Use psychic powers such as telekinesis and pyrokinesis to defeat enemiesįifty minutes of full motion video immerses players in the gripping story line Since the game features a non-linear design, players can accomplish objectives in any manner of their choosing, whether it's through physical force and nimble acrobatics or by using the distinctive powers of the mind.

Psi-Ops has players traveling across the world to infiltrate four of the Movement's high-security compounds and advance through seven fully interactive levels. Tying the action sequences together is a storyline that sheds light on the mystery surrounding Scryer's unique gifts and murky past. In addition to psychic powers, Nick Scryer can use "traditional" means of control by acquiring handguns and automatic weapons. Players can use psychic powers to lift and throw objects (or people) anywhere within the environments, temporarily leave their character's body to scout ahead, drain an enemy's psychic ability in a battle of wills, create a wall of fire to set things ablaze, see objects invisible to the naked eye, and take control of weak-willed characters.

In the not-so-distant future a terrorist group called the Movement, led by an elite army of psychic soldiers, has designs on world conquest.Ī key component in Psi-Ops is the ability to complete missions in a variety of ways. Cast in the role of American Psi-Operative Nick Scryer, players must tap into their character's unique talents for telekinesis, pyrokinesis, remote viewing, mind draining, aura seeing, and mind control. Midway's Psi-Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy offers a new twist on the burgeoning stealth genre by emphasizing psychic powers as a means to achieve objectives, in addition to the use of weapons and agility. To take a look at some of the uses for telekinesis in Psi-Ops, check out our media page.Menus and gameplay are in Multi-5 (English, French, German, Italian & Spanish). While this is one of the more basic puzzles you'll come across in Psi-Ops, it does show off one of the options available to you if you're feeling creative-and are psychically powered, of course. However, if you feel like getting fancy, you can lift a decent-sized piece of debris, stand on it, and then float across the offending gap. On the other hand, if you are telekinetic, you can just about use anything around you to create a bridge that you can easily walk over. If you had enough guns and people-or some monkeys, we imagine-you could also create some kind of elaborate bridge, but again, this would be messy. You could use it to force people around you to help you get across, but that's always messy. For example, let's say you come across an impassable gap in a bridge. While the weapons in the game are well and good, there are just some things a gun can't do. For anyone who's skeptical of the ability's many uses, Psi-Ops makes a pretty compelling case for why you'd want to have it.

Telekinesis is described as " the power to move something by thinking about it without the application of physical force." All of this places it pretty high on the list of powers we'd all like to have. One life lesson is that doing things with your mind is cool. First up is telekinesis.Ĭountless years of comics and science fiction have taught us many things. We'll be taking a look at his powers and their uses in the coming weeks. Instead, you'll use his psychic powers to take out enemies and solve puzzles, thus tapping into the potential of Nick's very own brain. No, you won't be able to throw Nick's brain at his foes. While he will obviously have access to a nice assortment of weapons, which range from pistols and machine guns to grenades, he'll also be able to use his brain when in a pinch. While this sounds like a pretty standard plot for a game or an action film, Midway is putting a new spin on this tried and true formula by including an arsenal of weapons that Nick will have at his disposal. The game places you in the role of Nick Scryer, an agent poised to infiltrate a terrorist organization that's hell-bent on unleashing unpleasant things on the world. Psi-Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy is the upcoming third-person action game for the PlayStation 2 and Xbox.
