@PoeFlow hell id be fine with a indigo prophecy/fahrenheit 2 game as well. though, im sure that we can be expecting a new game but im betting it'll be a new one entirely
Thanks for uploading this, I remember reading about this in an old Playstation magazine when I was a kid. Looking at it now I'm glad it was never released on the Playstation 1, it probably would have ended up like the shoddy and only just playable Urban Chaos. Finally gald to see it now, it looks great, I love late 90's videogame visions of the future.
Interesting tidbit about the aborted PlayStation version: David Cage actually claims he had a full version of the game running on that system. Very, very, hard to believe. But then again, this is the same man who has compared himself to Orson Welles.
omg i remember me and my dad bought this game from a factory 2 U clearance bin for 3 bucks and we couldn't figure out were our apartment was so we never played again lol.
I wanted to play this game but never got a full version. I knew it was a great game cause I read it in the PC game reviews. I hope I could play this game even if it took me some more years. XD
@MrSamwise666 The special edition "Hours" double CD from 2005 has the Omikron: the Nomad Soul versions of the songs on it. It is also one of the best DB studio releases from Bowie since the 70's in my opinion.
My first and favorite Quantic Dream game! I don't know if the sequel will ever be released but it probably won't compare to this one so I'll just stay with the original.
Many have already said it, but this was way ahead of it's time. It blended styles well and influenced GTA and related games in that it was the first to have a living breathing environment. Classic stuff! Bring on the sequel ;)
Can somebody help me!?! I installed Omikron off the actual discs I bought like a decade ago, it runs fine, but once I get to the main menu, I can't seem to access any of the submenus, new game, load game, options and even quit, I can't access them!! I'm assuming the enter button is whats supposed to work, the space bar just makes stupid noises, and every other button does nothing as well. I find myself crtl+alt+dlt my way out everytime.. anybody run into this problem too??
Was playing Fahrenheit/Indigo Prophecy since a few days now and remembered my days of Omikron. Oh man I'm so happy I ran into that game when I did, many years back. It's ideas, gameplay and world are still etched into my mind. Amazing game, far ahead of its time, and if you ever read the features that this game included you're thinking they're talking about Heavy Rain, not Omikron ;)
I'm glad you made this playthrough, Athrix! Was sorta looking for a Let's Play on it but this may be better too!
Oh man, I can't run it on my windows 7 :( HEEELP ME! lol I tried 2 days, like 20 hours, nothing I did works... I have geforce9800+, when I turn anti aliasing on at least 2x I see some shadows and some special effects but that all. Else, all is black screen, only see sneak and subtitles... I want to play it with 3d come on...
@TheCrusaderBin The fix is to just turn AA off. If you turn AA on AT ALL then the game will glitch. The game is still in 3D. You can turn on trilinear filtering and even triple buffering to help performance, but AA must stay off. It will support any resolution, all the way up to 1920x1200, probably even higher if you have a big enough screen, so it isn't like AA is exactly necessary.
@Aleksael Believe it or not, it's not about AA for me, new beta drivers (no longer beta I guess) works and the game is fine. Old games like this are not affected by AA very much but it always keeps the rough edges look better, regardless of resolution :)
@TheCrusaderBin If I'm getting you, are you saying you have AA on with newer drivers and you don't get the artifacting? It has artifacted for me on either AMD or Nvidia cards any time any AA has been on. AA is great and I use it almost all the time, cranked as high as I can without lowering framerates, even at 1920x1200. But I'll gladly turn it off if it eliminates a glitch. AA has a bug in FEAR that kills soft shadows and they really accentuate the game, so I zap it for that one too.
@Aleksael The thing is, I can no longer use nHancer at all, since it has beend discontinued. I also migrated to x64 bit windows7 (was on 32). Game works still after migration (I left the folders untouched on this drive) but obviously can't try it with AA anymore... and If you had the newer nvidia drivers, than you can't use it with AA either, nHancer has been not updated recently as far as I know.
@TheCrusaderBin You can run the game with AA and an nvidia card, standard forceware driver installs an nvidia control panel to handle this. And if you set your panel to do any AA at all by default then you would run this game, and think it is broken. Turning it back on brings back the glitch, turning it off cures it.
I am so happy that this game runs on Windows 7. I haven't played it since I first bought a Dreamcast, and I can't wait to start this game again.
Unfortunately, I had to download it to test it out before I found a copy but now that I know it works I can't wait to buy it and have the original box and everything again. I love this game.
@Nornami sorry about that. this was never intended to sprout into a walkthrough, it was just simply a test of how it runs on newer hardware at first. Then i got the walkthrough idea and it went from there, but thankfully it's only on the first part
Excellent post. I am playing this game for the 1st time. It runs perfect except for one thing.......If I go to the map the system locks up and I have to completely shut down. I am using XP and an nvidia card. I tried all possible solutions and none work. Hopefully I will be able to get around without ever needing the map. I'm happy you posted a walkthrough...I may need it.
omg i remember this. it was on tomb raider game as a demo but i could never find it...maybe cuz i was so young but it was so addictive..bout to go look for it now
wow, HD and no talking? I'm watching this! I don't have nostalgia towards it, I'm checking it out for "historical research" purposes lol so thanks for posting!
I had only played this game once, and the disk died. For the longest I thought I had dreamed the whole thing up. I'm actually kind of glad it's real. I love how it breaks the fourth wall like this.
i always ignored this game since it always received bad reviews...is it worth playing? yes i know graphics isnt everything but perhaps if they made the graphics a little better it would of sold better..fortunate we humans like eye candy...its like trying a date fat chick and say yea she is a nice chic..its just the way it is...should i get this game is it worth it?
This opening is insane. it feel more like an opening to a really good film. The graphics look great considering when it came out. I've never had a chance to play this but now I really want this game lol
This was one of the finest and savviest RPG's of its time, and was way too underrated. Most gamers still haven't even heard of it. Its a shame too, before there was a mass effect, there was Omikron. It was years ahead of its time.
could you post all of the awkward infomertials? i remember one that went something like... "suspect someone having nonconformist ideas tell a mind control agent" or something like that. its been a while. i even remember there was one infomertial that was posponing the weather.
Just picked up this game for $2.25. I loved this game when Dreamcast first came out. It was one of the main reasons I picked up a Dreamcast a few months back. Took months for me and my sister to remember the damn name of it though... Lol for some reason every time I went to my local retro game store I confused Blue Stinger for it....

i think this game shud run on Windows XP SP1 and SP2 but i had SP3 couldnt get it working, works on vista but not windows 7 64bit dunno about Windows 6 32bit maybe its just my gfx card i dunno
your very lucky , i don't know how to get this game on work on windows 7 , tried the combability mode win 98/me still won't go for it when i started a new game
@sirfortiscue "New Angels Of Promise" from his album 'Hours'.. Great album and all the music is in the game (with a few minor lyrical changes to put in the name Omikron)
One of the most enthralling pc games I think I've ever played. Easily in my top ten.
Graphics and gameplay are (and were even then) not so good, but a good story and captivating environments go a long way.
Sort of a Blade Runner futuristic film noir with a tinge of satire and social awareness. Great soundtrack thanks to Bowie and Reeves Gabrels. Everyone should check this game out.
So let me get this straight its been years since the first Omikron, and now they are working on a second one? What the hell...so what console are they gonna put it on? Do you know how long this game has been in the back of eveyones ones minds? Don't get me wrong I love this game when the Sega Dreamcast was still in style. Whats taking so long?
So worth it in my opinion. Heavy Rain was a fantastic experience and has made me a fan of David Cages work. I had actually played this game and never even noticed it was made by the same guy's who made indigo prophecy as well. To bad my copy I bought froze up after an hour of playing :(
Ach, me too. I loved Fahrenheit, but I have an Xbox, and I can't afford to get a PS3 at the state this country is currently in. Hey, maybe they'll finally make a PS3 emulator....though that's probably wishful thinking. :(
yes but i thought it wouldn't be cancelled for good, i mean yes they would focus most on making other games but they would never leave Omikron 2 for good ;/ ;/
I hope that the sequel looks better than this. I don't mean graphics wise tho'. I understand that you could only do so much on the PC back in those days. I mean I hope it doesn't look so... Flash Gordony, y'know?
Good old Omikron. Used to do this for hours back in the day. One of those games you just wanted to walk around and explore every possible back alley and part of the city. :) Fighting and first-person sequences could have been better but Omikron is still one of my all time favorites. Fantastic music too.
this game took over my life for a while back in the day. one of the best games ever made in my opinion. the graphics and game play were a bit ropey but you can over look that in a game of this calibre.
Nice job man I cant believe u recorded the whole game.I played this game when I was 13 that was 10 years ago and I still think about it. It sure brings back memories watching this. Maybe i'll watch this whole game instead of playing it. lol
i wanted it on my pc but to thick to install it will just hav 2 buy a dreamcast again but i had this game and it was amazing ive never played a game where u actually felt involved this and shadowman greatest games ever
Yah i know you get so involved in this game. And I had shadowman but I couldnt get past the first level. Got stuck on the cliff or smth. lol.And the graphics for that time are really good and u didnt need a 512 graphics card with 2 gb of ram and Pentium 4 3.0 to play this game. They really need to relearn how to make good games again. Its not all about graphics its about the story.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
No it's not about the story you homo. It's about game play. If you want a story go read a fucking book, or watch a film. Games are about being challenged both mentally and physically. Take Quake for example, not much story, but the most perfected first person shooter ever. Story comes last, not first. Story is just an excuse for having shit game play.
Come on with the OMIKRON 2 or HEAVY RAIN 2. Make it happen Quantic Dream!!!

Does anyone know what the first song is called at 6:00? David Bowie sounds wicked in that song like something out of a James Bond movie.

@sirfortiscue "New Angels Of Promise" from his album 'Hours'.. Great album and all the music is in the game (with a few minor lyrical changes to put in the name Omikron)

Hmm..hope this is any good. Well if atleast if it doesn't work on pc I can always download it for dreamcast.

One of the most enthralling pc games I think I've ever played. Easily in my top ten.
Graphics and gameplay are (and were even then) not so good, but a good story and captivating environments go a long way.
Sort of a Blade Runner futuristic film noir with a tinge of satire and social awareness. Great soundtrack thanks to Bowie and Reeves Gabrels. Everyone should check this game out.
Oh and nevermind consoles, then and now.

So let me get this straight its been years since the first Omikron, and now they are working on a second one? What the hell...so what console are they gonna put it on? Do you know how long this game has been in the back of eveyones ones minds? Don't get me wrong I love this game when the Sega Dreamcast was still in style. Whats taking so long?

@Darksyringe666 ps3, and heavy rain has slowed it down.
Athrix255 1 year ago
So worth it in my opinion. Heavy Rain was a fantastic experience and has made me a fan of David Cages work. I had actually played this game and never even noticed it was made by the same guy's who made indigo prophecy as well. To bad my copy I bought froze up after an hour of playing :(

@Athrix255
Well, it's been quite blurry since Nomad Soul 2 was expected to be released after Fahrenheit, and we all know that Heavy Rain was their last game.
I crave for a new Nomad Soul, maybe one that would deal with the genesis of the universe, within we would play Kushulain.

That theme song is strangely still very listenable even after all this time. I guess Bowie is simply incapable of producing crap.

Ach, me too. I loved Fahrenheit, but I have an Xbox, and I can't afford to get a PS3 at the state this country is currently in. Hey, maybe they'll finally make a PS3 emulator....though that's probably wishful thinking. :(

I hope that the sequel looks better than this. I don't mean graphics wise tho'. I understand that you could only do so much on the PC back in those days. I mean I hope it doesn't look so... Flash Gordony, y'know?
AngelOfIron 2 years ago
Good old Omikron. Used to do this for hours back in the day. One of those games you just wanted to walk around and explore every possible back alley and part of the city. :) Fighting and first-person sequences could have been better but Omikron is still one of my all time favorites. Fantastic music too.

this game took over my life for a while back in the day. one of the best games ever made in my opinion. the graphics and game play were a bit ropey but you can over look that in a game of this calibre.

i wanted it on my pc but to thick to install it will just hav 2 buy a dreamcast again but i had this game and it was amazing ive never played a game where u actually felt involved this and shadowman greatest games ever
MrCowell87 2 years ago
Yah i know you get so involved in this game. And I had shadowman but I couldnt get past the first level. Got stuck on the cliff or smth. lol.And the graphics for that time are really good and u didnt need a 512 graphics card with 2 gb of ram and Pentium 4 3.0 to play this game. They really need to relearn how to make good games again. Its not all about graphics its about the story.

No it's not about the story you homo. It's about game play. If you want a story go read a fucking book, or watch a film. Games are about being challenged both mentally and physically. Take Quake for example, not much story, but the most perfected first person shooter ever. Story comes last, not first. Story is just an excuse for having shit game play.
