The Saboteur is an action-adventure video game developed by Pandemic Studios and published by Electronic Arts. The game is set in German-occupied France during World War II, and follows Sean Devlin (based on William Grover-Williams), an Irish race car driver and mechanic, who joins the French Resistance to liberate Paris.

As unbelievable as it sounds, Sean's character - along with all of his exploits - is based on a real person named William Grover-Williams.

[@chiefpurrfect8389]

Even his name sounds fake. I can totally see William Grover-Williams as one of the western athletes in that Japanese baseball game where all foreign names were super goofy and uncanny- second only to Sleve McDicheal, Rey McScriff and Mario McRlwain. Edit: how could I forget Bobson Dugnutt?

[@srxjoseph]

Does that include the cow exploding? :P

[@chompythebeast]

A toast to the heroes of not so long ago May we live up to their model

[@LilyoftheLake14]

Tough to be named William Williams with Grover in between. When his parents decided on a name for their son, they were either just uncreative and boring, or they thought it'd be funny if their son had (pretty much) the same first and last name. Lol 😋

The Saboteur is legitimately an amazing game, and it's a crime that EA mishandled the marketing and left the series to die in a vault - it could really shine with a remake or full-on sequel! Note you also don't need to idle, there's actually a "smoke" button! It's clicking in the stick on controller, not sure of the PC key - but being able to casually light up a cigarette while shit blows up behind you is a key feature of this game!

[@TheKarabanera]

It's the same on PC. Just click the sprint button when you're standing still.

[@01What10]

Fucking bad ass, bro. I love that they put that little detail in the game.

[@majansen666]

I hope Kevin will do a complete play through. The pure joy in his voice when he's playing makes it such a great video

[@jazzpancake1167]

The cows just blowing into chunks when you hit them with the car is something I will never be able to unsee…really enjoying the “British” mechanics adventures.

[@mrwolfz.8772]

I might be a single commenter with no way of reaching people, but I wouldn't mind a full series of these kind of games. I'm just a little sad that it's all about how well a video does. So, here's hoping this video travels far enough to bring us more of this in the future.. ♥

[@TF2CrunchyFrog]

This game taught me that cows are apparently made of papier mâché filled with blood bags and raw steaks and explode on impact like the world's worst piñata, while bushes are made of steel frames that can't be driven through not even by armoured vehicles.

[@mozzstickdestroyer]

One of the most underrated game of all time. A sequel to this would have been insane

[@Kaybug150]

Kevin cut out the best part - when the villain called Sean British, and he says "I'm fuckin' Irish" with SO MUCH disgust in his voice. LOL.

Ayyy cant believe you played The Saboteur! I was one of the long running fan club for this game, played it a tonne on PS3 and then PC. We had a tiny facebook fan group that ended up being found by some of the game's original developers. They joined the group and were amazingly humble and so happy to see the small yet passionate and appreciative fan base for the game; as well as all our compliments (despite the jank caused my forced crush time & premature release of the game via the publishers impatience) Thanks for playing this Kevin! a brilliant game given how the devs were treated. Its only a few £/$ on third party sites or origin sales if anyone fancies picking it up.
