Summary

Factional conflict in the region around Solano’s home country Arawas have increased over the last decade. In the rocky political environment brought on by the destablised global economy and the disintegration of key political groups, extremist organisations have flourished. Team Shadow has been established to prevent the worst of these regimes from further threatening global security. Wage your war in helicopters, tanks, jeeps, and on foot - often you’ll have to be an expert in all of these within one mission. Out-battle an impressive array of enemy vehicles and fighting styles, but don’t take anything for granted: the game’s artificial intelligence develops more sophisticated attack and defence strategies as you progress. Or play against your friends: up to 4 people can go head-to-head using Bluetooth wireless technology. [Nokia]

If you're after some fun and quirky serious one man carnage then this game is definitely for you!

Annoying mission objectives, a clunky control scheme, and horrible graphics don’t make for an enjoyable game.

Feels like it never had a QA team test it. The controls are sloppy and the enemies are just stupid. This is a game to avoid.

GameSpot

While its frenetic action is a refreshing reprieve from the numerous plodding, choppy shooters on the N-Gage, Operation Shadow still isn't recommendable, because its gameplay is so unbelievably mindless. Neither strategy nor skill will serve you here.

If the less tangible aspects of Operation Shadow's development, like balancing and level design, were tackled with the same dedication that its graphics were, I may be singing a different tune about this game.
