The Cutting Room Floor
The Cutting Room Floor is a site dedicated to unearthing and researching unused and cut content from video games. From debug menus, to unused music, graphics, enemies, or levels, many games have content never meant to be seen by anybody but the developers — or even meant for everybody, but cut due to time/budget constraints.
Feel free to browse ourcollection of games and start reading. Up for research? Try looking atsome stubs and see if you can help us out. Just have some faint memory of some unused menu/level you saw years ago but can't remember how to access it? Feel free to start a page with what you saw and we'll take a look. If you want to help keep this site running and help further research into games,feel free to donate.

Grand Theft Auto: Vice City was the anticipated follow-up toGrand Theft Auto III, improving on what was established in the previous game such as a bigger map, flyable aircraft and purchasable properties. It was abig hit, unexpectedly becoming one of the best-selling games for the PlayStation 2.
The game itself appears to have undergone an absurd amount of last-minute decisions throughout development, ranging from design changes, misplaced leftovers and many other curiosities. There's also a fair amount of completely unused content too, most of them being leftovers from the previous game.

The Bugs Bunny Birthday Blowout is another mediocre mascot platformer, this one made for Bugs Bunny's 50th birthday. It's a blowout, alright.
Pictured is an unused ending slide found in the game's data. It features three characters who don't appear in the game otherwise: Marc Antony, Pussyfoot, and Road Runner. Yosemite Sam is in the main game, but doesn't show up to the party in the final version.
