Ooooooh, this looks very, very nice.

Using the TimeSplitters engine with some original gameplay, it could be a great little title, luckily Free Radical can get the 1-player to 'work', too. All I hope is it isn't what Brute Force is to Halo, a rubbish, third person copy.

Plus, it's coming to the Cube. Whooooo!

I think the focus will be more on moving objects with your thought rather than possession and the like. Oh, and it'll be a TPS/Stealth title, too, so not much chance of it being similar.

Quote from GamesPress: "Combining an immersive thriller storyline with paranormal psychic abilities, stealthy exploration and intense shooter action "Second Sight" redefines the standards for action adventure narrative and gameplay"

The psychic abilities sound promising, but from that it seems like an MGS kind of game, with added Free Radical flair. Hopefulyl it'll turn out with play a little more arcadey than it's described, but I suppose we'll have to wait and see.

Looks an ex-Rare classic, to me.

Is it a Brute Force style, third person co-operative "op's" game?


That sounds promising.
TS2 had it all, only the FPS genre was getting a bit tired in our household by then.

A twist could bring a whole new level to it all.

Free Radical are a fantastic developer... loyal to all platforms... the only reason Timesplitters was PS2 exclusive was because the other 2 weren't ready yet.

They are now 2 teams, headed by Goldeneye designer David Doak and develop superb games... as great as Halo, Doom, Half Life are... they don't have the weird factor of Timesplitters. Not that I'm saying Timesplitters is better.

I love Free Radical... one of the best UK developers around.

I hope it's gameplay is better than TSP2 story mode.

Does Second Sight have a multi-player?
