Syndicate remake

[TitanSound]

Coming next year. Oh yesssss.

I saw this and I'm a bit torn. Syndicate was one of the most enjoyable games I have ever played. Blowing up civilians with the gauss gun will never ever get boring.

Like X-Com they've decided to remake it as an FPS.

Fuckers.

But then, at least this does actually look alright.

back in the day, i saw an fps version of syndicate as the way forward. it was an absolutely awesome game, hope this lives up to it.

I like FPS games, but it's a crowded genre, where as a remake of the original could have been ace.

Except it's not a remake. It's Gloomy Grey/Brown Shooter part 29 billion: Syndicate.

The key concepts of Syndicate were managing a team of operatives, from a remote viewpoint. Tactics. Strategy (in terms of R&D and choosing missions). This is just cynical re-use of a fondly remembered name.

yeah the idea of it as a fps seems shit, i loved controlling all my wee hoods.

 

[revol68]

me and my mates always imagined a mod of it that used northern irish paramilitaries, would have been awesome!

 

[kained&able]

all i know is the command and conquer fps was awesome and so this will be too.

 

[revol68]

was the command and conquer fps not renowned as shit... or is that you're point?

Sounds a bit shit tbh. Syndicate was a great game and I'm not really a huge fan of FPSs so it's a bit disappointing that's what it's going to be. Doubt I'll be getting this one.

Oh man I used to love this game! Kind feel it's lost some charm losing the side angle view though and going FPS...but hey ho that's life!

 

[Stigmata]

It'll be great, it has the same name as that game i used to like

The logical conclusion to all this is that Facebook will be ported to FPS.

I hope they still have those cool cars.

Heh ZuckerDoom

 

[no-no]

Wasted opportunity, they should have left it as it was and spruced up the graphics, given it a multiplayer online mode.

Should've ended up something like Company of Heroes, it's pretty hard to get excited about fps these days.
