http://kotaku.com/the-sad-story-behind-a-dead-pc-game-that-cant-come-back-1688358811?utm_campaign=Socialflow_Kotaku_Twitter&utm_source=Kotaku_Twitter&utm_medium=Socialflow

Basically, that studio that restored System Shock 2 for a steam release can't do the same with No One Lives Forever 1 and 2. Why? "Thanks to the ongoing inability and/or unwillingness of three publishers—Activision, 20th Century Fox, and in particular Warner Bros.—to determine who owned the game, Night Dive is currently abandoning its efforts to revive No One Lives Forever."

Which sucks, because 15 years ago that game had more gameplay ideas, and frankly better gameplay ideas than triple A dog trash like Ryse, The Order, Infamous, Killzone, or uninspired, poorly designed, made for glorified servants lifeless husk of a game like Destiny, but then again the No One Lives Forever games had more ideas in one game than Bungie did in their entire career. But that's besides the point. Anyway it sucks, the game deserves to be in a position where it can be replayed on modern rigs/platforms without me having to go through hoops, because lazy.

uh right i have to system wars this up since the op was too tame, um This is why consoles are better because on top of being able to play games at a cinematic 30 faps with lesser graphics and less games, when console gamers want or shit even when they don't want a game remastered, we get it remastered to newer hardware. Suck it PC plebs.

Warner Bros has been pretty shitty and anti-consumer ever since they became a publisher. On my shitlist.

Whats funny is PC barely gets games to the point where they are now begging for ports of their old super old crappy games lmao.

Putting this trash in the same sentence as AAA blockbusters is pathetic. OP should be ashamed.

Never played the games but I feel bad for the fans that two shitty companies that are Activision and Warner Bros are fighting for the rights of these games. Both are trash publishers.

Word, why wish for a game that would be fun, has personality, and gives the players mechanics that effectively work with the narrative to create this struggling agent in the beginning into an ass kicking machine at the end. You know all the while giving her range of tools and weapons that give the player options and a level of freedom when tackling each individual goal. Why want that game, when one could play a game like The Order where it basically plays itself so the player can appreciate a true work of art that is a video game story starring some dude with a mustache, what an epic mustache it is too.

Honestly it is true, I should compare infamous to games more in its league like Alien Colonial Marines and The Conduit. Comparing it to good games is ridiculous, it's way too shitty of a franchise to be compared to good things. Might have to go commit seppuku for this shamefur dispray.

Perhaps they can make a NOLF 3 (4?) or a spiritual successor to the franchise ?

Well that's some crap right there. NOLF will always be one of the premier FPS titles of all time, it's too bad they can't get this ironed out.

I installed it for my kids on their laptop and they can't get enough of it. It holds up extremely well given it's age. It's a textbook example of gameplay flow intermingled with high-minded comedy. I prefer the original to the sequel. The game is expertly voice-acted and masterfully designed. I encourage anyone who hasn't played it to give it a shot it will run on a potato.

Lol at people comparing masterpiece games like NOLF with Infamous. Both NOLF 1 and 2 are brilliant games. I like second game even more than first one and it looks good till this day. The only negative thing about that game is respawning of enemies in some levels. Other than that it's 10/10. Giving that game anything lower than 9 is a crime. We need more old school spy shooters and less dude bro crap.

This thread made me wonder about the state of other Monolith Production games I've enjoyed years back.

**checking Steam** Cool, they have Tron 2.0 for $4.99. Aww, no AVP2, nor on GOG.

Don't play me like that, you know damn well if I liked a game this board would hear about it endlessly : >

At this point, you're psychologically incapable of enjoying (or praising) anything with the word "Bungie" on the box. Don't lie.

Don't hate on my grammar nazi ways bro. As for Dragon Quest? I really can't speak for the rest of the series, but DQ8 was legit. Almost as great as the gaming perfection that is FF8.

I've been noticing an abundant misuse of the word 'anymore' around here recently. For example:

"The Order is my new favorite game anymore!"

I gave up hope on the series seeing any kind of light again some years back. But to know that its revival was possible, that it could have been a thing, makes this all the more unfortunate.

Yes. The PS2 version got a 4.6. Versus the 9.3 of the PC original.
