No One Lives Forever (1&2) on PC and PS2
I always wanted to play those games, they looked super-cool. Thanks for reminding me of the name. Sadly those are another one in licensing hell, with nobody quite clear on who has the rights to the series, so they're not on GOG or anywhere.
I was trying to remember what those were the other day and came across "Perfect Dark", which is also a year 2000 FPS spy thriller with a female lead. It looked close but I wasn't sure it was the one I was thinking of. Perfect Dark was by the Golden Eye developers so also has a Bond vibe, however NOLF has the 1960s fashion vibe, and in the Dark series she's has a more high tech Tom Clancy vibe.

If you want to play NOLF 1 & 2 despite their being unavailable on a storefront, there is in fact a site to get them from if you google places to download them; and they've done the work of making both playable on modern PCs with newer versions of Windows. Oh, and there's Contract Jack as well, but not sure if anyone sees that as more than a curio.

The Saboteur, I have it on PC and PS3
I really need to get around to replaying that at some point. I haven't played it since release, but I remember it being one of the few open world games that was actually pretty great.
NOLF was great. It's really due for a REVIVAL.

Nothing to add, except that NOLF Revival is exactly what people have been looking for.

If they were to remake NOLF 1 & 2, perhaps they could fit in TRON 2.0 at the same time.

I played about halfway through Perfect Dark this year on original hardware; I think it still holds up gameplaywise. Goldeneye 007 will always be my favourite, though. Don't let anyone tell you the Rare N64 shooters are unplayable in the modern age; your brain gets used to the framerate pretty quickly, especially on an old CRT that I've been lugging around for 20 years, and they're great fun.

They've been hanging out on a .tk website for the last decade, maybe? Not sure exactly how long. I've played them fairly recently, maybe a couple of years ago or so.
