5.0 out of 5 stars A chance to re-live a fond gaming experience., May 1, 2005

Delta Force: XTreme is a re-make of the excellent original "Delta Force", which was released in 1998. They've pulled the best levels out of the original game and ported them over to NovaLogic's latest graphic's engine, along with adding some more levels. And the results are amazing! From the moment I was plopped into Mission one (the same Mission One from the original game), I was in heaven. I hadn't played the game since 98, so the nostalgia I felt was palpable. It was so fun to be able to play through that very familiar level with the superb graphics, which bear a strong resemblance to the FarCry graphics, only with even longer draw-distances. And if you can see a place, you can go there. You can travel for miles out of your way if you want to. Truly open-ended.

I liken the gameplay to Operation Flashpoint. It's pretty difficult and there doesn't appear to be a way to save your game. However, it does give you the option if you are killed, to re-start the level with full ammo and the enemies you've killed already dead. But that felt kinda like cheating. I'd have preferred a save-anywhere scheme, or at the very least, a couple of save points would help. As it is, it's very difficult, which adds to the tension. I kinda actaully like it that way really, since it forces me to be careful, however the option to choose a save scheme would be appreciated for those who can't live without it.

Enemies appear in droves, and come from all over at the sound of gunfire. You're best off to lie down in prone position and try to pick them off. However, I have not yet found a way to get more ammo. There is no manual with this game. One mission I started with 300 rounds, and that's it baby. I couldn't grab more from fallen enemies or find any anywhere. By pure luck, I finished the mission as my ammo meter reached zero. There may be a way to get ammo that I don't know about, but I haven't found it.

I haven't tried multiplayer yet. Though I am greatly looking forward to playing the 25 included co-op levels with my brother over NovaWorld. The last time we did that was when Delta Force: Land Warrior came out, and that was a blast. At the time, we loved NovaWorld. It was stable, and I'm amazed to see it's still around after all these years.

NovaLogic has been around a long time too. They've been making great games since I bought my first computer. Not many game companies are left from that era, and it's a testament to their dedication to all their games, both old and new. Nothing is abandoned. If you're a fan of an old NovaLogic game, there's still help and support on their website for you.

I played the original Delta Force years ago and I really liked it. I love this one!! It's a reload of the original but it does come with a few downers. Getting extra health and ammo is easy just look for the red and blue boxes on your gps or map. There are extra missions and this one is challenging but not too challenging or you might have to work to hard to play the game lol! It does need save points and a few more health power ups since bad guys come from out of nowhere and wax you. You can't assume you've cleared a part of the map or territory or you'll get waxed. For anyone into FPS I very highly recommend this one!!!! Besides needing save points it could also use a few more weapons. There is a mp5sd3 but no mission truly allows it.

4.0 out of 5 stars nice!, June 18, 2005

A Kid's Review

= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: Delta Force: Xtreme (CD-ROM)

This game is fun! I loved the original Delta Force, so if you liked that you will probably like this too. They just ported all the missions and stuff to the Joint Ops engine---if you have ever played Joint Ops, all the gun models, etc. will look familiar. HUGE DRAW DISTANCES AND MAPS!!! even bigger than far cry. online play is fun, kinda like Joint Ops only without the control points. Graphics are pretty good, there is a nice water reflection effect. plays fine on my p4 2.5ghz, 512mb ram, geforce4mx.


Gameplay: 4/5... fun, but kinda outdated
Graphics: 5/5... good, not as good as half life 2, but these maps are HUGE so that is to be expected
Sound: 3/5... eh its ok
AI: 3/5... pretty simple, but they can aim. not much different from the AI in the original Delta force actually.
Online & Mulitplayer: 5/5... good gameplay rather like Joint Ops, plus you can play all the missions in co-op mode. YAY!

Overall: 4/5... Defintley worth the money at only 20 bucks
