The game unfolds on a sci-fi cyberpunk setting where mega corporations have corrupted all the way to governments. Yes there&#8217;s plenty of violence in Syndicate, and immorality behind all that you do in the game, but there were few things after that that made me feel more powerful then when I used that Minigun and that Flamethrower to\u00a0eradicate\u00a0everything in my path. Hehe, it&#8217;s a game so there&#8217;s no problem in having a bit of fun :)<\/p>\n<p><a  title=\"Good old Games\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gog.com\/en\/frontpage?pp=3fcfb99ec010d4a8ba364f43169465d91ca39ada\" target=\"_blank\">Good old Games<\/a> (or GoG for short) has managed to bring Syndicate to their DRM-free collection of old video games.

Well, that&#8217;s ok, it will take the Syndicate just a phone call to fix all that :)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Good old Games (or GoG for short) has managed to bring Syndicate to their DRM-free collection of old video games.
