Theseis (AKA Thesis) is an action adventure that was in development by greek team Track7 Games, to be published by Ubisoft (?) for the Xbox 360, Playstation 3 and PC. The project was started in early 2005, but after a couple of years of active promotion, Theseis vanished without traces and we can assume that it will never be released. It’s possible that they did not find a publisher interested in their project.

In the original press release we can read more about the game’s unseen features:

-A gripping storyline that places you in a Greece full of marvel, danger and back-stage scheming, just beneath the surface of everyday life.
– Play with both Andronicos and Pheve as they race against men and monsters to uncover the secret of Theseis.
– Frantic action and intriguing puzzles. Challenge both speed and wit in every corner of this dark fantasy world.
– Colorful characters and localities, ranging from neo-classical buildings to the grim depths of Hades.
– Innovative customized new power graphic engine, built specially to portray the full glory of Theseis’ stunning environments.
– Dynamic original music score.

Death Race is a cancelled 3D racing game developed by Ocean Software for Playstation and Saturn, scheduled for the end of ’96 but that doesn’t seem to ever been released. The game was set in a distant future where the most popular show is Death Race. The game was a mix between the racing part (10 courses were available to challenge violent opposition) and exploration on foot in a 3D environment.

Dragon Booster is a cancelled racing / combat game based on a canadian animated series first broadcast in 2004. The cartoon follows the story of young Artha Penn, a boy who rides Beaucephalis (or “Beau” for short), the dragon of legend. He becomes a Dragon Booster, a hero to protect the world from the impending Dragon-Human war, and to unite humans and dragons for all time. [Info from Wikipedia]

In 2003 Eden Games were working on this project for the Playstation 2 and Xbox, but the game was later cancelled for unknown reasons. A DS version was released in 2005, but it was developed by Konami (KCE Hawaii).

Renegade Zero is a cancelled action game / third person shooter that was in development in 2001 by Cinematix Studios for the Playstation 2 and PC. We can read some more info in an old press release:

They hired the six most notorious bounty hunters in the galaxy to find “Renegade Zero”, an outlaw so dangerous that only a few people in the galaxy know of his existence. But with this kind of a job, you’ve got to watch your employers, and your partners, or you’ll be taking one in the back.
Renegade Zero is an action adventure shooter for the PC, Mac Playstation 2 featuring dynamic changing gameplay, fast action, a deep storyline, exploration, and adventure. Renegade Zero introduces a new level of realism and detail to it’s visual design and artwork, and expressive 3D characters with unmatched realism.

Cinematix was working on 3 games in 2001 / 2002, but they had to close down after a while, maybe for the lack of a publisher interested in their projects. Renegade Zero, Hirelings and Tankers: Smoking Barrels were all cancelled and vanished with the closure of the studio.

Covert W.A.R.S. seems to be a 3D action game with a strong multiplayer component, that was planned for PC and Playstation. Very little is known about it outside of a video shown around E3 ’97 so we can speculate that the project was later cancelled, but let us know if you have any additional information!

Update:

In EGM special issue “Guide to E3 ’97” it was mentioned Playmates as publisher. From an old news on Gamespot ( ex-Videogames.com ) we can learn that the title was in development by Black Ops and production was halted in early ’98.
