Although you can breeze through the single player game in an evening, the multiplayer game has enough variety to last a long time. It's got almost enough gameplay to rival Battlefield 1942 as the definitive team-based action game, but with a much smoother, more ambitious, and ultimately more effective engine. It moves easily between fighting in wide open terrain and claustrophobic street battles, and it looks great either way. It's a compelling marriage of technology and gameplay that finally shows off Novalogic's years of experience making action games. Questionable subject matter and timing notwithstanding, this is the best game they've made in a long time.
