Spycraft: The Great Game	Activision	1996	As a new CIA operative, you've been called to Washington. Apparently a Russian candidate for president was assassinated (read: shot) while giving a public speech. Can you uncover a conspiracy that reaches the highest level of government (both US and Russia)? Spycraft is an adventure game with simulation elements that involves quite a bit of puzzle-solving. With input from ex-head of KGB and ex-head of CIA, the scenario is frighteningly authentic. You choose your actions from what is available on screen. You will need to collate large amount of information, and pick out certain patterns that will lead you to what you need. You are helped along by your trusty PDA which highlights the areas to be investigated (i.e. puzzles to be solved) and keeps track of relevant facts.*** [84]
Wing Commander Secret Ops	Origin Systems	1998	The 6th part of the famous "Wing Commander" series was free for download.
Commandos: Behind Enemy Lines	Eidos Interactive;Sold Out Sales & Marketing (Pyro Studios)	1998	Squad-based WW2 combat game which heavily emphasised strategy over charge in. Renowned for its difficulty, the approach was refreshing, and the choice of 2D was not inappropriate. Never a bestseller, however. [anonymous] Two million copies isn't a bestseller? [Thenend]
Thief: The Dark Project	Eidos (Looking Glass Studios)	1998	[b]Working title: The Dark Project Original project title: Dark Camelot[/b]*[b]sentient artefact[/b] - The Eye [b]gameplayinn[/b] - first person stealth; possibly started the whole stealth game rage.*To call Thief a first-person shooter is to strip away what the game brought to the gaming scene. Set in a magical medieval city, the player is a thief, with the ability to become almost invisible in shadows. And here is where 'first-person sneaker' became it's own genre. Emphasizing strategy and stealth over raw killing ability, the game brought a new idea to first-person shooters. Sure, the sword and bow are necessary, but the blackjack, and avoiding combat, are even more effective. Well designed cut scenes, incredible graphics, unmatchable atmosphere, etc etc all meant that Thief was a superb game.
Thief Gold	Eidos (Looking Glass Studios)	1999	Stalk your prey on the quest for stolen goods with your blackjack, sword, and an assortment of unique arrows. Steal for money and uncover the hidden agendas of your allies and enemies as you play through an unravelling story of deception and revenge. Survive in a world where shadows are your only ally, trust is not an option, and confrontation results in death! Key Features: * Pioneering stealth based gameplay brings a new dimension to first person action. * Thief™ Gold includes Thief™ The Dark Project (12 huge missions with multiple environments) and the Gold update (3 new campaign missions which deepen the plot and add five new types of enemies) * Advanced enemies can see, hear, speak, and sound alarms. * Your arsenal includes: blackjack, sword, fire arrows, water arrows, rope arrows and more
Thief II: The Metal Age	Eidos (Looking Glass Studios)	2000	This was the most disappointing part of the Thief trilogy for me. The emphasis on steampunk-ish environment and all those steamgolems took the feel of it away. Still, it has the same playability as the other Thief games except for the theme change so gameplay wise it has the same level of excellence with some minor improvement.***A sequel to Thief: The Dark Project. Without introducing any drastic advances in terms of gameplay, there were many small improvements, both graphically and in terms of level design, etc. Another fantastic offering.

Hitman: Codename 47	Eidos (Io Interactive)	2000
Mafia	Gathering of Developers;Take 2 Interactive (Illusion Softworks)	2002	This third-person 3-D action game takes place in a fictional city named Lost Heaven - a cross between New York and Chicago - and is about the daily life of a gangster from the '30s. More than 60 vehicles are available to drive through the 12 miles of environment; stop your car and get out whenever and wherever your want. Use weapons such as a Tommy gun, a Smith & Wesson model 27 Magnum, a pump-action shotgun, a baseball bat, or Molotov cocktails.***Mafia brings the 1930's underworld to life in this 3rd person 3D action game. Rise from the lowly but well-dressed footsoldier to the envied and feared Made Man in an era of big bands, zoot suits and Model T's. Take on the role of a hitman, enforcer, getaway driver and more in your struggle for respect, money and power within the Salieri Family.
Hitman 2: Silent Assassin	Eidos (IO Interactive)	2002	What does Hitman have to do in order to get a little peace and quiet? Apparently checking into a monastery wasn¿t quite enough, as he¿s been lured out by a very desirable offer. It seems that a Russian crime boss has fooled our hero into a trap, however, and now it¿s up to you to steer Hitman out of danger. Choose whether you want to play from a first or third-person perspective and try to shoot your way through each massive, open-ended level. Amazing graphics and storytelling grace this classic sequel.

Hitman: Contracts	Eidos Interactive (IO Interactive)	2004	Explore the dark psychology of killing for a living as you delve into the mind of the most ruthless & efficient contract killer. Hitman: Contracts™ delivers more action-packed and suspenseful missions with a greater variety of ways to make the perfect hit and an increased arsenal of firearms and close-combat weapons at your disposal.

Able to sneak past any guard, pick any lock, and break into the most ingeniously secured residences. Garrett steals from the wealthy and gives to himself, making his living in the dark and foreboding City. Here crime and corruption are commonplace, wealthy nobles prey on the poor and each other, and magic and machinery coexist uneasily. World weary and cynical, Garrett wants nothing more than to be left alone to ply his trade. But things never work out that way. * Cutting-edge Action Stealth Gameplay - Hide in the shadows, sneak past the guards, or ambush them from the darkness! * Huge Arsenal of Thieves' Tools - Including lock picks, a blackjack, arrows, wall climbing gloves, oil flasks, flash bombs, and a dagger. * An Entire City to Explore - Break into any building, mug nobles on the streets, spend your loot, and earn a reputation.

The Ship	Outerlight;Blazing Griffin (Outerlight)	2006	Un juego a medio camino entre una aventura gráfica, un multijugador de acción competitiva y un juego de sigilo (aunque sería más apropiada la palabra discrección), donde todos los jugadores se encuentran en un ciclo donde tienen que acabar con 1 pasajero concreto y a su vez son buscados por otro en particular. Además lo de cubrir las necesidades (al más puro estilo Sims) y el arma de doble filo que suponen (ponen a tu objetivo en situaciones vulnerables pero también pueden suponer tu final) lo convierten en una experiencia única. 7 de 10*For PC gamers who enjoy multiplayer games with a bit of intelligence, intrigue and ingenuity, The Ship is a murder mystery alternative to traditional FPS multiplayer games. Each player is given a Quarry to kill - and must evade their own Hunter in the process, all set on board a series of 1920s art deco cruise ships. The Ship is owned by the mysterious Mr X and as one of many 'lucky' recipients of a free ticket you arrive on board The Ship to find there's a catch to your luxury cruise. You are coerced into a brutal Hunt to indulge Mr. X's fantasies, under threat of death for not only yourself, but also your family. Your only chance to save yourself and your family is to play the Hunt and win. Combining stealthy multiplayer action and a needs system, The Ship is a truly unique gaming experience. This package includes a tutorial, The Ship Single Player, which introduces you to some gameplay mechanics and storyline, and The Ship Multiplayer where you can hunt and be hunted by other players. [Steam Store]*Note that the multiplayer and singleplayer parts of this game were sold separately originally, though there are bundles that sell them together.

Trilby: The Art of Theft	Fully Ramblomatic	2007

Assassin's Creed	Ubisoft Entertainment (Ubisoft Montreal)	2008	El comienzo estelar de la saga, a pesar de ser mucho más lineal y corto que sus predecesores (y unas misiones secundarias enormemente repetitivas), se hecha de menos no ser una arsenal andante que puede con toda la guardia de la ciudad: mucho más sigilo y huida y menos acción. Especialmente reseñable era la posibilidad de finalizar un asesinato siguiendo el diario de Altair, convirtiendo el encargo en un auténtico reto, además de la claustrofóbica situación de Desmond y la intriga que rodea todo el juego. Como reprochable, la enorme letalidad del agua, aunque también es cierto que es de gran ayuda contra los templarios. 8 de 10*2008-04-09 as boxed 2008-04-09 on Steam (eng,fre,ita,ger,spa)[b]save points[/b] - there's only one save per profile, so make sure you back it up occasionally. Nothing worse than playing almost through the game and the save getting corrupted for whatever reason (such as BSOD). The saves are stored in `[code]%APPDATA%/Ubisoft/Assassin's Creed/Saved Games/[/code]´.Latest version: 1.02 (as of 2008-05-14)The story starts with Desmond Miles being kidnapped in 2012 by Abstergo Industries and put into the Animus machine, a device capable of drawing out genetic memories and allowing the user to re-live their ancestors' lives. For Desmond, this is the life of Altaïr Ibn La-Ahad (الطائر), an assassin who lived during the Third Crusade in 1191. Although the story skips the kidnapping and starts with Desmond jagged into the Animus and experiencing some synchronization issues with it. The game is difficult to categorize and abundantly lampshaded by the fact that most of the game takes place inside the Animus which has been created to produce a video game like experience, so effectively you're playing a video game inside a video game. And the experience produced by the Animus is an abstraction of sorts with various alterations that make it easier for the user to operate it, such as translating all languages to plain English and so forth. So any inconsistencies with reality are due to that, and since memories aren't exactly logical 1 to 1 copies of reality, much illogical instances can occur, some of which can be interpreted to mean some [url=http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/JustBugsMe/Ptitlel59ywfenym8d?from=JustBugsMe.AssassinsCreed]very strange things[/url]. Things you may need to replay the whole game for:[spoiler]In memory block 4, you have a chance to pickpocket Vidic to get his security pen. This opportunity does not represent itself and replaying the memory block later does not roll back time in the "real world". After the credits you gain access to the conference room where you need Vidic's pen to access a computer, but there's nothing else after that besides your ability to replay the memory blocks and aim for 100% completion (collecting all the flags, killing the templars, scouting, and doing all the side tasks).[/spoiler]*[b]Minimum:[/b] Windows XP or Vista * 2.6 GHz dual-core Pentium D or Athlon 64 X2 3800+ CPU * 1 GB RAM (2 GB for Vista) * 256 MB VRAM * Radeon X1600 or GeForce 6800 GPU * 8 GB HD space [b]Recommended:[/b] * Core 2 Duo 2.2 GHz or Athlon 64 X2 4400+ CPU * 5.1 capable soundcard***The PC version has 4 new missions compared to the original console version.

Death to Spies: Moment of Truth	1C Company;Aspyr Media (Haggard Games)	2009
Assassin's Creed II	Ubisoft (Ubisoft Montreal)	2010	Con una gran variedad de misiones secundarias y mucha más exploración, parece mejor que el primer juego. Sin embargo, un Ezio con demasiados cachivaches (o demasiada munición según se mire) y con habilidades de combate demasiado poderosas (como poder bloquear con la hoja oculta) hacen que las misiones se tornen muy asequibles. Además el sigilo no prima tanto como en el primer juego. 7 de 10*Deluxe Edition adds 3 maps: Palazzo Medici, Santa Maria Dei Frari, and the Arsenal Shipyard. Ad speech mentions secret treasures and nothing else. Unknown if this means simply florins or actual equipment.Undefined game-play elements: blending in with the crowd, hiring prostitutes (or others?) to serve as cover (controllable crowd) or to distract those who'd wish you harm.**Continues Desmond Miles' story right where it ended in the first game, even if Altair is no longer his alter ego inside the Animus.

Shadow Harvest: Phantom Ops	Viva Media (Black Lion Studios)	2011	BEHIND EVERY WAR IS A TRUTH YOU WERE NEVER MEANT TO KNOW ... The year is 2025 and the world is shaken by numerous conflicts over the control of dwindling natural resources. The hunger of rival warlords and dictators of mainly underdeveloped countries for advanced and highly effective weapon systems appears insatiable and the profits of the arms industry have reached new heights. As highly advanced weapon systems, made in the USA, are sighted on various battlegrounds in Third World countries, the US government decides to send in an ISA agent, Cpt. Myra Lee, to find out how political enemies are acquiring arms that are under strict embargo. Myra is sent to Mogadishu, where American made weapons have allegedly been employed in combat by Somali military forces against rebel units. In Somalia, Myra meets Cpt. Aron Alvarez, a hard-boiled close combat specialist of US Army's 1st SFOD-Delta, whose squadron is assigned to assassinate Somalia’s dictator. Myra and Aron begin working together only to discover that that the seriousness of the whole affair reaches much deeper than just the illegal trade of US weapon systems. A special unit under the codename SHADOW HARVEST is formed within the ISA to reveal the truth. Cpt. Myra Lee and Cpt. Aron Alvarez are made partners in the operational core of this special unit and their investigations lead them to various places all over the world. * Based on the operations of the Intelligence Support Activity (ISA), with missions ranging from gathering critical intelligence data to covert direct action operations.
