Is it still worth playing?
Jack Kellar, a United States Army special forces soldier, is being interrogated about earlier missions involving a terrorist operation in this 2006 first person shooter for the PlayStation 2 and Xbox. He fights terrorists with firearms and grenades, and can carry only two weapons at a time, so the choice of weapon matters. Grenades can be thrown without switching weapons. The game is mission-based, with a cutscene between missions. On harder difficulties there are extra objectives, such as collecting intelligence documents or blueprints and destroying parts of the environment, which are marked when the crosshair changes color. Completing them all on every difficulty above Easy awards Silver Weapons with infinite bullets. A shooter built around destruction and explosions still has its place.
