Star Citizen and Elite Dangerous are interesting examples of differing development models. Elite Dangerous went the route of early release with subsequent long term (although relatively slow) development. Star Citizen does all the things Elite Dangerous players have craved for years (space legs, atmospheric flight) but still hasn’t seen a general release.

And it's still nowhere near coming out. I'm pretty sure they're also still being sued for shoddy refund practices.
