Gamebosh writes: "World War II may be an overused setting in video games, but with the countless stories the war contained, it's a welcome setting in my eyes. While the genre that depicts the war the most is first-person shooters, whenever a different game type enters the setting it comes as a relief. Velvet Assassin may not have been to everyone's taste, but undergoing some stealth espionage against the Nazis was perfectly fine by me. The Saboteur opts for a Nazi-occupied sandbox Parisian setting - a setting that open world games have avoided before - delivering the same game-play as Grand Theft Auto, with a hint of Assassin's Creed ."
Backward compatibility works for many games on newer consoles, but titles such as The Simpsons: Hit and Run have been left out.
This is a nice collection of classic. EA has opened its vaults and released a series of classic PC games to Steam for the first time ever.
f you haven't already, consider getting 8-Bit Armies or the new 9-Bit Armies. They're made by some of the same folks from the older C&C, with very similar mechanics; it's just the aesthetics that are completely different.
C&C Red Alert 3 and The Saboteur were two different yet completely unforgettable games to me from a better era of EA.

Actually great list TBH I agree with all 10
I hope one day we get some remakes for the following
The saboteur(with a proper remake and quality of life features this game could be great)
Scarface world is yours
Binary domain ( such a great game with great story)
GUN(this needs a remake)
Space marine 40k(such fun time)
Would also like to suggest adding the mercenary series even the 2nd game which is disliked by many is a fun time
I recently finished Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine and found it to be very enjoyable.
The game respected the lore and the gameplay was quite decent.
The color palette was a bit underwhelming (backdrops and setting) and recycled but I think that it deserved better.
Here's hoping for an amazing sequel
Good game. Pandemic didn't deserve to close after this. Probably the best game they have made and one of the best open world games this year IMO.
