"Vietnam 2: Special Assignment" was the excellent 2001 sequel to the also excellent 2000 budget title, "Vietnam: Black Ops." It is a single-player game, ran on the Lithtech engine, and ran in the Windows 95/98/ME environment and required a dedicated video card. I enjoyed this game immensely, for the same reasons as the first game: Excellent level design and environments that really made me feel like I was in those locations. My favorite level was one called "The Burnt Out City", but really, all the other levels were nearly as good, with the possible exception of the level where you float down a river on a raft, which was horribly difficult but do-able. I'd love to be able to play these games again. Published by ValuSoft under the "Elite Forces" banner.
Ratchet & ClankRatchet & Clank is a platform/adventure game in a similar vein to the 3D versions of the Rayman, Sonic, Mario, or other games. It involves the two protagonists Ratchet, a furry alien creature, and Clank, a nerdy little robot, going on a quest to find Captain Qwark and ultimately to help save the galaxy.
Ratchet & Clank includes many of the best features of previous similar games, but makes itself unique in a number of ways. Firstly each of the game's levels are huge sweeping vistas with extremely detailed buildings which are visible at all times (i.e. there is no distance fog). This means that a building on the horizon is not just a "backdrop"; in all likelihood Ratchet will be exploring it in a few moments time. Secondly, the game includes a number of sub-games, such as a space fight sequence and a number of turret shoot-outs which are akin to Missile Command in the first person.
The game has over twenty levels (planets) and includes as many real-time cut-scenes which tell the story. Also of note is that the story is non-linear, requiring the player to return to previous levels to complete objectives and to choose between multiple paths forward. There is also a respectable array of weapons, gadgets, and accessories to find or buy as the game progresses, which offer some unique gameplay features.Action Comedy Science fiction
