The good news isThe Saboteuris one of themany gamesEA recently added toSteam, and an entirely new audience is discovering that, actually, it kind of slaps.

The Saboteuris a heady mix of Assassin’s Creed andGrand Theft Auto, with a dash of Watch Dogs thrown in. Check out the official Steam description below to get your head around what it’s offering.

As long as you go into with an open mind and the knowledge this is a game that came out 15 years ago (sweet Christ I’m getting old), you might actually be surprised how much fun you have with it. Certainly, the majority of Steam reviews are raving about this hidden gem. Oh, and it’s currently 50 percent off so you canpick it upfor less than a fiver.
