A man lies tied to a hospital gurney, blood seeping through his bandages. He can't remember how he got there, or for that matter, who he is. But something is wrong. He struggles against the restraints, scared and confused. Suddenly, a blinding light waves over the straps, and he's freed. Just what the hell is going on here?
Either way both games were great fun and definitely deserve some love (and possibly a sequel!)
Sadly, the generice Psi-Ops, with it's horrible story got more props, mostly because it had slightly better controls than Second Sight. Everything about Psi-Ops screamed "generic action game," from story to characters, but the gaming media ate it up, as usual. Nothing like a dudebro shooter to bring in the praise, even last generation.
Oh, I own Psi-Ops AND Second Sight, and I liked what I played of Ops (I think I got about halfway through it), but I never beat it, whereas I beat Second Sight numerous times, because I felt compelled to finish it.
It had a great ending as well.
I'd love to see Crytek release an HD collection of Second Sight, maybe packed in with the Timesplitters games.
Or just do a $9.99 HD re-release of it, like Ubisoft did with Beyond Good and Evil (one of my other favorite games of last generation).
