That makes the work of preservation groups like The Hidden Palace invaluable. And now,\u00a0the group has dropped\u00a0more than 700 unreleased <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/playstation-2-hack-burned-disc\/\">PS2 game demos<\/a> and prototypes online for fans to pour over.<\/p>\n<p>The Hidden Palace held a 6-hour stream on Saturday, playing through some of the biggest names contained in the dump. Among the demos and prototypes, many of which were created specifically for the purpose of E3 demos during the PlayStation 2 era, were such high profiles as\u00a0<em><a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/god-of-war-cory-barlog-no-idea-directing\/\">God of War 2<\/a>,\u00a0<\/em><em>Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath of Cortex,\u00a0<\/em><em>Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 2,\u00a0<\/em>and many more.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"related-single\"><strong>RELATED:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/best-ps2-games-playable-ps4-ps5\/\">Best PS2 Games Playable on PS4 and PS5<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Dubbed &#8220;Project Deluge&#8221; the entire list of prototypes and demos\u00a0is available on the group&#8217;s website, with the total count currently sitting at 752. It&#8217;s a mind-numbing number as it is, but according to The Hidden Palace, more games will be added over time, and not all <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/best-ps2-games-2020\/\">PlayStation 2 titles<\/a>. The team has spent almost a year going through and verify the integrity of the software currently listed there, with the list taking up roughly 900 Gb of storage, all told.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"320\" height=\"320\" frameborder=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/www.twitch.tv\/videos\/956633893\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>According to The Hidden Palace, this list of software comes from a variety of sources, like developers and collectors, but it was mostly the &#8220;herculean&#8221; effort of a single person, who stopped the games from being sold or destroyed. That donor has remained anonymous, but it&#8217;s fair to say that they&#8217;ve made a massive contribution to games preservation as a whole.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/best-online-ps2-games\/\">PlayStation 2 era of games<\/a> is a particularly interesting one, as it marks a time when 3D games were truly beginning to come into their own. Having such a broad library of games will offer an unprecedented look into what game prototypes were like back then, which is a huge deal considering how much things have changed in the time since. Plus, the promise of more on the way is equally exciting, so it will be good to see what comes of it.<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime, anyone with access to an emulator now has a peek into a\u00a0bygone era of video games, and not just any video games. Games tend to evolve quite a bit between the time they enter development and when they release, so comparing these to the games that released will certainly be interesting.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"next-single\">MORE:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/best-ps2-fps-games-ranked\/\">The 14 Best FPS Games On The PlayStation 2, Ranked<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.videogameschronicle.com\/news\/group-shares-700-ps2-game-prototypes-including-shadow-of-the-collosus-final-fantasy-x-and-more\/\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">VG247<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/hiddenpalace.org\/Project_Deluge_-_Sony_PlayStation_2_(List)\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Hidden Palace<\/a><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"syndicated-attribution\"><figure class= \\\"wp-block-image alignnone \\\"><img src= \\\"http:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/test\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/logo2-2.png\\\" alt=\\\"IT\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2 java\u88dc\u7fd2 \u70ba\u5927\u5bb6\u914d\u5c0d\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2,IT freelance, \u79c1\u4eba\u8001\u5e2b, PHP\u88dc\u7fd2,CSS\u88dc\u7fd2,XML,Java\u88dc\u7fd2,MySQL\u88dc\u7fd2,graphic design\u88dc\u7fd2,\u4e2d\u5c0f\u5b78ICT\u88dc\u7fd2,\u4e00\u5c0d\u4e00\u79c1\u4eba\u88dc\u7fd2\u548cFreelance\u81ea\u7531\u5de5\u4f5c\u914d\u5c0d\u3002\\\"\/><figcaption>\u7acb\u523b\u8a3b\u518a\u53ca\u5831\u540d\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2\u8ab2\u7a0b\u5427!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<\/br>Find A Teacher Form:\r\n<\/br>https:\/\/docs.google.com\/forms\/d\/1vREBnX5n262umf4wU5U2pyTwvk9O-JrAgblA-wH9GFQ\/viewform?edit_requested=true#responses\r\n<\/br><\/br>Email:\r\n<\/br>public1989two@gmail.com<br><br><br><br><br><br><br>\r\n<a href=www.itsec.hk style=color:#FFFFFF;>www.itsec.hk<\/a><br>\r\n<a href=\\\"www.itsec.vip\\\" style=color:#FFFFFF;>www.itsec.vip<\/a><br>\r\n<a href=\\\"www.itseceu.uk\\\" style=color:#FFFFFF;>www.itseceu.uk<\/a><br><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Games preservation group The Hidden Palace is releasing more than 700 unreleased PlayStation 2 prototypes and game demos online.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":117,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"slim_seo":{"title":"Game Preservation Group Releases More Than 700 PS2 Prototypes and Unreleased Demos - ITTeacherITFreelance.hk","description":"Games preservation group The Hidden Palace is releasing more than 700 unreleased PlayStation 2 prototypes and game demos online."},"footnotes":""},"categories":[607],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/220989"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/117"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=220989"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/220989\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":220990,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/220989\/revisions\/220990"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=220989"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=220989"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=220989"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
