Activision, Sierra, Vivendi Universal, Fox and Monolith all have no idea who owns the rights to the game and it's apparently not worth the lawyer fees for any of them to make a claim.

Also, why not take a look at Yakuza Kiwami 2, The Last of Us Remastered, Crash Bandicoot, Okami HD, Halo: MasterChief Collection (specifically Halo 2), Burnout Paradise Remastered... Oh that's right these are console games... That's because PC isn't the be all end all, and PC does not get everything good. PC only gamers miss out. Your still waiting on Spiderman and RDR2. There are significantly less PC Remasters cause some of the best shit only gets to console and doesn't get Remastered to PC . I ain't even gonna start on the quality of Nintendo games you miss out on.

Nightdive tried very hard to get the games out just like a year or two ago, even had advertising ready for it. However the IP is old enough that it isn't in digital databases. The three companies that hold the various parts of the NOLF franchise are literally too lazy to look in their filing cabinets for their segments of the rights, which is why the NOLF re=releases fell through. At the time it was like Fox, Vivendi and WB that held the rights, something insane like that.

From what I remember, the only way to ghost through the game is as you play the games you unlock weapons and gadgets. Then you go back and pick the weapons and gadgets that give you access to areas that enable strealth. And Safe Cracker is probably the BEST level I have ever played in any game ever. NOLF kicked the most ass. And I bought a brand new computer just to meet the system requirements to play NOLF 2 right before it came out. Still waiting for NOLF 3 lol

No way. NOLF 2 is half the game of NOLF. It seemed more like an expansion pack with better textures instead of a full NOLF sequel.

In NOLF 1 you can collect intelligence items too. They upgrade Health, Armor and ammo capacity(not sure). I love that in the first one you can replay every mission with the weapons\gear you have unlocked...but sadly not in NOLF 2, you must use cheat's for that.

and this is why i didnt liked the sequel its not as good as the first one thr replayability is the reason why i didnt uninstalled it same with other games like soldier of fortune and hitman series

Perfect Dark and No One Lives Forever were perfect successors to Goldeneye. Totally love them.

a little note. You know when your mentor gets killed? If tou take the time to examine the body, you will notice that... he blinks. It already tells you that he was alive if you have an eye for details. Other dead bodies don't do that :D

Also if you shoot his "corpse" you get game over if I recall correctly.

You gotta admit the cutscenes in No One Lives Forever are quite something, I remember playing these games as a kid and loved em. Can't believe GmanLives actually reviewed the game too aha.

I remember seing a review of this game on tv and was sold right away. I was so excited about it, especially the parachute jumping part so I had to get it. It was one if the first pc games I payed full price for it. And honestly it was 100% worth it. Super fun game ! Plus it came with a game soundtrack CD!

Probably my all time favorite game. Besides fun to play, it just so witty and makes me laugh every time even though having played it at least 10 times already. I remember the game was included with our first Windows XP computer and I probably wouldn't have known about this game otherwise. So I feel very lucky for that.

This was one of my favorite shooters back in the day. I know a remake/sequel will never happen but man I'd buy it so fast if it did.

I'm only commenting because I have a very soft spot for Shogo and you at least showed it at the start and mentioned it so you had me for the remainder of your time.
