Syndicate; about to be reborn ?

[Deklore]

I loved Syndicate and Syndicate Wars. I also loved UFO Enemy Unknown which is also being made into an FPS.
My problem is ive had my fair share of FPSs at the moment so cant be bothered playing another "not just another FPS" game.

I would have prefered if they stayed with a squad management game. If they did they would have been able to stand out above the crowd. I mean its not impossible, many games have done something like it before (Full Spetrum Warrior, Brothers in Arms, Rainbow Six), so theres no reason why they couldnt have come up with a similar interface and gameplay.

To me theyve taken the "easiest" way out. Target the biggest game genre (FPS) for maximum sales. But sometimes a bit of innovation goes a long way instead of being a sheep and following trends.

I am disappoint

hopefully this Cartel game will be the answer to our prayers but will it see the light of day in 2012 ?

take a look at : http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2012...ames-for-2012/

Dead State looks interesting, i'm a party based rpg fan so Mass Effect 3 will keep me busy

Sorry but I don't like it when they turn great games into some kind of shooter rubbish, they failed with Fallout and they'll fail with this.
Yet another game made by Michael Bay, all graphics and special effects, no fun factor.

ok, i know i've not been here for a ages but i thought it worth coming back to post this.... I found this which if you liked the original syndicate might worth keeping your eye on, as it looks very similar - actually a bit more involved by the looks of it.


if that's not your cup of tea then perhaps XCOM Enemy Unknown will be and should be out soon...

I really liked the original sydicate and dont shoot me but i liked the sydicate FPS too it made me forget about Deus Ex Human Revolution.

I really like the look of XCOM but im woried im too big a dumb ass to play it now, i struggle keeping track of units and stratagy on turn base games i just get owned when i take my skilz online. Hope this isn't a sign that i've hit the gaming equivelent of "THE WALL". Perhaps i just need to pay more attention.
