Product Description

Manufacturer's Description

Combining an atmospheric, psychological thriller narrative with paranormal psychic abilities, stealthy exploration and intense shooter action, Second Sight brings a new dimension to stealth action games, giving players control of a character endowed with incredible psychic abilities. The game offers multiple approaches to completing levels either via stealth, dramatic gunplay, psychic powers or a combination of all three. The ability to psychically influence characters and remotely manipulate objects and individuals provides for a totally fresh gameplay dynamic.

Second Sight opens with John Vattic, the player-controlled lead character, as he awakens from a coma in a US medical facility where he has been subjected to traumatic surgery and experimentation. He doesn't know his name, he can't remember his past, all he knows is that his only hope for survival is to escape and unravel the mystery that has led to his imprisonment.

4.0 out of 5 stars its pretty good, 15 Sep 2004
By Mr. A. Shaw "freedoms_stain" (Scotland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Theres 2 ways you can play this game, run in shooting psi powers blazing, or stealth it up, sneaking past enemies and using psi powers to help you do it. Option 1 will get you killed quickly and repeatedly.

If you prefer option 1 don't buy this game, cus you will get bored of option 2 very quickly.

If option 2 sounds appealing read on.

The main feature of the game is the Psi powers, initially all you have is 'telekinisis' you can move opjects about with this, you can use it as a weapon and whack enemies with chairs and stuff, but its pretty slow, so not your first choice.
you'll quickly obtain 'healing' guess what that does! and 'psi attack' another easy one there and 'charm' which allows you to sort of appear invisible so long as you don't get too close and don't touch anybody. those are the only powers iv uncovered so far but i believe there are more.
There are also a plethora of weapons available (in the flashback missions in particular, but im not giving away the story!'

The grahics are pretty impressive, especially the ones related to psi powers, blue energy waves emit from your hand for telekinisis, the scenery warps when you psi attack and your form becomes all fuzzy.

The voice overs aren't partiularly great, but the main characted stands out above the rest. the music and sound effects both good up to scratch.

The control system is not bad, is quite responsive and favours the L and R buttons over the shapes, which i actually prefer, mite not be to everyones taste.

all in all its a fun game, but for the thinking stealthy warrior rather than the all out gunner.

5.0 out of 5 stars Play it again! Play it agian!, 14 Sep 2005
Second sight came out around the time of Psi-ops, which seems to have a very similair premise to this one.

In both you can use either guns or psi abilities. And in both you start with little to no memory of what has happened to you.

However out of both I have to say that the less advterised one Second Sight is by far the better.

The gameplay is addictive, in which you will want to learn more new abilities and master them, rather than using guns and other weapons like other games.

With a storyline that can keep you hooked and a good twist in it, this is a truly enjoyable game.

However the one downside is that it is quite easy to beat, but you can always go back to improve how well you did on a level.

All in all a totally enjoyable game

5.0 out of 5 stars Best game I have ever played.... oh yes!!!!!!!, 7 Jul 2005
By A Customer
What a game, I spotted this for cheap thought it looked interesting. It sat on my shelf for months waiting for me to get round to playing and when I did boy was I sorry I had left it so long.

The game is instantly playable, with great controls you can just pick up and play without having to think to much about it. The storyline is interesting. you can sneak about or just go around shooting everyone in the head and you also have telekinetic powers, including possession!!! it's brillant!

One complaint, it was slightly to easy to complete I think I managed it in about 36hours but it stores all your statistics so I went around again trying to increase my stealth score! no more shooting people in the head.... Also some of the voiceovers become a little tedious and tell you a bit too many hints but not everyone is perfect. This is one of top 5 games I have played. In fact I wish I had never played it so that I still had the joy to come.
