Delta Force: Black Hawk Down is the third game in the Black Hawk Down trilogies, based loosely on the film and book Black Hawk Down.
Set in Somalia, and roughly following the films storyline, you must complete a number of single player missions that see you as a Delta Force ranger fighting the militia and drug lords in urban areas as well as more rural settings.
Missions include driving in a Humvee through Mogadishu, manning the machine gun, and piloting a machine gun on a black hawk. This is not a realistic tactical shooter game, and if that’s what you’re looking for, be advised that Black Hawk Down will probably dissapoint.
If, however, all you’re looking for is a midly amusing shooter, that is not particularly difficult, you should find Delta Force: Black Hawk Down to be pleasant enough.
It feels quite arcade like as you endlessly shoot miltia from Humvees, choppers and with your trusty rifle. The AI is not particularly skillful either and unless you’ve never played an FPS before you’re unlikely to find it diffucult.
The enemy seem quite incabable of landing a hit on you and your team mates are not the most useful - it will mostly be down to you to save the day.
All in all, if you want a quick bit of fun, which is made more atmospheric by the setting, Delta Force: Black Hawkl Down is a reasonably pleasing game.
It retails for just under $30 and the spec requirements are quite low (PowerPC G3/G4/G5, 733 MHz or faster).
