i remember this game for the original xbox. i knew the covering system was onto something, it's just a shame that killswitch didn't get the correct marketing it needed.
@redsoxfan1984 Actually mgs2 was the first offensive cover based shooter, so yes it didn't really have a proper cover system, you could only crouch or stand behind objects.
@Fredo5227 No you should say that Gears of War looks like this game not the opposite. (Because this one came first) I don't see how it resembles MGS though. Maybe the suit that the character wears look like Snake's but other than that...
the game that inspired the cover part for gears of war(cliff mentioned it,obviously this game wasn't popular,but its cool that cliff mentioned it reference to a powerhouse like the gears series.)
it also seems far less telegraphed than something like uncharted or gears. when you see a semi-open area with barriers in those games you know a fight is coming up.
Great game, had a blast playing it back then! Maybe it's just about time I bring it back for a quick replay, as I can't really remember anything about the story (because Ryan was completely right in this regard).
Makes me glad I plucked this gem from the bargain bin.

@MatthewTv1000 Wasn't Freedom Fighters just third person with no cover?

In a way, I think the writers of the movie "Gamer" took some ideas from the concept behind the remote controlled soldier I this game

Actually, the 1999 "Winback: Covert operations" for N64 was the game that pioneered the 3rd person shooters with cover-based gameplay.

OMG! I played the demo so much, I could have done a video for the perfect speedrun. I wonder why I never bought the full game.
