SiN is a First-Person Shooter action game for the PC developed by Ritual Entertainment and published by Activision in 1998. It's the first installment in the SiN franchise.Set in 2037, the games follow Colonel John Blade, the commander of an elite private security force, HardCorps, in the fictional Freeport City. A number of private security forces have taken the place of traditional police - one of these being SinTEK, a biotechnology firm owned by Elexis Sinclaire, a charismatic and dangerous leader who plans to reinvent mankind in her own image using mutated humans. The original game begins with Blade investigating reports of a robbery at the Freeport City Bank. As he digs deeper into the case, he soon discovers that Sinclaire will stop at nothing to carry out her plan, and that he is the only person standing between her and global domination...Throughout the game, Blade is aided via radio link by a computer hacker at HardCorps named JC, who assists him with hacking networks and discovering more information. To survive in his quest, Blade must travel through a wide variety of levels, battling SinTEK forces and scavenging health packs and armor off their bodies as he progresses, along with collecting a variety of weapons.The original game (which was caught up in the wake of Half-Life despite releasing almost a month before it) was criticized for being buggy and somewhat generic gameplay, but praised for the strong level design and excellent music. It still sold well enough to receive several follow-ups, including an Expansion Pack called Wages of Sin, where the villain focus is Gianni Manero, a mafia boss who wants to eradicate Freeport City using Elexis's research. It was developed by 2015 Inc., fixed a few bugs, and added a new set of levels and new features, such as the ability to use the standard handgun two at a time.The original SiN and its expansion pack, bundled as SiN Gold, can be purchased for $9.99 on Steam and also on GOG.com. The Steam version in particular used to contain only the base game, and was exclusive to purchases of SiN Episodes: Emergence as a free bonus, however, after Nightdive Studios acquired the SiN IP in 2020, they separated it from Emergence, updated it to the Gold edition of the game, and made several enhancements that previous owners received free of charge on March 18th of that year; the enhancements were also added to the GOG version. Nightdive is also currently remastering Gold in its Kex Engine under the name of SiN Reloaded. The remaster is being made in collaboration with 3D Realms, whose own previously shelved attempt at a SiN remaster is given new life as a result of the IP's rights changing hands.Followed by SiN Episodes: Emergence. | |

Unexpected Gameplay Change | |
| SiN (1998) (Video Game) / int_1467a30c | comment |
Unexpected Gameplay Change: The first mission of the game, as well as the beginning of the Oil Rig mission, turn the game into a Rail Shooter. Late in the game, Blade is transformed into a Manumit and is forced to fight with his bare claws and recover U4 flasks for his constantly-draining health. | |

Offscreen Start Bonus | |
| SiN (1998) (Video Game) / int_25f41fd3 | comment |
Offscreen Start Bonus: There's an Easter Egg ATM located right at the starting point of the bank level in the original game that (if you obtain the codes from a computer later in the level) allows you to transfer Elexis' entire savings account to Blade, thus making him a very rich man. It's not even apparent that you can access the machines until you stand directly in front of it. | |

Bag of Spilling | |
| SiN (1998) (Video Game) / int_28104b90 | comment |
Bag of Spilling: At several points, Blade will start a series of missions without bringing over the ammo and weapons from the previous levels. Most notable when Blade goes from HardCorps HQ to the SinTEK offices wielding nothing more than his handgun and fists (even though the previous level had him using four different weapons). | |

Easter Egg | |
| SiN (1998) (Video Game) / int_29a39f6 | comment |
Easter Egg: Using the ATMs in the first level to access the account number 123456 with the PIN 1234 shows that President Skroob has an account with Freeport Bank. Taking the time to swim against a current of water during the underwater level (something which most players are unwilling to try) will lead you into a secret room filled with inactive submarines and a message telling you that you're not supposed to be there, along with the advice underneath to start playing the game again. | |

Limited Wardrobe: There's a part in the final three levels of the game where you can find a worker's uniform stashed in a vent which will help you past a few security checkpoints early on. Even when Blade has to fight the penultimate boss fight of the game, the cutscene still shows him wearing the uniform. | |

Game-Breaking Bug | |
| SiN (1998) (Video Game) / int_33ca811a | comment |
Game-Breaking Bug: In the unpatched version, many players were never able to see an extra level (the Silo) accessed through the Freeport Dam, as the game would crash if the player happened to just walk down the only hallway leading to the alternate exit in the level. Even in the patched version, going through the "Biomass Reclamation Center" secret level will render the game unwinnable as the entryway into Darwin Chamber 3 will never open, forcing the player to no-clip through it. | |

Sniping Mission: The first Oil Rig level has a short section wherein you must snipe all the guards on the lower level before you can board it. An easy mission, as the guards are never close together and have predictable patrol routes. | |

Blasting It Out of Their Hands | |
| SiN (1998) (Video Game) / int_4cbc7f95 | comment |
Blasting It Out of Their Hands: It is possible for enemies to shoot the gun out of the player's hands, but not vice-versa. And this only has the effect of forcibly switching you to another weapon; you can switch right back. Also a subversion in that it does as much damage to the player as hitting them anywhere else would. | |

Guns Akimbo: One of the additions is the ability to use two Magnum pistols at once as soon as you grab a second one - quite conveniently, sticking around in the opening of the first on-foot level for a few seconds has a single enemy graciously rappel in behind you and then drop a second pistol when you cap him. | |

Shooting Gallery: There are four shooting galleries in the training stage: a sniper range, a skeet range, and the lineup and city ranges found in Hogan's Alley. However, the skeet range uses an inaccurate shotgun, and the lineup shooting range used a slow-firing pistol when you needed to hit three targets quickly. In all four galleries, reaching the score limit wraps the score to zero. | |

Body Armor as Hit Points | |
| SiN (1998) (Video Game) / int_7e8a8eac | comment |
Body Armor as Hit Points: Surprisingly in-depth for the time, as armor is divided into several sections (helmets, vests and thigh pads) that separately deplete depending on where you get hit. It's also treated realistically in that, rather than being able to somehow instantly repair your vest by picking up another one with almost no integrity left, you can only loot armor if it's in a better state of repair than what you currently have. | |

Optional Stealth: The first SinTEK levels are supposed to be completed in a stealthy way, as you're undercover and must prevent the workers to raise the alarm and call the security: failing the stealth part (which is surprisingly easy in level 7) will result in more fights with more enemies. | |

No OSHA Compliance: The Jungle and Mountain Gorge levels in the original are all subject to this, as a result of Blade's rampaging across the Secret Docks. This led to the area being filled with lava, rails being broken, monsters running amok and tons of SinTEK goons perishing. Not being careful enough in said levels also lock Blade from accessing several bonus areas, but that's a minor detail. | |

Storming the Castle: Done unwittingly. Blade doesn't realize he's reached Elexis's base until he's within sight of it, and by that point, there's no going back. | |

Cool Bike | |
| SiN (1998) (Video Game) / int_bb0197af | comment |
Cool Bike: The multiplayer levels of Wages of SiN introduce a hoverbike which also is armed with lasers, missiles and hovering mines. In many of the levels are different checkpoints for doing races. | |

Minor Crime Reveals Major Plot | |
| SiN (1998) (Video Game) / int_bd79d896 | comment |
Minor Crime Reveals Major Plot: The bank robbery led by Tony Mancini at the beginning of the game eventually leads HardCorps to discover that Mancini has ties with SinTEK's head honcho Elexis Sinclaire and eventually her plans to Take Over the World as Mother Nature, kickstarting the rest of the plot. | |

Disconnected Side Area | |
| SiN (1998) (Video Game) / int_c32d3344 | comment |
Disconnected Side Area: In one of the strangest applications of this trope, with a little bit of searching in some levels it's possible to find areas that appear to be part of the level, but are actually a sneak preview of a level later on in the game. | |

Developer's Foresight | |
| SiN (1998) (Video Game) / int_d24ed873 | comment |
Developer's Foresight: In Elexis' estate, it's possible to find a secret janitor closet that has a camera feed showing Elexis sitting in a hot tub (which wouldn't be glimpsed until the next level). Although it's impossible to see what she's doing normally in regular gameplay, clipping out of the level will allow you to find the jacuzzi area before you exit, and you'll subsequently realize that the developers put a very special animation of Elexis (fully animated and all) for those who discover it. | |

Super Not-Drowning Skills: Blade can find a Rebreather that allows him to swim ad infinitum without the need to breathe. If you forget to take it, you can still complete the necessary level by using air bubbles. | |

Incompetence, Inc.: In several points of both installments, important security computers are locked by passwords. To crack them, you need only find the really big computer and type in the name of the guy whose password you want. And this big computer, housing every password and controlling every camera, alarm, and security system in a whole level? It has no password. | |
