  • Summary: Set in Somalia in 1993, Delta Force – Black Hawk Down is based upon and around the Operation Restore Hope and Task Force Ranger campaigns and follows members of the elite Delta Force and US Army Rangers as they participate in a number of daring raids against the oppressive Somali warlords in and around Mogadishu. Using the original PC version as a basis, British based developer Rebellion is redesigning the game specifically for the PS2. As well as a redesigned single player mode, Delta Force - Black Hawk Down will also have several brand new multiplayer features, including 32 player games online. NovaLogic has also teamed up with the Special Operations Warrior Foundation. A portion of the proceeds from the PS2 version of Black Hawk Down will be donated to the foundation. The SOWF provides college scholarship grants, along with financial aid and educational counseling to the children of Special Operations personnel who were killed in an operational mission or training accident.

    With a harrowing 16-mission single-player experience, and monstrous multiplayer arenas, this disc is worthy of your hard-earned per diem, grunt.
  2. A decent first-person shooter but it's based on the two-year old PC version. In this day and age of military, quad-based, tactical shooter, Black Hawk Down is a bit of a disappointment.
  3. What originally was a high quality, entertaining game, has really lost its way and I can't think of many people who would be happy spending $50 for it.

    Decent character models and some nicely rendered desert locales. Your squad members are virtually useless except for tossing you the occasional ammo and providing some health. Enemy AI is inconsistent and soundtrack is annoying-voiceovers become especially repetitive ("Hell of a shot!") Overall, entertaining and better than MOH EA but not a game with high replay value. Personally, I'm looking forward more to SOCOM III and COD: Big Red One. Expand
