HGO has collected a lot of footage over the years, and not all of it has seen the light of day. So we figured why not have new video segments to show previously unaired material. Some of you old school PC gamers out there might remember Syndicate Wars, an isometric action game where you controlled cybernetic agents to carry out daring (and almost always violent) task to further the cause of your corporation. In between the action the players would be able to allocate research in the Labs for better weapons and devices, or go to the Cryovat to store or thaw unused agents. Thus “Cryovat” was born, what a fitting name for a segment for us to showcase all the media that we’ve had in “cold storage”. Please continue to check back throughout the month to see what we dig up.
