Cancelled Open-Ended FPS, Zelda by Retro Studios, GBC Baseball (Patreon)

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

Hostile Intent [PC]: a First Person Shooter that was being developed by American company Aware Entertainment during 2002 and 2003. With a fairly outlandish plot and a gritty look, the concept of Hostile Intent seemed to fall somewhere between Battlefield, Rainbow Six and even the James Bond series. It was described by Aware as an intense, fast-paced shooter while simultaneously offering an open-ended gameplay experience: https://www.unseen64.net/2021/01/19/hostile-intent-aware-ent-cancelled/

High Heat Major League Baseball 2002 [Game Boy Color]: cancelled sport game that would have been published by The 3DO Company for Game Boy Color. While other versions of the game were released in 2001 for PC, Game Boy Advance, Playstation and PS2, this GBC edition was announced but then never released by the company: https://www.unseen64.net/2021/01/19/major-league-baseball-2002-gameboycolor-cancelled/

Legend of Zelda: Sheik [Wii]: in May 2020 Shinesparkers published a series of links to the online portfolio of Sammy Hall, former Retro Studios contract artist who worked on concept art for a cancelled Zelda game based on the Sheika tribe. This unreleased, darker view on the Zelda timeline would possibly explore what happened to the last male Sheik after Ocarina of Time’s “Bad Ending” in which Link does not succeed: https://www.unseen64.net/2021/01/19/zelda-sheik-retro-studios-cancelled/
