With this reboot of series now as a FPS, there's been good buzz about it. Will this game be a hit with fans just like the original was? If your interested of playing the original Syndicate game, Good Old Game is selling at their site. Click here.

I remember the original, was tough as all hell...especially that mission in the middle of the Atlantic! It was very fun though, you had tech research, a vast artillery and body upgrades at your disposal, and that's back in 1993. Kinda mixed feelings that they changed its style to a mainstream shooter game, but I have to admit it looks good.

As folks are likely aware, the co-op demo is in the wild. It's good fun, particularly with other players who at least know how to communicate, and gives you a good overview of how the mechanics work. Aside from the demo itself hard-freezing on occasion, there are a couple of annoyances within the game proper:

I loved the first game !
I remember playing it a lot at my best friend's place, and when my parents bought our first PC (christmas 94), the game was in the first set of games he gave me (well, more like he copied the game on the floppy disks I gave him) with the likes of Doom 1&2, Dune 1&2, Lands of Lore, Civilization (only the fist was out back then) and Sim City 2000. Syndicate Wars kinda sucked and was quickly forgotten. I don't see the point of making a shooter and call it Syndicate though. Unless the game gets rave review, I probably won't bother with it. (although the nostalgia effect kicked hard when they used the old tune at the end of the trailer) |

Not really since in the Syndicate universe, the governments have become weak and are controlled by the corporations. National pride is no longer important, what matters most is getting power and money.

Interesting trailer; bonus points for the (unintentional?) RoboCop nods.
