Product Description

You're in the army now! As a member of the U.S. Army Rangers, you must control your team as it aims to eliminate the targets of its opponents. Can you complete the challenging mission subtasks in the allotted time? Based in huge, detailed outdoor 3-D environments, your missions revolve around several objectives, including reprisal attacks, seize-and-destroy assaults, counterterrorist attacks, and raid-and-destroy missions. Choose between stealth and all-out frontal assaults. Then navigate the team under the cover of darkness across thick jungles, barren deserts, arctic tundra, and dense forests.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Challenging Simulator, October 12, 2000

By 

Brian Gastellum (Fremont, CA United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Spec Ops: Stealth Patrol (Video Game)

Take 2 Interactive is a solid company with a list of quality games.... I have most of them and the best is Spec Ops. At first I was a bit put off by the difficulty of the game, but with practice and a little experimentation this has become one of my top ten favorites. One thing to keep in mind is th[e price], so it's not going to be the greatest game ever. As far as realism, playability, and replay value go, it's a top notch simulator. The enemy AI is excellent and weapons selection is superb. The battle environments are interactive and big, which is good for those of you who like to explore. For those of you having trouble, you have to play around with team member weapons combinations for each mission until you find something that works for you. If in doubt, go for two M60s and mow everything down! I personally like to use a sniper/ heavy gunner combo. Yes, this game is difficult, but that means you won't finish it in 8 hours like too many games out there. This is an excellent purchase, I would buy any game from Take 2.

3.0 out of 5 stars Recognizing This is a Fun Game, I Accept the Flaws, June 7, 2000

OK. Although this game is not as good as Metal Gear Solid, or as realistic as Rainbow Six(PC version), it still packs some bang for the buck. The graphics are not the worst(that honor goes to Dark Forces). The sound is OK, but nothing to write mom about. The control is tricky at first, but when mastered, you'll be shootin' and movin' like a pro. Now my gripes. Even though you have a great selection when it comes to guns and gear, all of the weapons perform pretty much the same. Believe me, a .50 Barrett sniper rifle has more range and knockdown power than a scoped M4 carbine! In the Vietnam level, you can choose the same weapons and equipment that you can in "modern day" levels. I'm POSITIVE we did not have AN-PVS5 night vision goggles and HK MP5SD sub-guns in Vietnam. And lastly, difficulty. This is a HARD game. So much so, it is impossible to tell a difference between the three levels of challenge. But all-in-all, the ability to command two Army Rangers in hit and run raids using light infantry/special operations tactics is this game's strongest point. So, if you want a fun and challenging game, and don't want to blow alot of money, check this one out.

4.0 out of 5 stars Troy's professional opinion, June 21, 2000

This review is from: Spec Ops: Stealth Patrol (Video Game)

Impossible game. Lets see you finish the first level on the hardest difficulty. Even on the easiest difficulty, it would probably take you a long time to finish the first level.

The graphics are average. Nothing spectacular here.(6/10)

The sound is pretty good. Nice sounds from the environment. Talking to buddy(orders)is pretty cool. Music blends in nicely to sometimes scare you. It keeps you on the edge of your seat. (8/10)

Gameplay: Great, terrific, varied, USELESS! Come on. You hit the floor and do anything you can, but you end up dead(at least on the harder difficulty).(7/10)

Value: It's worth the price. Nice multiplayer co-op mode. 3 difficulties(it seems like they are all qualified as impossible) (8/10)

Presentation: Nice menu's. (7/10)

Overall: Buy this game if you like army games. ................. (7.2/10)
