The Tragedy of the Saboteur 

Rented this game shortly after its release from GameFly. I was in the Navy at the time. Barracks life! I don't remember beating the game, but getting really close. I had a good time with it. I miss 'different' games like this. Games have lost alot of their identity. There used to be something that made most games what they were. They usually had a specific 'gimmick' Now everything is mostly copy/paste it seems. Good game. It's worth your time.

We get up to a mild bit of sabotage in this department of the known universe.

if only the saboteur was on modern consoles

Rented, then bought, this here game. Blowing stuff up, then making Sean walk away, facing the camera, and having him light up a cig. Action hero moment right there. XD

Fizhy unlocked a childhood memory here. The saboteur was one of the first games I ever played. Had countless hours on it as a kid. Shame we'll never see a sequel.

This is one of my favorite open world games from that era. So unique. It's heavily underrated that's for sure!

This game took a new perspective of WW2 by making you just a normal civilian, rebelling against Nazi controlled France. It was such a great game. Wish it would be remastered or just rereleased for consoles

I’ve been mentioning this game to friends for years trying to meet someone who remembered it, I love it

Underrated game

I just finished the game a couple of weeks ago, was probably one of the best games ive played so far, the story, the gameplay, the map, everything just felt so good. I also havent encountered any bugs or so apart from a random german truck launching itself into the stratosphere

It is good to see people giving recognition to The Saboteur. IMO a very underrated game. Watching this video, does bring back good memories

I only discovered this game by finding some gameplay of it on RU-vid a few years ago. I'm surprised I never knew it existed back in the day, especially since I was playing lots of forgotten GTA clones at the time, like the Godfather games and Scarface: The World is Yours.

It's always bugged me that this game does not have a larger modding community.

Ah I remember buying this game from my local pawn shop for 3 dollars back in 2017. I had just moved out and hadn't set up internet in my apartment yet, so story missions were my go to. I loved it. Although it's a little clunky, but it was made with love, just like this video! Thank you Fizhy! ❤

I never understood why Pandemic Studios dissolved. They made a lot great games back in the 2000s. Destroy All Humans 1 & 2, Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction, Star Wars frickin Battlefront 1 & 2, Saboteur. Whatever happened was not due to their lack of trying or output.

This was a Great Game ahead of its time while going hard into the times of action adventure games. Just a fun off beat game that deserved more eyes on it!

This is, by far, one of my favorite games I played when I had the PS3. I didn't think much of it when I bought it. It was cheap and the setting was in World War II Paris. The art style looked good too so I took a chance on it. And I'm glad I did. I loved this game so much I let a friend borrow it after I finished the story. The atmosphere just brings you closer and makes you really feel you're part of the world that Sean's in. The sound design is good and the music really sets the tone. I do like the black and white feel like you're in a film noir type environment and once liberated you can feel life once again come back to that district/area. The controls at times are a little wonky but not horrible, it was easy to control nonetheless. I even like the small details they did such as if you go into the settings you have the option to remove the profanity and Sean replies to this and turning it off he does the same. It's a shame this game didn't get the recognition it deserves nor a sequel. It kind became like LA Noire with Team Bondi.

The music alone is worth a playthrough :)

Great video. I'm sold, I have to try this game.

I love how this games gives you guns that will not be invented for years and the Germans invade France in 1940 ignoring Poland existence completely

This is one of my favourite games - I would still play it if it was backwards compatible. I remember finishing it and then went on to do all the mini missions on the countryside.

I didn’t realise this was a new video! Either way it’s great timing as I just started playing the game again yesterday hahaha.

I liked this game a lot aside from one particularly annoying mission. Aside from that hiccup, it felt like what a closer to modern day assassin's creed could have beenlike.

I jist finished this game fir the first time a week ago or so..... was very very pleasantly surprised. Super hard game at times tho.

9 year old me vibed with this game so much

I had this game and it was soooo underrated

Thanks so much! This game is criminally underrated!❤

an Actual quick retrospective?! nice

Hello fizhy, thanks for this. I always thought this game wasn't recognised enough, I was surprised and excited to see you make a video on it. Have you played the prototype series (1&2), a revisit on that would be interesting.

This was one of my favourites back in the day

This was great. I miss it

Goddamn, you ain’t kidding man. Besides that racing mission in the beginning, this game was fire.

My favorite game of my life, and Crysis trilogy but saboteur is special

Man I Wish i had more time playing games ...

one of my favourites

I played the game a lot back in the day

Oh yes. One of the coolest game that remained unfinished. Those who played it know what I'm talking about.

They could really make an AC game like this play halfway decent. The gunplay has to be perfect though.

I’ve told people for years, this game is the unknown best game ever made

I still have my PC copy of it! I've traded in tons of games in my time (when you could still trade in PC games) but I'll never give away my copy of Saboteur. Loved it when 'Feelin' Good' blasted through on the car radio and telling the nazi's they weren't worth a feckin air biscuit. First game I consciously remember beating then immediately played again from the start. Brilliant fun, I wonder if it still runs on Windows 11!

I loved this game!!! I wish i can find my copy to play it again

Ah yes, the naked DLC game

13:00 WAIT WAIT WAIT ARE WE JUST LETTING THAT ONE BY

I love this game. Its amazing.

I never did finish this game. Perhaps I now will.... 🤔

I've never heard of this until now

Looks good to me never heard of this game

If you haven't played it already, Fizhy, a game that I feel would leave you with the exact same feeling you had here is 2009's Brutal Legend. Definitely unique. Understandbale criticisms, but still hiighly underrated. And definitely one that could have been so much more if it had a sequel.

I’ve never in my life seen or heard of this game lol. But it looks interesting.

It's ironic/iconic that The Sabatuer and Inglorious Basterds came out the same year.

Fizhy would love to hear your opinion about the new AC samurai game

havent even watched yet. True title

Should do a video on Velvet Assassin 🤔

For what it's worth, this game can be pretty enjoyable. It's a "GTA clone" in a setting that I absolutely love and am quite frankly surprised has not gotten more attention, and it gives you plenty of crap to sabotage (shocking, I know) while free-roaming with multiple different ways to do it. With that being said, it's hard to ignore its flaws looking back on it years later, chief of which I think is the "wanted" system, because it's incredibly easy to lose the pursuing Nazis. I wanted to be able to steal a motorcycle and have a Steve McQueen, "The Great Escape"-esque chase across the countryside, but unfortunately you can lose the Germans in seconds if you're in a vehicle. Fix that, as well as the vehicle handling/damage and make the radios toggleable, and you have something eons better with a few minor changes. I also wish they had tried a bit harder to make the uniforms and equipment more historically accurate, but I get they were also going for a bit of a super villain/Wolfenstein vibe too. It would have been cool if your actions had consequences too, such as the Nazis rounding up civilians to murder (you'd be able to save them) if you sabotaged too much stuff in a short period of time like what happened in real life.

This game was soooo damn good.

Actually, enjoyed this game on the PS3

Looks like I missed this gem

I will never forget that, when really hungry, Sean could eat a nun's arse through the convent gates... Ah, les good times! And then EA came and it all went tits up!

As a kid my game would crash at the same spot every time gave it like 15 try’s before I gave up

BEEN A WHILE SINCE YOU MADE A VIDEO ABOUT AC INNIT

Or as they say it is a banger

Who has the bigger TARDIS in their satchel - Sean Devlin or Arthur Morgan?

They did use the liiknes of Billy Zane because it looks like him

This game was awesome. I hate that I have to demote myself to my older shittier pc cus it doesn't run on modern pc's

Reminds me of Red Faction.

why did you change your tone in the middle of the video

I never got to play this one.😭

Had he not been Irish he would’ve surly died. The Irish are just built different. 🗿💪🍀

Anyone else got problem to start the game? I got it from Origin but it won’t run

Hey broski

Yoo

really fun game! unfortunately gotta disagree on it being the hardest sequel bait. Prey, the first one on the 360, had the most depressing cliffhanger, bullshit ending! it basically was just a 'to be continued...'. whenever they finally got back to it, they did NOT continue. still mad about that Saboteur just got blown out by Assassin's Creed II. which sucks cause it's a better Assassin's Creed game than ASII, and it has cool race cars that go WAY too fast with boobs!

Good man, Fizhy, another fantastic video. Respect 🙏 Hello from Ireland i loved this game blowing up NAZI🇮🇪 thanks for reacting to this great but forgotten gem of a game

Saboteur took everything Destroy All Humans 1 and 2 had and greatly improved on it especially with the story and gameplay but janky havok vehicles ruin the game and i thought Destroy All Humans 1 and 2 saucer physics were bad

First one
