Platform: PLAYSTATION 3

Manufacturer's Description

In the not too distant future, the world is divided into regions controlled by mega-corporations known as Syndicates. In this future, business is war, and you are the weapon: the latest prototype agent for Eurocorp, one of the most ruthless Syndicates in a world dominated by greed. In single-player, embark on a unique sci-fi shooter adventure of corruption and revenge, as you utilize DART 6 chip-enhanced technology to breech, manipulate and control the wired world. Or form your own Syndicate in four-player co-op and dominate nine action-packed missions inspired by the original Syndicate game.

Syndicate is the re-imagination of a cult classic franchise from 1993 - a unique action shooter set in a not too distant future, where Business is War. 2069 – No longer governed by politicians, the developed world is divided up into regions controlled by megacorporations known as Syndicates. These Syndicates have revolutionized how the consumer interacts with the digital world. No longer does the consumer require a device to access the world’s data and control their technology, they can do this at the blink of an eye via neural chip implant. Civilians flocked to be “chip’d” and enjoy all that their selected Syndicate has to offer; housing, medical, banking, insurance, education, entertainment and jobs. One complete package. One complete lifestyle. In return, the Syndicates gained unprecedented insights, and control, over the individual and their behaviour. With little governmental oversight, business has become war. The Syndicates will stop at nothing for ultimate market dominance. At the front line of this war are the Agents, the Syndicate’s bio-engineered and chip-augmented enforcers. They can breach anything in the wired world including their enemies, their weapons and the environment that surrounds them, making them the most efficient and deadly technological weapons in the world. Take on the role of Miles Kilo, Eurocorp’s latest prototype agent, and embark on a brutal action adventure of corruption and revenge.

FEATURES:

  • Chip Enhanced Gameplay: Slow down time, see through walls, and breach your enemy and everything digital in the world with Dart vision – A neural DART6 chip implant that allows you to interface directly with the Dataverse.
  • 4-Player Online Co-op: Assemble your Syndicate for global domination. A 4-player, online co-op experience like no other, with chip enhanced gameplay and 9 missions re-imagined from the original Syndicate.
  • Visceral FPS Experience: Utilize an upgradable arsenal of futuristic weapons, armor and ear to annihilate your enemies and harvest their chip technology for personal advancement and sinister corporate greed.
  • Sci-Fi Fiction: Immerse yourself in the world of Syndicate 2069, with a world-class sci-fi story experience, written by bestselling author Richard Morgan.

These Syndicates have revolutionized how the consumer interacts with the digital world. No longer does the consumer require a device to access the world's data and control their technology, they can do this at the blink of an eye via neural chip implant. Civilians flocked to be "chip'd" and enjoy all that their selected Syndicate has to offer; housing, medical, banking, insurance, education, entertainment and jobs. One complete package.

Take on the role of Miles Kilo, Eurocorp's latest prototype agent, and embark on a brutal action adventure of corruption and revenge. Syndicate takes players into a dark, Machiavellian world run without government oversight with many syndicates vying for total dominance of their local market place. With no one to question their intentions or actions, three mega corporations - Eurocorp, Cayman Global, and Aspari - are at the forefront of this brutal war for control of the pivotal American market.

Fun:   
Eagerly anticipated this release after playing both previous versions of this game many moons ago and I'm disappointed. The geek in me has to confess that I don't like the way the original story line has been changed. EuroCorp agents in previous games were cyborg assassins given to human executives to complete missions set by EuroCorp. In the previous games you played the part of the human executive which made your agents somewhat expendable - and it some parts of the game necessarily expendable. Now it seems you play the part of the Agent in what is yet another FPS that seem to litter the computer game stores.

The game itself... graphics quite good but certainly not the best I've seen on the PS3. A very frustrating part of the game for me is the amount of doors that look like they can be opened/used. But once you arrive at them you find out they're just part of the wall detail - something that was common (and forgivable) in FPS games ten or so years ago but certainly not now. Maybe that's just my gripe! Another huge annoyance is the the fact that EVERY (and I mean EVERY) inaminate object is name tagged!! Why does a beer bottle have to be labelled as "beer bottle?" Why do I need to know that's it's a beer bottle as soon as I walk near it? Another very annoying graphic problem is that with some weapons your remaining ammo counter is displayed in the centre of the screen on top of your gun - right where you're trying to aim!! All in all - the screen seems very cluttered with useless information at times.

Talking of the weapons, they seem slightly uninspired compared with the array of futuristic weapons available in the previous games. Additonally, "Breach Mode" has now replaced Psycho Gas/Persuadatron/etc and gives you option to briefly control enemies. This effect is nothing compared to Syndicate Wars on the PSOne/PC where you could create a small army of 20-30 armed civilians following your agents round on screen doing your bidding.

The single player campaign is quite short and a little bit lack lustre in all honesty. However, the co-op mode in this game is rather good and probably the only thing stops me trying to return or sell the game. The co-op mode is more in the spirit of the older games where each player has a designated role/task. And it uses the original Syndicate maps - nice touch!! :)

As a summary, this is not really a Syndicate game, not as us (slightly) older gamers would know it anyway. I'm sure blevvies of gamers will love this as as sci-fi FPS, but for those of us who remember the original games - I think we wanted a bit more than that, especially after all these years. The co-op mode is its saving grace and is good fun. But personally, I rate Deus Ex as a better game and I would buy that over this any day of the week - especially if the Cyberpunk genre is you're thing, Deus Ex will not disappoint, this has the potential to.

a 6/10 at best! 20 May 2012

Fun:   
Syndicate had the potential to be a great game. Its blend of futuristic story lines, cracking level design and intriguing kill styles gave it all the poise in the starting blocks it could need to be amazing. sadly though it seems it hit a false start, the game itself is so heavy on the gun firefights that the suicide and stun functions are lost, blinding lights seem to be around every corner that in the early stages are fun but get very uncomfortable and annoying towards the end! Saving grace is the coop mode it brings back some more of the stealthy tacticle gameplay that it boosted for the single player but still its not good enough for what could of been so much better! at best its a 6/10 but doesnt have me clammering to play it again!

Fun:   
Syndicate isn't just your usual FPS game, once you've finished with the relatively short single-player campaign, prepare to lose a lot of time in the game's addictive and surprisingly deep co-op. Starbreeze's Syndicate is certainly an FPS you won't forget any time soon.

Graphics
Syndicate's visuals are pretty impressive all round. There's great vision from Starbreeze in terms of the game world, and a wonderful immersive world to lose yourself in it is too. It's also gruesome, and we all love a bit of gore.

Audio
Solid voice-acting with a great future-techno style original score. The dubstep inspired trailer isn't really reflective of what's on offer, although when they do use it - like in a certain boss fight - it does amp up the intensity.

Gameplay
From a control standpoint, although the game suffers from a few signposting issues, it boasts really fluid and responsive controls.
An enjoyable 6+ hours single-player campaign, that although is rather predictable in terms of story, is actually a joy to play. Throw in the co-op on top of that which gives the game its legs while promoting replayability and teamwork, and what you're faced with is one hell of an addictive and deep mode to round off the package.

Overall Score
8.5/10
