Omikron: The Nomad Soul PC

The great quest in computer gaming is for the 'holy grail' of complete player absorption. The game should be an alternate life, an escape fantasy in which the player completely loses all conception of earthly self and simply plays the game. The ideal game world should be a truly alternate reality, as interactive as can be while creating the illusion of limitless possibilities.Omikron: The Nomad Soul is the first game I've ever seen that approaches that goal, and thus far is the best single player gaming experience of the year.

Omikron sinks you (or rather, your soul) into the city of Omikron in a parallel universe. Initially placed in the body of Investigating Agent Kay'l of the Omikron Security Forces, you have to find out why Kay'l so desperately contacted you through your computer screen and requested the soul transfer. You must uncover the dark mystery behind this strange world and set things straight or lose your soul trying. If you don't beat the game, you are damned for eternity. Talk about motivation!
Aside from generally excellent sound effects and voice acting, the entire game is backed by an atmospheric musical score composed by David Bowie and guitarist Reeves Gabrels. It perfectly captures and defines the bizarre and mysterious ambience of Omikron. Even better are the eight songs composed by David Bowie that appear in the game both in the opening and closing credits. There are even a series of in-game concerts you can go to, complete with 3D modeled David Bowie and Reeves Gabrels on stage.
If you're looking for a change of pace in the gaming world, Omikron delivers. Never before have I seen a game capable of taking you away for a few hours at a time like this one can. Don't be put off by the classifications you'll see this game fall under. It is truly a masterpiece.
Omikron is a remarkable game. It creates what is easily the most believable, versatile, and alive game environment yet produced in a PC title and puts you right in the middle of it. Once you begin play you'll find yourself drawn into Omikron's unique world and gripping story, unable to play anything else, unable to think about anything else, unable to do anything else besides run to the store on a quest for David Bowie albums. This is the stuff that revolutionary games are made of, and unless something really utterly amazingly in the manages to come down the pipe in the next two months, Omikron has my vote for game of the year.
This was history that we now live.
Its a huge game.Just think,Blade runner, Aldous Huxley, David Bowie, Your soul, freedom of exploration, cyber space, anti government control, surreal, thoughtful and inspiring. IN the same league with Anachronox, The Outcast, Sanitarium, Beyond Good and Evil.
