15 Horrifying unused content in video games

Sometimes the scariest things in video games are stuff that never left the cutting room floor. Whether they be unused enemies that look like they belong in the SCP Foundation or Trevor Henderson Universe, nightmarish scrapped cutscenes or placeholders that have no business in these games, join me as we count down 15 things that were rightfully not included in these video games. Warning: This list contains some really messed up stuff. Viewer's discretion is advised.

#15: Knuckles Chaotix: Bloody skull

Whose skull is that?

Found with this game's files is this bloody skull with the word "tobu" written in Japanese under it. It's purpose is unknown.

#14: South Park the Stick of Truth: Pip's skull

Way to respect your dead, South Park!

Speaking of skulls, located in deep in the files of this game is the skull of Pip, an English child character who was killed off in South Parks fourteenth season. Even worse, it was apparently supposed to be a weapon.

#13: SpongeBob Saves the Day: Yummer

Hey look, the lost Flying Dutchman crewmate!

Located deep within the files of this game is this creepy looking face that appears to be partially hiding behind something. Fortunately, this was comfirmed to be nothing more than a placeholder.

#12: Race with Ryan: Creepy face

Was Ryan supposed to die at one point in this game?!

Hidden within the files of this game is a disturbing face with x eyes, a stitched mouth and red scribbles resembling blood. Even worse, this is located with the textures for Ryan's face.

#11: Cuphead: Beetrice Lutz/Betty Beet

This is messed up!

Located only in concept art, there is this unused beet enemy that appears to cry and attack by throwing her own offspring at the heroes. It is unknown why this boss was scrapped, though if I had to guess I'd say the concept was too dark for this game.

#10: Halo 2: Flood Infector

Just when you thought the Flood couldn't get more disgusting!

Found in The Art of Halo 3 artbook is this unused Flood form. Apparently it would've been able to regenerate its legs in seconds and would've spread Flood forms to take control over any nearby human or Covenant vehicles.

#9: Half-Life 2: Mr. Friendly

The Backrooms monsters are invading!

This alien was supposed to grab Gordon Freeman and induce "fatal copulation" unto him. Apparently Half-Life 2 was originally going to include sexual themes with some of its enemies to garner response from homophobic players.

#8: Left 4 Dead: The Screamer

Just what the zombie apocalypse needs!

Originally there was gonna be a special infected that would've screamed loudly to summon hordes of common infected. This monster was cut because he was deemed to difficult and confusing for new players to spot, so the horde summoning ability was given to the Boomer instead. 

#7: Friday Night Funkin: Monster's original design

Just when you thought shadow people couldn't get scarier!

As scary as the Monster is, his beta design is much worse. Along with the blood red eyes and teeth, this thing is looks like a huge shadow and is sticking out of a bloody Jack-o-lantern. 

#6: Luigi's Mansion: Elh.Spz

Who you gonna call?

Little is known about this twisted looking thing. Apparently it was supposed to be an enemy, as there are animations of it attacking and getting damage.

#5: Team Fortress 2: Afterburn death animations

Burn baby burn!

Added in the Pyromania updates were animations of the classes (sans the Pyro) flailing around before falling to the ground, possibly succumbing to afterburn. It's unknown why they were added or unused.

#4: Bully: Unused death scene

That's one way to get rid of somebody...

Originally when Jimmy was defeated at the chemical plant, a cutscene would've played showing Jimmy sinking into a pool of acid while Edgar mocked him.

#3: Conker's Bad Fur Day: Torture cutscene

Avert your eyes kids!

At one point when Conker infiltrated the Tediz base, he would've witnessed 2 Tediz dissecting an unfortunate squirrel soldier while he as alive and begging for mercy. Thankfully, this was replaced by a cutscene of 2 Tediz debating about the quality of the game before spotting Conker and getting "back into character".

#2: Mother 3: Unused boss

Ok, NOW we're getting scary!

Hiding deep within the files of Mother 3 are multiple backgrounds of an unused boss, including a distorted image of the games protagonist Lucas and the Giygas-like face above this paragraph. This boss is believed to be intended for a darker version of the final boss battle.

#1: Silent Hill series: Unused monsters

What is that thing?!

The Silent Hill series is host to a number of scrapped monsters, some of which could give Pyramid head a run for his money. Some examples include zombie miners with pickaxes for hands, human-like abominations fused with wheelchairs and living hunks of meat. For a complete list, click here.

You know, going through the scrapped and unused parts of games is quite interesting. You never know what you're gonna find.

20 Hilarious Henry Stickmin fails

 Sometimes luck is your worst enemy. Whether they involve impractical gadgets, cause Henry's literal downfall or are just plain embarrassing, here are 20 of the funniest ways you can fail in this series.

#20: Escaping the Prison: Belt of Grenades

Uhh... I don't even know what to say about that one..

Protip: When throwing a grenade into another room, be sure it can't bounce back into the room your in!

#19: Stealing the Diamond: Laser Cutter

U GET CUT! Y U NO BLEED!?

There's no confirmation that this thing was made or endorsed by Gadget Gabe, but it may as well have been.

#18: Completing the Mission: Smash

Henry psyches himself up a little too much...

#17: Breaking the Bank: Shovel

Never dig straight down.

Whether it's a subway (original) or a gas pipe (collection) he encounters, Henry literally dug his own grave!

#16: Fleeing the Complex: Undercover Agent

Somebody missed out on not ratting yourself out while in enemy territory school!

#15: Infiltrating the Airship: Retroglove

You look like an idiot...

Wow. This thing's as useless as the Power Glove.

#14: Completing the Mission: Charge

Oh my God, he just ran in.

Since when was the Leroy Jenkins approach a good idea?

#13: Breaking the Bank: Explosives

Handle with care!

Nothing says good safe fun like piles of bombs!

#12: Fleeing the Complex: Sniper Rifle

Henry's shooting fail turns into an MLG montage!

#11: Stealing the Diamond: Falcon Punch

Only one man is capable of that punch.

Henry remembers at the worst possible time that he isn't Captain Falcon!

#10: Fleeing the Complex: Sandwich

This one weird trick will make you SUPER BUFF! Weightlifters HATE him!

Henry's sandwich induced power starts with him kicking some ass... And ends with him taking a boot to the family jewels!

#9: Stealing the Diamond: Display Gun

Quick! Pretend you were joking! (Good one, right guys?)

Guns displayed in museums typically aren't loaded. Who knew?

#8: Completing the Mission: Middle Hammer

Not much of a brain in there to begin with.

Word to the wise: Don't hit yourself in the head with a hammer!

#7: Escaping the Prison: Bazooka

Uh... Way to aim buddy.

Henry's explosive rampage gets foiled by a U-shaped pipe!

#6: Stealing the Diamond: Rifle

Man, those FPS shooters make it look so easy.

In Henry's defense, this is probably the first time he's ever used a gun.

#5: Completing the Mission: CorrupTick

Henry's attempt at using an unusual tick goes horribly wrong!

#4: Infiltrating the Airship: Ball & Chain

Fail message: A winner is you!

This would've been the quickest route ever!

#3: Infiltrating the Airship and Fleeing the Complex: Charles

Hey look. Charles is here.

Charles just loves crashing his helicopter into Henry's position, doesn't he?

#2: Completing the Mission: Dance-Off

Do no./Cease./No./STOP IT!!!!!!

Here's an idea, maybe don't do outdated dances in the middle of a warzone!

#1: Series wide: The Teleporter

It's emergent technology. I'm sure it will get better!

The amount of times this device worked in Henry's favor can be counted on one hand!

In a way, Henry is like Wile E. Coyote, except that he eventually succeeds in his endeavors. There are plenty of hilarious failure sequences in this series, so feel free to mention your favorites in the comments section. Thanks for reading and if you're day isn't going so good, just be glad you're not this guy.

20 Hilarious Wile E. Coyote fails

 Even by Looney Tunes standards, the amount of physical harm this unlucky canine can endure is amazing. Whether they get him blown up, lead to him falling off a cliff or are the results of the laws of physics making him their bi.... Err, punching bag, here are 20 of Wile E's most hilarious failed attempts at catching the Road Runner and Bugs Bunny.

#20: Super nobody: Fast and Furry-ous

Spoiler alert: This is a bad idea!

Wile E purchases a Superman costume and jumps off a cliff in an attempt to fly. He only succeeds in falling hundreds off feet onto the hard dessert ground. Talk about a super fail!

#19: Train from outta nowhere: Hot-Rod and Reel

Where'd that train come from?!

In an attempt to trap his mortal enemy, the Coyote sets up a fake railroad crossing. The second he springs his trap, a real train rams into him. Ouch!

#18: Bridge out!: Gee Whizz-z-z-z-z-z

Talk about wonky physics!

In a reverse of the usual painting gag, the Road Runner breaks through a painting Wile E draws... And Wile E enters the painting when he follows suit, falling through the chasm it depicted in the process. Too bad!

#17: Bunny bomb: Operation Rabbit

Brilliant. Unfortunately, Bugs also thought so...

Not one to give up (though he should), Wile E tries to blow Bugs up with a bomb disguises as a sexy bunny girl. However, a sexy coyote girl shows up at Wile E's doorstep... Which just happens to also be a bomb, designed by Bugs. You can do the math.

#16: Size changing pipe: Soup or Sonic

Maybe get away before the Road Runner gets hungry?

During an old school chase scene, both the bird and the canine run into a pipe that shrinks them to the size of an ant. When they run back through the same pipe, the former returns to normal size... And the latter remains tiny.

#15: What was the plan here? Whoa, Be-Gone!

For someone who claims to be a genius, he sure does do a lot of stupid stuff!

El Coyote's tightrope routine ends with the rope he was using breaking and him taking yet another plunge to the hard desert floor. This time, however, the rope reaches him... But not without touching a powerline first. At this point this coyote could give Meg Griffin a run for her money!

#14: Running through the dark: Beep Beep

At what point does he give up trying to catch that bird?

Dawning light up helmets, our favorite highspeed rivals wind up running all throughout a dark mineshaft. As unlucky as always, Wile E runs in circles, bounces off the ceiling and floor and finally winds up in a room full to the brim with dynamite.

#13: Right to the body: Beep Beep

That moment you realize you picked the wrong occupation!

The Coyote's next attempt at striking the supposedly Speed Force powered bird (tell me you can't imagine the Road Runner wearing a Flash costume!) involves a spring-loaded boxing glove. When sprung, the glove sends the boulder it's attached to flying into a nearby cliffside, and then slams in it's setters face.

#12: Detonator detonation: Fast and Furry-ous

Bad luck, thy name is Wile E. Coyote!

Sir Coyote tries the good ole dynamite trick on Sir Road Runner... Unfortunately, its the detonator that blows up in this situation, as opposed to the dynamite. Kaboom indeed!

#11: Ramp of in your face: Zoom and Bored

Talk about bombastic!

Still on the hunt for some really fast food, Wile E builds a super long ramp on a mountain with a bomb at the top. It takes a minute for the camera to pan up to the ramp's beginning... and a split second for the bomb Wile E lights up to explode in his face.

#10: Exploding water stand: Beep Beep

Tough luck buddy!

Wile E attempts to tries to bait his avian target with "free water" (spoiler alert: The glass is attached to a bomb), to no avail. Later on he mistakenly grabs that same glass... Guess what happens next!

#9: Miniature tornado of doom: Whoa, Be-Gone!

Even when small, tornadoes are bad news!

For his final attempt this episode, Wile E breaks out a tornado seeds and a water gun. Unfortunately for him, his water gun misfires and spills out on the seeds, creating a small tornado that ensnares him and drags him all over the desert, eventually bringing him to a minefield. Nature can be so cruel!

#8: Physics strike again: To Hare is Human

The laws of physics must really hate this guy!

In this short, Monsieur Egolicious employs an idea making machine to help him get the best of Bugs. His last attempt involves setting up a boulder to fall on Bugs when he picks a certain carrot. The rope connecting the 2 doesn't release when Bugs plucks said carrot... But it does when an annoyed Coyote touches it.

#7: Magnet go boom: Zipping along

Who knew TNT came in large metal barrels?

Good ole Eatius Birdius tries using steel balls and a giant magnet to catch Eatius Birdius. The only thing he catches is a giant TNT barrel, complete with lit fuse. Kaboom!

#6: Earthquake pills: Hopalong Casualty

Always read the fine print, everyone with a brain!

Finding out too late that they don't work on road runners, Fuzzy MC Unlucky swallows an entire pill of Earthquake pills and starts shaking violently all over the desert until he once again falls off a cliff. Well actually, the pills wear off right before he goes over, but in his relieved state he accidentally walks off another cliff. Tough luck!

#5: World's strongest magnet: Compressed Hare

No magnet should be this strong!

After several failed attempts at catching Bugs for lunch, Wile E. Decides to use a giant super magnet. Instead of catching bugs, the magnet catches Bugs' furniture, some ships, the Eiffel tower, several satellites and a massive rocket, which blows up the Coyote's base of operations. Next time use a weaker magnet!

#4: Coyote bot, Go!: The Solid Tin Coyote

Even humanoid canines dig giant robots!

After several more failed attempts trying to catch the Road Runner, the Coyote constructs a giant metal coyote to get the job done. Though the robot does succeed at first, it eats the Wile E. instead of the bird and then runs off a cliff like its forever unlucky creator. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree!

#3: Too fast for bullets: Gee Whiz-z-z-z-z-z

Stupid bullet!

Our canine friend tries to put a bullet to his adversary's head, but the bullet gives up after he outruns it. An annoyed Coyote grabs the stationary bullet, only for it to explode in his face.

#2: The catapult: To Beep or Not To Beep

If at first you don't succeed, try again. If at twentieth you don't succeed, maybe try something else!

Our furry antagonist decides to go medieval and tries using a catapult against his feathered fiend. His efforts are in vain, however, as the thing always slams its boulder payload into him regardless of what he does to avoid it. During his last attempt, the catapult refuses to fire until he goes to the boulder, sending him through yet another obstacle course of pain.

#1: A cabin full of explosive carrots: Operation: Rabbit

Sometimes your worst enemy is your own ego. Other times it's an oncoming train!

Wile E tries to use Bugs' love of carrots to his advantage by filling some fake carrots with nitroglycerin. Unfortunately, he's so busy setting his trap up and stroking his ego that Bugs has time to move the shack he's in onto some train tracks... And Wile E doesn't notice until right before the oncoming train slams into the shack, detonating ever drop of nitroglycerin it held.

Some people just can't catch a break, especially when they refuse to stop chasing after impossibly fast birds. There was no way I was going include all of his failures, so these were just some highlights. I'll see you later. Thanks for watching. Also if you feel bad or the coyote, here's a fan made video of him finally catching the Road Runner.

10 Worst cartoon "protagonists"

You won't find these super stinkers near the Justice League or Avengers anytime soon. From incompetent jokers to conscience-free jerks, join me as we count down 10 of the worst designated "heroes" in cartoon history. To clarify, I will not be including characters like Cartman, Zim or Blackhat, as despite their protagonist titles they are clearly designed to be villains. I will also exclude characters like Rick Sanchez or BoJack Horseman, who have good reasons for being somewhat jerky.

#10: Mr. Krabs from seasons 5 through 8 SpongeBob SquarePants

He'll do anything for a buck, even if it means breaking the law!

In the first couple of seasons this crustacean was greedy, but quite well meaning and not too bad. In seasons 5 through 8, however, this changed quickly. Not only did his greed escalate to the point he'll drag people into his restaurant and force them to order food, several episodes showed him doing things like running a newspaper business that told life-ruining lies about the other customers, firing loyal employee SpongeBob just to save a nickel, and playing on Plankton's fear of whales to the extent he tried to kill himself. Fortunately, this character was reformed near the middle of season 9.

#9: Johnny Test from... well, Johnny Test

Not every kid is a good one.

This kid goes way beyond being just a little brat. Not only does he bug everyone around him with his whiney nature, he also causes major problems for his family and neighborhood by messing with his sisters' experiments. It doesn't help that he often receives little to no punishment for his misdeeds.

#8: The Teen Titans from Teen Titans Go!

Anyone else miss the old show?

Unlike their animated 2003 counterparts, these guys are really hard to like. Not only do they fight their enemies sometimes before they've even done anything, they also play harmful pranks on each other, wreck property, hurt innocent civilians and attacking their enemies before they've even done anything to warrant being attacked. That being said, the show does often bring up self-awareness about their unheroic behavior through self insults and the first movie puts them in a more positive light.

#7: Wally and Gus from Rocket Monkeys

These two are so bad even their own theme song mocks them!

Throughout this not so good show, these two morons repeatedly prove that they don't deserve their jobs as galactic patrol men. Not only do they cause rampant mayhem for everyone and everything around them, they also drove their arch enemy to villainy because they kept attacking him under the belief that he is a banana.

#6: Allen and Richard from... well, Allen Gregory

With characters like these, is it any wonder this show only lasted seven episodes?

These 2 are just plain rude. Allen is a self-absorbed little prick who treats nearly everyone around him like dirt and has a stalkerish crush on the much older principle of his school. Richard is no better. Not only did he stalk Jeremy until he left his family to be in an abusive relationship with him, he's also so incompetent at his job that the higher ups made him the "Super CEO" so he doesn't ruin the company.

#5: Henry and Ray from the Adventures of Kid Danger

Super heroes, they are not!

Sure they had moments of question morality in Henry Danger, but here they're just ridiculous. Not only do they repeatedly refuse to save the day because they were "too busy" playing video games or eating at a restaurant, but they also cause far more problems than any of the actual villains in the show.

#4: Sparky from The Fairly Oddparents

Don't let that big smile fool you, this guy is a menace to society!

This sob is widely considered one of the biggest reason for this show going down the toilet and its very easy to see why. From his first appearance alone, he caused immense problems with his magic and twice nearly got Timmy killed in a plane crash and a flood, while feeling no guilt about it. His appearances in other episodes were no better, to the point that fan's celebrated when he was confirmed to not be coming back for season 10.

#3: Peter Griffin from modern Family Guy

In all fairness, most of Family Guy's other main characters aren't much better.

He was once a well meaning if dimwitted and childish individual, but now he's one of the biggest jerks in cartoon history. He's abusive to his wife and kids, he's a major threat to everyone and everything around him and to top it all off, he virtually never regrets any of his actions and often gets off scot-free with them.

#2: Scrappy from The Little Pest

Scrappy (left) right before he sends his innocent little brother to make his maker.

This little bastard only appeared in a few old shorts, but this one alone puts him on the list. While going fishing, he repeatedly yells at his baby brother Oopie that he can't come along, going as far as to slap him hard enough to send him flying a short distance. When Oopie manages to catch up and accidentally tangles to fishing lines, Scrappy throws him right into the lake. As if that wasn't bad enough, he walks away pretending not to hear Oopie's cries for help and only goes in to save him so he doesn't get punished for his death. To top off this misery sundae, when the revived Oopie requests a drink of water, Scrappy responds by throwing him right back into the lake to drown.

#1: Ren from Ren & Stimpy Adult Party Cartoon

Somebody forgot their likeability pills today!

His original incarnation might've been a major jerk, but he least has some redeeming qualities. This version, however, is nothing but a monster. After a childhood of subjecting innocent animals to horrible torture, he lusts over scantily clad women, regularly consumes drugs and alcohol and is horribly abusive to Stimpy, even when he's supposedly pregnant.

Dishonerable mentions

Here are a few protagonists that aren't as bad as the ones above, though that's not a compliment.

Sway Sway and Beduece from Breadwinners

They mean well, they just don't have brains!

Yes these guys might annoy their fellow characters and cause more harm than good, but from what I've seen they have good hearts and often try to make up for their wrong doings, which is more than I can say for the characters who made the list.

Caillou and D.W. from Caillou and Arthur

You know the difference between these two, DarkSyde Phil and Onision? Two of them are obnoxious brats nobody likes and the other two are pictured above.

These kid might be highly obnoxious and prone to temper tantrums, but their wrong doings are nothing compared some of the stuff the entries above have done.

Bloo from Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends

Out of all the characters on this list, Bloo is possibly the most likeable.

I honestly don't get why some people hate this character to be honest. Yes he's bratty, selfish and willing to step all over his friends to get what he wants, but there have been countless times where he treats his friends like actual friends and the show often punishes him for his misdeeds.

Yeah, this probably isn't the most upbeat way to ring in the new year, but I hope you enjoyed reading this anyway. If you can think of any more protagonists who don't deserve that title, be sure to mention them. I'll see you later. Here's to hoping this is the year the Covid-19 pandemic comes to an end.
