Psi-Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy (2004)
Genres:Shooter
Themes:Action, Science fiction
Game modes:Single player, Co-operative, Multiplayer
Story:Psi-Ops is an action game with a twist: no longer do you have to rely solely on big weapons and explosions to progress through it - you also have the aid of psychic powers to take down army after army of enemy soldiers.
In the game you take the role of Nick Scryer, a secret agent who had his face reconstructed and mind wiped clean in order to infiltrate a growing psychic organization calling itself The Movement. Nick, however, is captured, but manages to free himself and continue his mission to stop The Movement, regaining his psychic abilities along the way.
The game mixes regular weapons with the weapons of the mind. You'll have access to a series of mind powers, such as Telekinesis (the ability to fling object and soldiers around), Pyrokineses (the ability to set things on fire), Mind Drain (for draining Psi power out of foes' minds) and Remote Viewing (leaving your body behind and exploring the level).Show more

The original PC release has an issue with DRM starforce which causes it to boot on some modern PCs, but not others. Also if this did work, the FMVs are broken on newer PCs as well. This game needs a new modern audience. It shouldn't be left in obscurity. It's considered a hidden gem for 6th gen consoles. This game needs to be brought back into the light.
This game was a diamond in the rough, never given a fair shake against some other AAA titles of it's time. It had a cheesy, yet interesting enough story, and a physics engine that made the combat and platforming feel great all the way through. Its a shame it never got a sequel to tie up the cliffhanger this game ended on. Would love to see a GOG release fixing many of the problems that currently make this game so unenjoyable on pc!
No other game really plays with super powers quite like this one did. Geist on the Gamecube tried and it didn't come even close.
Nothing will ever beat that feeling of picking up a dude with TK and using him as a shield then throwing him to his friends. Fun times.
One of the first games I remember being able to play with ragdoll physics, I used to spend hours mucking around in the training simulator stacking explosive barrels and playing with the telekinesis!
This game is unbelievably fun, and has been on my top 5 all-time for a long time. An action game centred purely on the joy of chaos. You are a soldier with psychic abilities, in a fairly run-of-the-mill story, but when you get your hands on the controller, you realise how little that matters.
Where other games that attempted to introduce 'powers' tend to have you switch or select, this one made real effort to ensure all of your abilities were on separate buttons, to ensure you can use them in combination to hilarious effect. Sure, you will have great fun picking up boxes or barrels or soldiers and whomping them against walls and ceilings, better still picking them up, setting them on fire, THEN throwing them like a screaming molotov. Or better yet, pick someone up, shoot them a bit, then fling them up into the sky like a haemorraging firework. This game is just pure joy, and I pray for the day I can play it again easily.
Still unmatched as the game with the best telekinesis powers ever. Plus a great story, great characters and levels. Don't take my word for it though, go play it now that is abandonware then buy it if it eventually releases here so we finally get a sequel, maybe, hopefully
Used to love this game when I was a kid, so many memories of floating on a cube!
Honestly the mechanics were so ahead of its time and I still haven't found a game that scratches the itch this one left.
NEEDS A SEQUEL/REMAKE
This game is incredible in terms of gameplay and ability. It's crazy that it has not received a remaster or anything. It would be awesome to see the game receive support and appear on GOG!
Resident Evil: The Umbrella ChroniclesResident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles is the first natively developed for the Wii console. Unlike the other games focused on free exploration, this title is an on-rails shooting game with fixed movement and perspectives. While playing, the camera floats to different areas and players shoot enemies on the screen, picking up ammo, weapons and health kits in the progress. In some situations, the controller can also be used as a melee weapon or in timed sequences. Some levels feature multiple paths and there are regular checkpoints. At the end of a level, the player's performance is awarded by stars, which can be exchanged for weapon upgrades. The game supports the Wii Zapper and features cooperative gameplay for up to two players.Action Horror
