It’s a bit of an apples and oranges situation but considering the history I’m curious which one people prefer in a situation where you could only have one. I believe 2006 is still considered abandonware with it previously being listed on Steam but being removed when they ran out of keys.
I liked 2017’s gameplay but I felt like 2006 was more memorable and unique so I think I’d choose it.
Fairly different games, 2006 was more of a classic linear narrative shooter in the early 2000s tradition but with some brilliant mechanics and novel guns, and a pretty cool storyline (if a bit b-movie-like). 2017 offers a freedom of approach and exploration that’s uncomparable, but it’s also more stern in atmosphere and tone. I don’t have a favourite, but now you made me want to do a replay of 2006
I feel like 2006 was a bit like a rollercoaster. You kind of just enjoy the ride and eagerly await what’s coming next. It helps it’s a relatively short game by today’s standards with HowLongToBeat saying it will take seven hours to complete.

3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.
