Is it still worth playing?

Jack Carver, a former American special forces operative, searches a tropical archipelago for the journalist Valerie Constantine, who went missing after mercenaries destroyed their boat. It is a 2004 first person shooter. He finds genetic experiments on the local wildlife. The rain forest of the open-ended archipelago gives cover and concealment to both the player and the enemies. Enemies react dynamically to the player's tactics. A lone mercenary who spots the player may run for help and signal reinforcements with flareguns, and enemies work together to outmaneuver, outflank, surround and give suppressive fire. Special binoculars mark enemies on the minimap and let the player listen to their conversations from afar. A jungle full of enemies that flank you is still a place to scout with care today.
