In what world is 2012 the "mid 2000s"? Mid 2000s is either 2004-06 or 2400-2600. 2012 is early 2010s. Obsidian are known as yet another previously good studio that succumbed to pushing the agenda. Yet again you fail to understand numbers, 2010 is not "miss 2000s". I'm starting to doubt you can tie your own shoes.

I would add The Saboteur to this list. I recently played it on Steam. It was overlooked when it first released on consoles many years ago during at time GTA clones were everywhere. But The Saboteur stands out as a must play for anyone who likes the genre. It is actually more like a mix of Mafia, Hitman, and Just Cause.

It really is criminal that Forgotten Sands didn't get the attention that it deserved. I played the PS3 version, and whilst it wasn't the best entry in the series, it felt like a return to form after the 2008 game, and the visuals and gameplay still hold well to this day. It really needed a follow-up that took place before Warrior Within

You know, binary domain plays identically to vanquish. Even though they're published by Sega. The Japanese may be decent on creating third-person shooter games.

@YesNo-yl6ws agreed I got a physical copy for my PS3 and a digital one for my Xbox. I hope it gets brought back. While not preferred, music licensing seems to be what got it removed. Get rid of the music, create some new stuff, and sell the game again. Like I said no ideal as the music does help the atmosphere. But 2K is cheap beyond basketball and anything Rockstar puts out. So we'll see.

Yeah ok, but you never once mentioned what happened to these games in reality and of course people tend to forget that. First most of them suffered from the Titanfall 2 syndrome (due to contractual obligations they had to be released into an already quality packed market) second their developers never once thought or maybe they didn’t have the means to release at a slightly discounted price to avoid fierce competition. Take Vanquish for example released the same day as Fallout New Vegas, had no online features, 4-5 hour game at a premium price. You do the maths.
