One of the games originally slated for release on the DreamCast some eight million years ago was an enormous 3D shooter known as Geist Force. In its BETA version, the game looked pretty cool, featuring many interesting landscapes to fly through, explosive and dangerous terrains, excellent flight dynamics, and smooth play. But it was scrapped by Sega CEO Bernie Stolar, despite receiving good reviews at the 1998 Tokyo Game Show.

But it isn’t dead. A former SEGA employee, now registered at Assembler Games, has stated that Assembler Gamer has acquired (legally) a copy of Geist Force for a nominal fee and is looking into redeveloping and releasing it.
