It is real. And here it is.
And it sounds exactly like Deus Ex.
Ah well.

Could be great, keeping an eye on it! And more games like Deus Ex is a good thing.Comment

The original Syndicate isn't on Steam of GOG. Any ideas where one might be able to pick it up from without resorting to internet hacker gangs doing it for the ****?Comment

Whilst I loved Deus Ex HR, this is a bit... wrong. I adore the original Syndicate and I'm going to want to try this regardless of what they do to it, but this sounds like a complete change in pace/style. Similar to X-Com and what's happening to that, it's a bit crappy to shoehorn a perfectly good style of game into an FPS just because...Comment

Oh lookie what we have here: another classic tactical strategy game rebooted as an FPS. I guess EA didn't get the memo about the fan reaction to XCom. This damn well better be good.Comment

Never played the original as I was possibly 2-3 years too young to be able to play that kind of game.
I'll forgive the genre shift if they leave cover shooting elements out of it though (not gonna happen).Comment

More cyberpunk games, yay!
More classic series raped, boo!
Main character's name, Miles Kilo, could win an award for dumbest name in gaming.Last edited by Guts; 11-09-2011, 21:55.Comment

4-player online co-op. I am... optimistic. Frankly glad that cyberpunk is making a small comeback too.

This kind of statement has been brought up before and the response to it is always the same: If there are so few fans of the orginal and the old IP is so worthless, why not just create new IP? Otherwise all that happens is we get a brief period of rumors and excitment for people who apparently aren't numerous enough to matter, followed by a **** storm when it turns out that a cherished classic is being turned into yet another shooter. People who never played the originals won't care, so what is there to be gained in not creating new IP? Dressing one game in the skin of another just detracts from its own merits.Originally posted by Boris View PostLast edited by Silanda; 11-09-2011, 23:19.Comment

Perhaps this was the only way they could possibly revive anything under the Syndicate wars guise? EA have released too many C&C games that flopped in recent years to know that selling more strategy games wasn't gonna bring the cash in. At least this way the franchise gets some attention it hadn't had for almost 20 years. Fans should be happy there is anything at all surely?
And why not make a new IP? Perhaps the people who got this game off the ground were fans of the original's premise / setting?Comment

Yeah, I don't mind this if only on the basis that I have enough faith in Starbreeze as a developer to make a good game that will feel like it's from the Syndicate world.
EA still owe me a new Road Rash and Jungle Strike thoughComment
