an infamously short development cycle, leading to numerous features being cut shortly before launch. NPCs, quests, and even romance options were left on the chopping block to make its October release date.
