You are Andrew Sterling, a disavowed agent caught in the
cat-and-mouse manipulations of a shadow intelligence agency.
To facilitate its mission this agency now pervades all aspects
of politics, national security, and the highest echelons of
human society. You must fight through a complex web of intrigue,
double cross, and sinister global interest...
Cold
Winter is an incredibly addictive first person shooter
(FPS) which benefits from a very impressive and well crafted
presentation. I know! I know! The market is saturated with
FPS and finding anything original is becoming harder and harder.
In all honesty if you're looking for something fresh then
you won't find it here. But what Cold Winter does do
is suck you into its world and keep you glued to the screen.
I
did have some issues with Sterling's vulnerability. You have
unlimited medication that, assuming you keep an eye on it,
ensures you should never die. However you can be hit with
loads of bullets and not show much sign of damage, and then
one of your enemies can sneak up behind you and beat you to
death in seconds.
You
can search all you enemies once you've downed then - taking
their armour (for all the use it was to them), weapons and
other bits that they have about their person - which you can
then use to make lock picks, or petrol bombs when combined
with items you'll find littered around the gaming area.
The
music is fantastic, as are the vocal talents of the actors.
This, coupled with the impressive cut sequences add much to
the game play.
This
is, without a doubt, one of the top 5 FPS games so far released
on the PS2.
