Vaporware

When a company tries to sell you a product that doesn’t currently exist. But it is β€œcoming soon.” Very rarely does it actually ever materialize.

Show me what you actually have, I don’t buy vaporware.

Vaporware

Software that has been delayed so long that it will never be released.

Duke Nukem Forever was first to be made on the Quake engine, then the Quake 2 engine, then the Unreal Engine, then the Unreal warfare engine, its six years past its release date... face it, its never coming out.
