LET'S PLAY: Second Sight
Wiki theftery:
Second Sight is an action-adventure video game developed by Free Radical Design and published by Codemasters for Nintendo GameCube, Xbox, PlayStation 2 and Microsoft Windows. It was released on September 21, 2004.
The storyline follows MIT parapsychology researcher John Vattic and his attempts to recover his memory as well as the secrets behind his new powers of telekinesis, mind projection, healing, and possession.
This game came out around the same time as Psi-Ops did, this is by far the better game, there's no Pyrokenesis, but there is a fantastic Sniping system/aiming system, a much better execution and has aged much better.
Has a lot in common graphically with Timesplitters seeing as it's made by the same guys.
This is definately a favorite in my collection and i think a bit of an underappreciated gem and for only £5 on Steam easily grabbed, in fact buy it for a friend aswell or some random fucker you know from the internet!
Plot.
As mentioned above, the game follows John Vattic, he wakes up in a medical facility with no memories, covered in bandages and with some new mental toys to mess around with. The plot is told through a series of playable flashbacks, which tell how he got to where he is at the beginning of the game, but also playing through the present to find out why. Vattic has an arsenal of powers, that get stronger as the game goes on, he can also shoot stuff, but we're all aware how guns work.
Powers:
Telekenisis
Pick shit up and move it with your mind.
Healing
Get rid of that nasty bullet wound
Psi-Blast
Throw some Psychic energy at that butthead
Charm
Invisibility, sorta
Projection
Astrally Project your ass around the joint
Possession
Steal bitches bodies and lark around in them, one of the best parts.
Videos:
Isolation + Preperation.
Experimentation:
Fieldwork
Escape
Madness

Another Ginger LP.
The Hitman LP is the best LP past, present and future, in all discovered and undiscovered dimensions.
Okay thanks guys.
Psi-Ops.
Though I will grant you that Aura Beasts can die in a fire. A psychically-enhanced fire.

Choose a host, not yet!, and i'll stick with it for the duration of this LP, unless I overrule you in which case, im preemptively telling you to shut up. SHUT UP!
Wait until you've seen the videos from each though.
You lose the training mission though...
Haha, I'm pretty sure we don't have any such department. Unless it's one of the secret ones no one knows about in the underground tunnels.
Those tunnels go on forever.
On-topic:
I've tried playing this game so many times due to the good things I've heard about it. But I've never got past the first level exactly for the reasons of the controls. I'll be sure to watch through this LP.
Which is the better of the two: Second Sight or Psi-Ops? I haven't tried the latter but also heard good things.
Ultimately, you should be able to find both for really cheap, and they're both worth it. Plus, if you don't mind ads:
it is completely incomprehensible as to what your objectives should be. I spent days wandering around, trying to go up lifts, mug every operative, etc. Pissed me off so much I had to use Gamefaqs to find out what I had to do. I put the game down again when I got stuck trying to get into a secret bunker and the only interactible item (that I could see) didn't interact with me. I should gamefaq again because the story is sooo good I want to know how it ends/begins.
I made a game, it has penguins in it. It's pay what you like on Gumroad.
Currently Ebaying Nothing at all but I might do in the future.
Vimeo screwed the video and im not waiting 5 hours to find that out everytime i upload.
Megavideo is maze like i can't even find the upload, if it exists.
Viddler won't let me log in.
Youtube works! i'll use it!
Second Sight is the better game and you CAN shoot people whilst using powers.
Made me put it on my (just signed up!) Gamefly queue to give it a try sometime. Or I might just buy it if I happen to be in Gamestop and see it used. Looks very cool.
In the meantime, however, I'll definately keep watching.
Why wasn't I informed?
Much better than the tubes filled with you.

You shut up.

Viddler link'll go up when it's converted.
DailyMotion is better than YouTube imo. 20 minutes per video, and similar High Quality option. Plus they don't have that copyrighted music checker bullshit.
"I can control time!"
viddler video up.
I figure it would make for a bad LP to have 30 minutes of you and I slinging insults back and forth over steam chat
