Cancelled Racing-Adventure, Ninja Stealth, Online Shooter (Patreon)

Keeping up with our absorbing queue of lost games waiting to be remembered, we added 3 new cancelled games in the Unseen64 archive:  

Ion Runner [GameCube, PS2, Xbox, PC]: a cancelled racing / on-rail shooter game that was in development around 2002 – 2003 by Attention to Detail, the team mostly known for such titles as Rollcage, Lego Racers 2 and Drome Racers. The game initially started as a classic 3D racing – on rail shooter, in which players would drive their overbike through different levels while shooting down enemies. After a while the team toyed with a more open adventure-alike gameplay: https://www.unseen64.net/2019/11/26/ion-runner-cancelled/

Blood Dust [Xbox 360, PS3]: a cancelled multiplayer shooter in development at Visceral Games / EA from presumably late 2008 to 2011.
