No One Lives Forever
(Not available for purchase digitally)

So i’ve been playing this game for about 2 years, whenever my internet connection is down i feel like playing this game, i illegally dowloaded it years ago, sadly there isnt,and i dont think there will be at least for a while, a way to get this game digitally, due to companies basically not knowing and dont wanting to spend time to look if they own this game or not, anyways the game is great and it aged great, the humor specially its great, the story is good, the music is what you would expect for a spy game, and the gameplay is great, specially the gadgets! If you can get a copy on ebay or so you should try it, even download it, i think that in this kinda cases you are entitled to download it

Formidolosus

This and the sequel are literally my favourite games ever. I loved just about everything about it and I would love a remastered version, even though I know the licensing issues mean it’s unlikely. I’m not sure if I’d want a sequel, as I don’t really know if I’d feel so great if they messed it up. So if they just took the old games, spruced up the graphics a little and kept everything else the same I would pay for them again. These are also the only 2 PC games I still have discs for.

i really enjoyed it and will be playing the sequel when i get the change, what do you think of Contract J.A.C.K by the way?

Formidolosus

Yeah I think it’s best to avoid that. It wasn’t made by the original team and instead of the clever level design and humour, it’s turned into a pretty generic shooter, with waves and waves of enemies. The 2 proper games stand up well even today, but I suspect Contract JACK would not.

This is a beautiful game and the confusion over the rights is such a shameful fate for a classic.
It came in on the heels of Austin Powers, and has a lot of that great Bond-parody 60s spy humor and style. Plus, actually great gameplay and interesting levels!
I still haven’t finished this or the sequel (though I played the demo a lot back in the day), but I appreciate a good reminder every now that this game is out there, and needs to be played.
