Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Graphics at the time were considered to be really good, and it held up pretty well honestly.
52 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
Starting off the campaign, you are greeted with a roster of best SAS operatives that you'll choose four from.
50 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
Some mission feel unfair, as you can not do a whole lot to improve your situation, like an on-rail defense section (That feels woefully out of place gameplay wise) or a mission where you're bombarded by artillery and it's pretty much the luck of the draw if you'll be able to make it through.

Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
Its multiplayer servers shut down a long time ago (but I am sure there are ways to get some of the multiplayer working), and maybe playing this game with a buddy instead of the friendly AI would make it a barrel of laughs.
23 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Performance
Players who bring up Performance mostly praise it.
The 'Value for Content' Ratio is overwhelmingly incredible and deserves a place in the library of fans who enjoy any of the WW2 FPS Sandbox and Stealth genres.

Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
There are co-op missions as well, but I haven’t tried those yet.
