An overlooked fun FPS

This game ended up not selling as well as hoped. Mostly due to the fact that the game relyed heavily on it's online counter part when PS2 online was just becoming availible. And it suffer's from a weak solo-campain. But the game all around is an overlooked game I personally have put quite a few hour's into. The game for starter's isn't the best looking game out there. The character model's look good but everything else just seem's bassic FPS. The enviroment's though are not heavily detailed, and don't get me wrong they look good. Also let's not forget that the game came out in 02', but the enviroment's are very expansive. Making it fun to go off on side attack's out of no where. The sound is good from weapon fireing to the OST sound good. But there is a lot of repititious vocal's during battle. Thankfull they game is so fast paced you get dragged into the action and you don't really notice it all to much. The controll's in this game are very smooth and responsive. Also easy to grasp and pick up and play standard FPS. But the in game option's make the game not the easiest FPS to grab full hold of. As I stated earlier the game highly rely's on the online gameplay, the solo mission's are more to teach you how the game work's and get your skill's honed for online battle. Online the game become's fun and interesting, with 15+ enviroment's and 5 style's of battle it give's every FPS fan what he/she want's in a game. The only downfall is the lack of team communication, you more have to either do a 2 player online to get real team action going. Or just get into a rythm with people over a time of playing. Making it hard to orgaize attack's and what not. At time's when people are constantly filtering in and out of the battle you are in thing's can end up as just throw yourself in a mass at the enemy. But overall this is a solid fun fighter that I would recomend to anyone who like's FPS, but note you must be able to get online to truly enjoy this game. Being as it's only about 5 buck's now you might want to pick this up and see what you missed.
