Then, executive meddling struck.

The port was cancelled in a single meeting. Not scrapped — cancelled . The working build still existed on a dev kit somewhere in a locked closet in EA’s Redwood Shores office. In 2012, a former tester leaked a short, shaky-cam video of the Omaha Beach level running on a 360.

If found, it would be one of the rarest pieces of FPS history: the lost port of a PC classic, fully finished, killed by corporate strategy, never to be played.
