Cancelled 3D RPG from the '90s, Sci-Fi Famicom adventure, FarCry on PSP and.. (Patreon)

Keeping up with our ancient queue of lost games waiting to be remembered, this week we added 4 cancelled games in the Unseen64 archive:   

Forgotten Castle: The Awakening [PC]: a cancelled action RPG in development by Twin Dolphin Games around 1992 – 1993, to be published on PC by Electronic Arts. The project was quite ambitious for its time: a fully 3D explorable fantasy world in early ‘90s was something amazing to see in screenshots (The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall was released 3 years later) and the game was previewed with high hype by many magazines. CDs were not much used for PC games and this would have been released on 9 disks, quite a massive size for ’90s games: https://www.unseen64.net/2019/04/26/forgotten-castle-pc-cancelled/

FarCry [PSP]:A PSP FarCry game was in development around 2006 by Ubisoft Montreal, as found out thanks to a FTP leak and a developer’s resume. Unfortunately this PSP project was never officially announced by Ubisoft so we don’t have any detail on its gameplay. It seems it would have been a FarCry 2 conversion, but we can assume it would have been much different from the original PS3 and xbox 360 version: https://www.unseen64.net/2019/04/26/farcry-psp-cancelled/

Cosmic System [NES / Famicom]:  a cancelled NES / Famicom Disk System sci-fi RPG that was in development sometime in the late 80s by WaveJack / Imagineer / Atlus. Only a single screenshot was published in Famimaga magazine (April issue) when developers made some kind of contest asking to the readers to send character designs that would have been used for their new game: https://www.unseen64.net/2019/04/26/cosmic-system-famicom-cancelled/

CZ [Xbox]: During many years of saving media from lost video games, we often find a game with no more details than a few screenshots, not knowing who was working on it nor even its title. This is the case with this cancelled project planned for Xbox, of which we just have screenshots with a file name “CZ”: what was this exactly? We are not sure: https://www.unseen64.net/2019/04/26/cz-xbox-cancelled/
