With the likes of Far Cry 2 and Techland's upcoming Warhound and Dead Island (among many others), it's clear that free roaming RPG-inflected first-person shooters are en vogue. Though many would consider classics like Deus Ex to be the seed for these intelligent first-person action hybrids, fast forward a few years to Boiling Point, Deep Shadows' ambitiously-conceived, yet tragically delivered (two patches too soon) open world FPS role-playing fusion. It offered many fresh non-linear concepts in a giant, seamless South American jungle. The backdrop has shifted to the Caribbean Basin for White Gold, Deep Shadows' next stab at role-playing FPS.
