Cancelled Heavy Gear Sequel, PSVita Detective Adventure, Battle Jungler (Patreon)

Keeping up with our cumbersome queue of lost games waiting to be remembered, we added 3 cancelled games to the Unseen64 archive:
Heavy Gear 3 [PC]: cancelled mecha based FPS that would have been the third chapter in the HG series, in development around 1999 by Savage Entertainment and planned to be published by Activision on PC. The team wanted to expand the mechanics found in previous Heavy Gear games, adding more robots, on-foot fighting and exploration, similar to what Titanfall did 15 years later https://www.unseen64.net/2021/06/12/heavygear3-savage-entertainment-pc-cancelled/
Broken [PSVita]: cancelled detective adventure game that was in development around 2011 – 2012 by Magenta Software, planned to be published by Sony on PSVita as one of their launch titles. The team was inspired by movies such as Mystic River, Zodiac, and Se7en: players would take the role of a detective in Miami, examining crime scenes and trying to stop a serial killer https://www.unseen64.net/2021/06/12/broken-magenta-software-psvita-cancelled/
Battle Jungler [PC Engine]:cancelled sequel / reboot of Konami’s 1981 Jungler, planned to be released on PC Engine around 1992. In the original game players move a long creature inside a maze, trying to eliminate three similar enemy creatures, so we can assume Battle Jungler would follow a similar gameplay (but with anime-style protagonists) https://www.unseen64.net/2021/06/12/battle-jungler-konami-pcengine-cancelled/
