Ah Kate. The most beautiful woman in the world❤️ (no, no, don’t talk to me about Lara😁). This game is a true homage to the spy films of the 60s. And it’s very funny. It embraces the clichés (in a good way) and does it more than well. A must-have, simply.👍
I want Noe One Lives Forever on GOG because I wanted to play it for years, and I would love to have it easily accessible on PC and keep it playable... Forever.
This game was added as a freebie to my Nvidia graphics card. One of the best freebies ever. Later I got another copy, but didn't buy the GOTY edition sadly, that one is still missing in my collection.
But a friend of mine who actually did buy it, gave me the soundtrack that came with it with tracks inspired by the game, and some written for the game but not used.
I like this part better than the sequel, I like that it's so straight forward, in the second part they exagerated a bit with toys and enemies (clowns? ninjas?). The first sequence where you have to protect some guy on the street was nice, I repeated it until I perfected it. Some of the additional music from the "Lounge" that was added on a separated CD still has it's place on my mp3 player.
This is one of the best games from the late '90s with a Hollywood-style storyline. Many still remember and love it, especially the second part featuring Cate Archer, where the graphics are even better than some modern games! Both game series should be available on GOG!
I love NOLF games, they really capture what I enjoy the most in spy films, the atmosphere and the humor. It does not take itself too serous and yet manages to keep me hooked every time, no matter how many times I played it. I honestly have to actively avoid having it installed because I want to give the rest of my game library (most of which I have not played yet) some love too.
ohh man, one of the greatest games ever made, the sheer amount of variety in locations and gadgets, its incredible. In the mountains, under water, in space, in the jungle, in the air, its amazing. So many amazing set pieces. You can go guns blazing or stealthy and captures that 60s vibe perfectly. Doing a game like this these days would be a monumental undertaking. The writing is also hilarious with amazing characters. Kate Archer is a true femme fatale. I would absolutely love to have it in my library.
This game is very well written, it is a full game of spying and action (well maybe more action, but anyhow). The set is in the 60s-70s and it is not a serious theme, more something like Austin Powers. A remake could be great also.
I think the developer has given up. NOLF2 is also a great game and both should live forever.
I wish I could play this game in multiplayer again - the single player was fun enough. The falling out of the airplane, diving, German opera singer! Monolith were such great storytellers! But to play the MP at a LAN with all those wonky gadgets - chefskiss
I only played the demo of this and I really went through the tutorial several times just because I really enjoyed it. Please GOG, it would be so awesome to allow us to finally see the complete game, I don't know any store that sells this title... please give us hope!
Marathon 2: DurandalMarathon 2: Durandal is the sequel to the first Marathon.
