Syndicate Intro

Introduction sequence from the PC classic, Syndicate. While it might look a little dated by modern standards, it's still enjoyable to see how the agents are "recruited" to the corporation and brainwashed.

Sadly, you can't knock people out by running them over in the game, you just plow them down and kill 'em :(

No, they shouldn't. They'd mess it up to a pile of bullcrap.

It makes me sad knowing we will never again see Cyberpunk games in this visual and musical style.

God, this game looked like crap on the PC port. Even the midi sounds and music were worse.  I'm glad I grew up playing it on the Mac back when it dominated the gaming market. Good quality then.

@teas926 Yeah, the original was a true classic and one of my all-time favourite Miggy games. Also notice how trolling muppets like soulassssns has STFU now that actual gameplay footage has been released. It's not the Syndicate successor he was hoping for, rather a bland, garish and dull looking Deus Ex copy. A poor one at that.

@sabin110581 I agree entirely. This was the era when games were truly great. I played this on the Amiga back in days of old and thought this intro sequence was the most spectacular thing I had ever seen. A true classic.

An fps version could work if say you controlled the agents remotly from a bunker.

Which would allow you skip from one agent to another.

But for christ sake don't turn it into a Deus Ex knockoff.

@FoxRoxification while I loved this game on the pc, the first thing I played it on was the super nintendo and its controls wherent that bad as far as I remember. syndicate wars controls wherent bad on the playstation as well.

[Wobbles909]

its funny but I still see syndicate as one of the most futuristic games going. I play deus ex HR now thinking in the back of my mind how its trying to be like syndicate. I dont think starbreeze realise that an original concept like syndicate doesnt need to be the big face melting fps they are making for the consoles and ultimately the real life corporation that is ea. if the game was a fps back in the day, I dont think I'd be watching this video nostalgically and thinking about reinstalling it.
