It's kind of sad that one of the greatest video game series is on hold for now.
Conspiracy theories, multiple ways of solving a mission, game lore hidden in computer inboxes...
Are there any (pre-2010) games that gave you the same feeling or do a similar thing?

It reviewed badly, but there's actually a gem of a game hiding in there. A lot of the gameplay feels clunky, but the RPG aspects are really well done (it's Obsidian, they're kind of good at that). It's a spy game that lets you decide whether you're James Bond, Jason Bourne, or Jack Bauer, and really respects those choices in the way the story plays out.

A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.
