Second Sight, made by world famous british gaming company CODEMASTERS, stood up against psi-ops, kicked in the nuts, tore off the protagonists of psi ops' gelled hair beat him to death with it. Then stole all of his cash, shooting mechanics, good gameplay, and storyline that makes sense. Lots of on screen enemies, creepy ring-inspired levels (the asylum....ooh) and the perfect mix of action and stealth and drama and sci-fi. Great graphics and shooting mechanics, psi abilities are cool, it's all good. FPS/third person shooter (tps).
You wake up in a hospital bed in arizona. Your body has been completely sliced and diced by what looks like those japanese chefs that cook in those really cool open restaurants right in front of you, and then duct-taped back together by chimps with downs syndrome. Or maybe it was done by DEM MINORITAHS THEY TOOK YIR JAWBS because you're an Arizona KKK member. Skinhead. So, you wake up bald and not knowing wtf has just happened, and soon figure out that you have psychic powers. CHARM (put thoughts into peoples' heads so that they can't see you, but cameras can. You're invisible), Telekinesis (throwing cars and people and stuff), mind control, projecting your soul out of your body, psi balls, regeneration, etc. You constantly have flashbacks to fighting against the Red Army in russia, where you and an elite team of american special forces were trying to find out about russian psychic army experiments. After playing through a couple of levels and kicking the russkies in the balls, right in the testes, the source of their communist power, I am currently escaping from the Asylum level. Turns out that you guys were in russia years ago, and the girl you loved, a member of your special forces team, was in a creepy haunted insane asylum. Inside that asylum, it was like Bad Boys 2 + The Ring movies + The Grudge + Splinter Cell. Awesome.
