"At one point while playing and reviewing 007 Legends back in October, I realized that amidst the godawful execution, there were promising ideas at play. “If this game actually had some semblance of personality,” I said to myself, “as well as more development time, an actual budget, competent shooting mechanics, and stealth that wasn’t broken, it would actually be fun.”
It was definitely an optimistic viewpoint, but a valid one nonetheless. Instantly, I hurriedly searched my mind to think of any FPS series involving stealth and a spy theme that could potentially have a current-generation sequel. I waited for a response to come. Then I waited some more. Then I went to have a sip of coffee. Then I spat out the coffee because I hate coffee. Then, like a stealthy bullet to the back of the head, it hit me:

PCGamer : One of the great strengths of PC gaming is a back catalogue that spans decades. Companies like Nintendo emulate older games on their modern consoles, but that can't compare to the thousands and thousands of games you can track down from the history of the PC. But not every banger that's ever dropped on DOS or Windows is so easy to find. Some of the all-time greats still aren't available digitally even now, and your only legal way to play them is to hunt for a boxed copy on Ebay and hope it plays well with modern Windows.
Like the article said, No One Lives Forever has no known owner. This mean you can't buy it, but you can (for now) download it for free without repercussions. Just go to nolfrevival(dot)tk to get the whole series for free. Lol
Black & White was decent, back then my most played would be Worms 2 for the online multiplayer tho.
NOLF i didn't really get into.. I was busy enjoying Soldier of Fortune 2 online multiplayer in 2002 until the next big thing came in 2004: Half Life 2 and then the free online DM mode which came slightly after.
Takes a bunch of random games that were not available digitally and complains or makes a obvious point? that you cant get them anymore. Yeah, the gen x game list probably will do that.
And then there us the matter most of these can still be obtained (digitally) even some legally for free. Was this just a random thought? Oh gee I miss these games (or maybe I heard of), let me me pull something out of my butt for an article.
In today's Ripe for a Reboot, JDR looks back at Cate Archer's superspy exploits in The Operative: No One Lives Forever and its sequel. Why haven't we seen more of this lady and her adventures.
I'd love to see a remake of the first two games, the third we can forget about, then we can get a real sequel next.
Damn I remember playing this when I was a Kid.
But if I remember correctly, no one knows who owns the rights to this game.
Hell I'd even take a simple remaster on Steam so I could play these games with modern resolutions.
This was a great game for it's time. I wouldn't mind a reboot or somethinganother.
Player 2 takes a look at some classic titles that are hard to get running well in this day and age and puts a case forward for them to be updated.
not a big fan of this game even i played long time ago on my pentium 3 pc :p with 64mb ram and 8GB HDD XD!! and it was great but i don't really care about this serie
I'd love to see an HD remake of the first two games!
Yes! Yes! Yes! Oh, yes.
