What’s the most innovative game hook that never took off or got copied? (alien.top)

Basically what’s a game that you’ve played that seemed so mind blowingly unique at the time but for one reason or another the game never took off and other developers didn’t pick up and run with it either.

The HUD being at the back of your car rather than in the corner of the screen in Split/Second. It feels like a no brainer that the important information is where your eyes are already focused, but I've never seen another racer do this.

God I love that game so much, I've put so many hours into it with friends. Anyone who reads this, if you're looking for a fun split-screen racing game, look no further. 10/10
