• Development Hell: Was in development for most of the late 90's with much hype behind it, and was even finished and ready to ship, only for EA to can its release.
• Keep Circulating the Tapes: The game is widely available for download in various forms online, thanks in part due to the developers leaking it after EA canceled the games release. Since the game may never see an official release, the game will only have life on the web through circulation.
• Screwed by the Network: Thrill Kill was just weeks from being released when its publisher (Virgin Interactive) was bought up by Electronic Arts, who refused to release it to the public for its extreme violence. They also refused to sell it to anyone else.
  • As a consolation, the developers later reused the core technology behind the game for Wu-Tang: Shaolin Style, a fighting game based on the rap group. The engine was also used in the 2000 game X-Men: Mutant Academy, its 2001 sequel X-Men: Mutant Academy 2, and the 2000 game Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots Arena.
• Vaporware: It was supposed to have been cancelled by EA acting as Moral Guardians, but a Developer Revolt led to the game making it to the internet anyhow.
