The movies in the game are action packed and full of excitement. However, the faces look like acid was thrown on them. Now in the game, nothing could be better. The graphics are clean, no acid faces, the control is like Resident Evil but you don't have to hold R2 to point the gun. It does it automatically. He holds it like Snake Solid on Metal Gear Solid. In a review I saw, they said there WAS an option to turn OFF THE BLOOD. If you like the armed forces then I highly recommend it. This game is so action packed, you'll have to go to bed early cause it'll wear you out. (not literaly)But I do highly recommend this game for everyone.

Well originally Metal Gear Solid was my favorite game then i went out and ordered this hard to find game. It turned out to be my favorite game. There is a little bit less action then Metal Gear but every time there is action there is usually alot of it. The problems are hard to figure out because there are many individual itmes you may miss. It has a great story line. The best mini games like shooting down helicopters or driving a train. You also get to disarm nuclear warheads. This game may seem to have annoying controls but once you get used to them they're really good. It has about 5 or 7 different endings on 3 difficulties. The game includes many very cool cutscenes throughout it and features about 10 weapons. Some of the weapons are your pistol like the one shown on the cover an MP5 machine gun, Grenades, an Assult Rifle, and many more. The music sets the tone in the whole game and they always scare you somehow whether its a frozen body or a badguy sneakin up behind you or even a badguy jsut yelling at you this game i give a rating of 5 STARS and is a definite buyer for all the poeple that enjoyed Metal Gear Solid, Resident Evil or Syphon Filter.
This Game Is Cool!

Covert ops Nuclear Dawn is one of my favorite games.I just got it yesterday.It's a lot like Metal gear solid.Most of the time you have to get cules to figure out passcodes and where things are.The game is mostly about stopping a nuclear bomb and saving a Ambassador and his family.There are 10 different wepons that you can use in the game.The wepon you start out with is a handgun.This is one of my favorite games.
This Game Is Dope!!!!

Even though this game has a rating of Mature, it should be very appealing to younger gamers. The controls are simple, though if you're an older gamer, watch out(you may feel a little limited). You can crouch, roll left or right, spin around(180 degrees), use the action button to climb or jump from train to train and you can also use triangle to look around, without being noticed(You can also run). Though do not be fooled, for you cannot strafe. Your crosshair can only allow you to hit the ennemy in one certain area, which gets you annoyed after a while. It is occasionally hard to angle your person properly in order to get the crosshair on the ennemy.
The graphics are very nice and you person actually has a normal face.
The sound is a little old, though the music helps set the mood.
Fans of metal gear solid and the resident evil series, would like this game. It mixes the memos, the inventory and the puzzles of resident evil with the stealth, action(punching also) and radio of metal gear.
There are 7 different endings to keep you playing through 3 difficulties. There are also little surprises when you finish the game with the appropriate ending.
Very fun game.(4/5 is not my rating.I give this game a nice 8.2/10)
Not bad

I though this game was pretty well made. Every choice you make may determin the outcome of your game. I didnt think the camera angels were to bad. The controls wernt bad also in my opinion. The story was pretty sweet and the game was quite long its on 2 discs. I would recommand this if you like stelther games and such. If your more of the unreal tournment person iwouldnt recommand it. But i am both
This game was ok.

Contrary to popular belief, this game was rather cool. The A.I was slow, but the action made up for that. If you liked Syphon Filter, and Metal Gear Solid, you should at least rent it.
Rescue the Hostages, kill the badguys, save Paris.

As Lt. Jack Morton of NATO you are assigned to protect the french ambassador to Russia as he and his family return to France aboard the Blue Harvest passenger train. Everything seems okay then Jack's life is sent right down the toilet when a group of para-military terrorists attack the train, kill your entire unit, and hold the ambassador and his family for ransom. When things don't seem like they can get any worse, they do. Intelligence discovers the terrorists may have a nuke hidden on-board. Talk about problems! In my personnal experience with this game: What I like most is it has up to six different endings based on your skill. Everything from the nuke going off to you saving the day. Are you up to the challenge? I almost am. There is only one ending I have yet to reach.
What if Syphon Filter & Dino Crisis had a baby?

This game contains the usual kill-the-bad-guy, collect-the-ammo, collect-the-cardkeys stuff that we've come to love from Dino Crisis, Syphon Filter and Metal Gear Solid. But it looks most like (and is similarly paced to) Dino Crisis. There's a lot of walking around and having no idea where you're going. But once you figure things out, then the fun begins. The cut-scenes are high-quality and the gameplay graphics are pretty good, too. If you enjoy exploring and puzzle solving in relative quiet, then Covert Ops is for you. But, if you'd rather have a more fast-paced game, then I'd recommend one of the Syphon Filter titles. At the very least, Covert Ops should help satisfy you until the next Syphon Filter game (Omega Strain) is released this fall.
