A shame about the IP hell that this game is trapped in. 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. A shame because for all its faults, it really was a game that had 110% charm.

On the other hand, I’ve seen dishonest anti SJW too. Like Arch (yes that Arch), who assumes that Kamala Khan would be stoned to death without realizing that she is a Pakistani American in New Jersey.

@Sursurk nah dont agree. I had Skyrim on PC when it came out and ran it on Max settings, no issues. Now I have the Special Edition on PS4 Pro which looks WAY better then the PC version did. 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. Unless of course you get it illegally and download 50 different programs and update the shit out them just to simulate a fuckin controller we just only need to switch on.

As the XIII Remake just came out, I fondly remember this game from back then. I remember fans of F.E.A.R. had been asking for either a sequel or a Remaster for years.

@revenile

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.

You can't really talk about adaptive music systems without a HUGE shout out to Lucasarts iMUSE system. I think they were one of the first and the best. TIE fighter is the game that comes to mind that really nailed it with the adaptive music. It came out in 1994 - 6 years before NOLF I loved the Lithtech games. They were always colourful and fun, and pretty fast paced. ID games were technologically ground breaking but had that 'I live in my parents basement and only listen to Metallica' vibe to them.

This in combination with random npc conversations adds to immersion. Stealth games have come a long way and their's plenty to learn from to make this a better game.

I KNEW I WASN'T CRAZY! For so damn long, I couldn't remember the name of the game. I just remember having it and playing it until I got stuck somewhere. Couldn't proceed through the level anymore so I left it alone. But I remember having fun playing it. Thank goodness to Matt.

I like how a game from the 2000's has better audio for random NPC interactions than a million dollar AAA game developed in the late 2010's, like Far Cry. I first played this game on the PS2 because back in that era I did not have a very good PC. I remember thoroughly enjoying this on the PS2. At first I was put off by it because I thought it was a "game for girls", and I was more into stuff like GTA and MGS. But I was bored one day and decided to just try it out and it quickly became one of my favorites. I actually had no idea it was on PC so I think I'm gonna have to check that out.

This is actually the one and only game i fell in love with since it came out. It had its issues and it was frustrating at times but I find it to be a masterpiece, a really unique game like those you get the chance to play very rarely. I would be concerned it they’d do a third episode, they would ruin it for sure.

There were also cool little details. If you don't get the parachute in time it says you hit the ground at like 200 mph. If you hop on a train at the factory it shows you a map where the train goes literally around the entire world through impossible routes until you're back at the factory.

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

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.

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.
