This game was way ahead of it’s time and deserves to be remembered. Imagine a game on the original Xbox accidentally made for VR. The game has many flaws, and won’t be for everyone, but the people who finish it will find themselves with a truly rewarding experience.
Not just for having beaten a difficult game, but also for finishing a truly interesting and entertaining story.
I love this game even if most people haven’t heard of it.
Breakdown is not just another FPS; it’s a groundbreaking masterpiece, a game that pushed the boundaries of its time. Its stunning visuals and deep environmental interaction make it stand out, but what truly makes it an unforgettable experience is its unique and gripping way of storytelling and character development.
The game dares to break the mold with a hybrid combat system that blends fast-paced shooting action with intense hand-to-hand combat, creating an electrifying gameplay experience. Adding to this is a captivating storyline: a global crisis, an alien invasion, and a brave yet mysterious ally. All of this fully immerses you in the role of a true hero destined to save humanity.
And the climax… simply legendary. A final battle that will blow your mind, with a level of spectacle that few games have ever achieved. Breakdown is not just a video game—it’s an unforgettable experience and one of the most underrated gems in gaming history.
I first found this game on the demo disc for the official Xbox magazine I can not tell you how many times I replayed that demo but when time came for me to give my parents a list of things I would want as a present for my birthday, Breakdown was in the first spot on that list.
While the game has some fairly large flaws it stands out for trying things no other games at the time was trying, and having one of the best plot twists I have seen done to this day. I actually still own my original Xbox and my copy of this game, and every couple of years I will go back to it and play though the game again and I'd love to be able to share that experience with others.
Would love to play this again! super Nostalgic. It was a pretty fun game for the times. I don't think it was a blockbuster but still quite fun and original. at least for me anyways
Well I had my first console a Xbox one x fat and I didn't know what to play I didn't have big Money or a card for anything digital so I'd go to a second hand market and get old games for cheap when buying Xbox original game's I'd just check the compatibility list I saw this is supported and the cover looked interesting mysterious I bought it for 8$ and when I boot it up at home I was lost in it the atmosphere the mystery the storyline the unbelievable combination of moves I was studying for hours the mysterious hallucinations and the new odd enemies it was really good so I started to wonder why nobody knows about it I only found 5-8 small youTube videos saying it's good a hidden gem when moving countries I had to sell my Xbox couldn't take the huge old setup with me therefore I didn't finish the game 6 hour's in it really miss it but having little money I can't afford risking buying a old Xbox and a new one is expensive in our house there's a old laptop and maybe I'll Build a cheap PC so if gog ads this game for 5-8$ I'd gladly buy it under a sale to play at home it's not demanding and is amazing I wanna finish it I wonder what happens next in the game after the 6 hours I played I miss it,it really stuck to my mind,I'm surprised two more people remember it and we met here with idea of revisiting it through gog.
Breakdown was such a wondrous experience for me growing up. I had never played a FPS that played and acted like this. Melee combat as a FPS focus? Unheard of! The story was so incredible and full of twists and turns that I was hooked, playing all the way through to the end. I really wish this game had gotten noticed and love, because I always hope for a sequel or remake of it. It deserves to be seen and played by more people. The fact there are other people posting their memories of the game makes my heart so much lighter, as I felt like I was the only person to ever play this game. Happy to be wrong.
Breakdown had the single best 'superhero' moments in any form of media, ever. An ambitious sim/shooter/brawler, Breakdown never quite got all it's elements to work perfectly together. Despite this Breakdown had some of the greatest moments in gaming, a re-release (especially if it contained some quality-of-life improvements) would be amazing.
Absolutely amazing and brutally difficult first-person brawler than unfortunately never got the sequel it deserved. Fell in love with it from the moment I played the demo from the OXM back in the day.
The Operative: No One Lives ForeverNo One Lives Forever is to be a fast-paced, story-driven first-person shooter that delivers over-the-top action, outrageous villains, and wry humor in the tradition of the great 1960's Bond films. You play Cate Archer an undercover operative for MI-Zero. Your mission is to arrange for the defection of a prominent East German biophysicist that goes by the name of Otto Dentz. However things go wrong when a terrorist group known as the HARM abducts Dentz during a flight to England.
Assume the role of Cate Archer, an operative working for UNITY, a secret organization fighting to free the world from the clutches of H.A.R.M.. From tense subterfuge to in-your-face combat, No One Lives Forever ups the ante with 1960's-influenced spy action, vivid international locates, and deadly arch villains.Top Trending Action Comedy Stealth
Pokémon FireRedPokémon FireRed Version and Pokémon LeafGreen Version are a pair of core series Generation III games that are set in the Kanto region.
