"Syndicate reminds you that with a bit of creative effort, shooters don't have to play by Modern Warfare rules to be truly modern." - Gamespot.com
2069 - no longer governed by politicians, the developed world is divided up into regions controlled by mega-corporations known as syndicates. These syndicates have revolutionized how the consumer interacts with the digital world. No longer does the consumer require a device to access the world’s data and control their technology, they can do this at the blink of an eye via neural chip implant.
Civilians flocked to be “chip’d” and enjoy all that their selected syndicate has to offer; housing, medical, banking, insurance, education, entertainment and jobs. One complete package. One complete lifestyle. In return, the syndicates gained unprecedented insights, and control, over the individual and their behaviour. With little governmental oversight, business has become war. The syndicates will stop at nothing for ultimate market dominance.
At the front line of this war are the agents, the syndicate’s bio-engineered and chip-augmented enforcers. They can breach anything in the wired dataverse including their enemies, their weapons and the environment that surrounds them, making them the most efficient and deadly technological weapons in the world. Take on the role of miles kilo, eurocorp’s latest prototype agent, and embark on a brutal action adventure of corruption and revenge.

A spectacular Sci-Fi shooter
acloggedtoaster | April 30, 2013 | See all acloggedtoaster's reviews »If you are looking for a great Sci-Fi first person shooter, look no further! Syndicate offers crisp visuals, fluid, innovative game play mechanics, and a decent story. The game is very well optimized for PC, and looks stunning and runs well on mid rage systems. The The gun play is fast and, as is expected by any top notch FPS, and the introduction of "breach" mechanics also adds a new twist to familiar game play. The sound is also exceptional, with sharp audio effects and gunshots. enemies and bosses are varied and enjoyable to fight. A great game!

Extremely fun co-op mode
chestburster | April 27, 2013 | See all chestburster's reviews »The singleplayer is meh. But the co-op mode is excellent. It is comparable to the Spec Ops mode of Modern Warfare 2 and 3, but with customizable weapon loadouts, special abilities and boss fights. The co-op maps get rid of the uninteresting storylines and basically throw at you huge number of enemies and some interesting boss enemies. You have to fight them with extremely satisfying sci-fi weapons such miniguns, electric arc throwers, flamethrowers, shoulder-mounted lasers, auto-tracking grenade launchers, etc., all customizable and able to be leveled up.
