Gameplayer has gone live with a preview of Pandemic's new WWII era IP called Saboteur. The article includes quotes from the Lead Designer, new information and screens.
"To reinforce the emotive aspect of your struggle, the team has devised a game mechanic called Will to Fight, which provides stark graphical cues about the gameworld. Rather than the literal interpretation of most WWII shooters, Saboteur takes a more cinematic approach, where the presence of German troops has drained the very colour from the world, choking occupied France in its noir-ish black-and-white grip."
Backward compatibility works for many games on newer consoles, but titles such as The Simpsons: Hit and Run have been left out.
This is a nice collection of classic. EA has opened its vaults and released a series of classic PC games to Steam for the first time ever.
f you haven't already, consider getting 8-Bit Armies or the new 9-Bit Armies. They're made by some of the same folks from the older C&C, with very similar mechanics; it's just the aesthetics that are completely different.
C&C Red Alert 3 and The Saboteur were two different yet completely unforgettable games to me from a better era of EA.
GF365: "Here are our picks for the ten most underrated third-person shooters that you might not have played before or even known about."
Actually great list TBH I agree with all 10
I hope one day we get some remakes for the following
The saboteur(with a proper remake and quality of life features this game could be great)
Scarface world is yours
Binary domain ( such a great game with great story)
GUN(this needs a remake)
Space marine 40k(such fun time)
Would also like to suggest adding the mercenary series even the 2nd game which is disliked by many is a fun time
I recently finished Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine and found it to be very enjoyable.
The game respected the lore and the gameplay was quite decent.
The color palette was a bit underwhelming (backdrops and setting) and recycled but I think that it deserved better.
Here's hoping for an amazing sequel
