Mostly because... we don't know a damn thing about it. How it would be, what it would be.
It basically never went anywhere.

It was in production for two years at Recoil (ex-Remedy developers). It was the main project Radar had in development since Human Head was busy working on Soma for Ubisoft.
Raphael Van Lierop (former 3DR creative director and Space Marine 40K head honcho) spent years on that project. They just couldn't find a publisher who didn't want to fund the game without buying the ip. Radar didn't want to give it up.
It's true not much was known about it, but back then Scott had great instincts. I would love to know more. They spent millions on it.

We go on to hear from Samuli Syvähuoko, the founder of Recoil and one of the original founders of Remedy. He details a tale of woe about Recoil being created in 2007 as Finland’s next great triple-A developer, taking €4.5 million in investment and putting together a demo for Earth No More, a high-end, post-apocalyptic FPS. While the team was pitching, the world’s finances went pop.
“We’d already spent all of our money,” says Syvähuoko. “Nobody was looking for a new IP. Nobody was taking any risks.”
