I'm a sucker for FPS's so they may see a few of my dimes if it looks decent.

At least they're even vaguely keeping the same setting/premise, unlike a certain other butchering of a beloved tactical game into an FPS

Well, you do have a busy life, what with keeping tabs on wild, rough-and-tumble forum members while sorting out the drama between your twenty two inner lesbians.

i really doubt it will succeed to maintain the same dark atmosphere the original had. besides, in syndicate the agents were kidnapped men who got programmed to assassinate, in here you play the good guy who goes to revenge against the syndicates. i find it dull and dumb and if this is how this development starts, i doubt we will see anything promising from this title. they should have at least made it a Hitman like game.

Honestly, I expected nothing else. The only hope these days for quality strategy games seems to be small developers and the indie folks. Everyone else is too busy whoring out whatever franchise they can get their hands on to the FPS crowd.

While I resent the assertions that an FPS is somehow an inferior style of game, THIS obviously does not do the series justice.

I know it's unrealistic, but I can't help but imagine little bearded babies for dwarves. In my mind, they come out of the womb fully bearded. That's how the mother carries them around, too, she just drags them around by the beard or ties it to her belt. When the father's on duty, he just ties their beards together and the baby just kind of hangs there, swinging to and fro with Urist McDaddy's movements.

Certainly not intended to be a remark against FPS's, as I love shooting me some people. But instead of making a new game from the ground up with it's own story, it seems to be the new thing to take an old franchise and cram it into an FPS skin, regardless of what the game used to be.

At this rate, the next Sim City will be a FPS.
