The Intro - Your character, Jones, is a very British ex SAS commando. (SAS is the Brit version of our Navy Seals) He retired, and is now doing freelance work with his foxy-computer-chic friend Anya. He is now doing some chores for the government. What's that, you say? Recovering lost nukes from a terrorist organization. Hmm, now where have I heard that before? COUGH! soldier of fortune... COUGH! Oh well, I guess good writers are in short supply these days.
Gameplay - I've had my eye on this game for a while, and downloaded it as soon as I could, expecting a great game. What I found was only decent. The game has huge potential that just was not exploited. Still, there were many features that make it worth a look. First and
foremost, is the fact that you can shoot through walls! This may not sound like much, but believe me, it is very fun. Hiding in a wooden storehouse and blasting soldiers through the side is sweet! However, the AI is very good at it also. Maybe a little too good. Their guns will continue to track you through walls as you take cover, providing fun, but sometimes
frustrating action. Also, there are no holes in the walls that you have shot, just decals. I know it's not too much to ask for some real friggin' holes, but almost every single game takes the crappy shortcut of pasting cheap decals on to stuff. One
notable exception, was the game Kingpin, Life of Crime, that actually showed exit wounds. I would
recommend that you read the review of on the previous page.
