Gunslinger

Gunslinger is a cancelled PlayStation 2 and PC by Surreal Software. It was to be a third-person action adventure game.

Plot
The plot was going to be a lone gunslinger, who has been wronged by the evil land baron. You must make money, either through good or evil ways, to get your revenge.

Gameplay
The game was a sandbox old west game, a Red Dead Redemption a decade earlier. Wander around the wild west, doing either good deeds or bad deeds. The game had a morality meter and the citizens of the world would react and treat you different in relation to your karma.

To earn money you can either do good deeds. Good deeds would include helping the locals, freeing prisoners from jail, and cashing in bounties on wanted criminals. Bad deeds would consist of robbing stagecoaches and high stake illegal gambling.

Cancellation
No official reason was given for the game's cancellation. Richard Rouse III, game designer at Surreal Software, said that Gunslinger was too ambitious for the PS2. Implementing the morality system was impossible to do effectively, so rather than rework the whole game they canned it.
