A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Article already mentions it but folks behind No One Lives Forever Revival project are the real MVP. Hosting both games + Contract Jack, all updated for modern hardware and widescreen resolutions.
Can't buy it? No worries, piracy saves that day! Again.
Such a great series that I wish continued.
Thief was also a fantastic series around that time. Hopefully, the VR version coming out soon will do it justice, but have my doubts.
I remember using a crossbow to kill a ninja enemy in NOLF 2, which pinned her to the wall... But I didn't see that from a distance, so it looked like she was still standing. So I kept edging closer and shooting more bolts until I was right next to her. Never really saw that mechanic in any other games.
Looks like the site that hosts the revival files got overwhelmed.
I can try to set up a mirror. Can you provide a link to the official site?
Looks like it's back up: http://nolfrevival.tk/
Cheers. I've set up a download mirror, details posted in my root-level comment to this post.
