PS2 Underrated Gem: Project: Snowblind

This is a series of gameplay vids I'm doing highlighting overlooked games for the PS2.

Project: Snowblind is a branch off of the Deus Ex series. According to wiki:

"It was originally conceived as a multiplayer-focused third game in the Deus Ex series, Deus Ex: Clan Wars. But after the less than expected commercial performance of Deus Ex: Invisible War, it was decided to set the game in its own universe."

The game still shares similar elements to the Deus Ex series, like a bio-modification like system, but it plays as a more scripted FPS game as opposed tot he more open approach in the Deus Ex games.

Overall it's still a fun FPS, and is worth playing.

My only two complaints with the game is the controls are a little off. As you may notice, the up and down bleed into the left and right aiming, and vice versa. That means that at times looking up or down takes you to a little tot he left or right, or aiming left or right takes you slightly up or down. It means that you may need a split second longer to acquire a target.

My other complaint is that they killed the online mode for the PS2 version, so if you were wanting to play it online, that's no longer an option.

Project: Snowblind is also available on the PC and Xbox.

@DoctorWeeTodd

There's also a connection with Deus Ex Human Revolution. The Xbox and PC ports of Project Snowblind were handled by Nixxes Software which also handled the PC port of HR.

[DoctorWeeTodd]

Project Snowblind was originally a Deus Ex spinoff called "Deus Ex: Clanwars."

But after DX: Invisible War bombed, and Ion Storm shut down Eidos decided that it would best not to use that IP.

You can still see a lot of Deus Ex influence in the game from augs, to the story.
