The Saboteur™

This game needs a remake fast!

Ok - sneaking and parkour, cars and tanks, guns and dynamite, Nazi's to shoot, Paris in the forties, v-boobs, racing and Zeppelins .. mini games and achievements ... omg what more can you ask for in one game! Severely over-looked classic. And still plays and looks pretty good An issue with the XBOX pad means you have to wait to turn switch it on until you eventually get full control of Sean (main character).. but then it works fine ... you can check to see if it's worked if the Camera DOESNT turn with the triggers L2 & R2 And the graphics settings don't auto-detect (run VideoSettings.exe from the folder and max everything) But I'm thoroughly enjoying my fourth replay <3 GREAT GAME RIP Pandemic and FU EA

I could write at length about this, it's hard to summarise how flawed this potentially exciting title is. Yes you can roam, climb, and fight. However, while the world is populated by small Nazi checkpoints, trucks, and towers you can blow up these will become INCREDIBLY tedious. All it involves is you walking up to it and laying dynamite which quickly loses its charm. You will receive 'contraband' (currency) to buy weapons (you won't bother, seeing as you can pick them up off enemies- except the silenced pistol) and ammo (you get enough contraband from missions for this). There are so many of the damn things you will feel like you aren't making any difference; so you'll quickly tire of them and actually want to do missions. Climbing is a process of MASHING spacebar to jump up from ledge to ledge. You will rarely need to use the climbing function except to escape from Nazis after a mission to hide on a spot in the roof. In fact, later on this will be your only need to go on the roof as otherwise you will be unable to escape the Nazis. Despite being a resistance fighter, you will repeatedly run over (while being chased, so many people!), fuck over, and otherwise harm the French citizens. The game requires you to have a car, and you will often just jack these from poor French people. Oh well, I guess we're fighting the good fight? There's no consequences for any of this. The script, the setting, all seems like a serious story that just can't help but giggle at itself. Immersion breaking. Travelling to missions (seeing as you can't be bothered with blowing up trucks anymore) is SO LONG. There's no cool music on the way, nothing to enjoy. You will spend an enormous chunk of your time doing this. Many missions are often SHORTER than the travel time to go to the next mission. The missions are usually boiled down to "shoot the Nazi", and your best bet is the story missions. But what's the point? It's the same thing again and again. Skip this title!

Blowing things up is fun and the gunplay has a nice retro-vibe to it but the story is dull, the voiceacting is terrible and there are som bugs. Can be worth playing through though - it's basically GTA in WW2-enviroment with a lot of climbing and some sneak'em up.

Totally 5 out of 5. Climate, story, graphics, gameplay, everything is perfect. I would say that this is not only mix of GTA and AC but also a Wolfenstein with this little Nazi's science background! Truly amazing experience playing this game. I recomend all of you to play if you do not have a chance to do that. Of course it's not that there are no bug or something. Of course there are, this is an sandbox game. Only one thing in my opinion which could be changed in this game is driving model. It's really not perfect and a way behind GTA. Anything else? Just amazing.
