But the worst offenders are always the games you should have picked up and never did. Well, worry not, fellow sinners, for our Weekly Staff Picks: New Year Absolutions will help you settle the bill with the Gaming Gods and venture into the rest of the year as a whole new person!

I might be tempted by Satellite Reign. I love cyberpunk-ish setting usually. Anyone here played it? How is it?

As long as you're not bothered by a really dark world, it's pretty amazing. It's got a lot going for it - open world, quest at your own pace, multiple ways to achieve objectives, neon/rain-slick cyberpunk ambiance, and even some character customization. If you're a cyberpunk fan it's an absolute must-have, especially if you liked the old Syndicate games.

If we buy satellite reign will we got the new improvements ?

Really dark world isn't a problem. I'm vary of the "RTS" aspect and I generally suck at real time strategy games, but they generally have a lot more units to manage than this game.

Satellite Reign is getting multiplayer soon and is getting better all the time.

Satellite Reign is real-time small squad management. But you could say it uses RTS mechanics as its basically the same just small scale.

What Silver said. It's listed as real-time strategy everywhere despite you using only 4 squaddies. Anyway, I bought it (along the soundtrack, because I collect those) and it now stand in my installed game "backlog" along with way too many games (and I have even more that aren't installed).

Wow…I'd have totally never pictured it as an RTS.

The original Syndicate was a tactical RTS with modest RPG elements
