The game's story is described as immersive but ultimately unremarkable, with a campaign that features a series of missions set in various exotic locations. While the mission briefings are well-executed, the overall narrative lacks depth, and players often find themselves in repetitive "one-man-against-an-army" scenarios. Despite its shortcomings, the campaign offers a decent amount of content with over 30 missions, making it suitable for casual play.
- “The story is immersive and well voice acted.”
- “The mission briefing recordings oddly stand out in that they are well done.”
- “There is a story attached to the campaign, but it’s nothing spectacular.”
- “Realistic feeling missions were replaced by one-man army killathons.”
- “The missions can also get frustrating since if you fail something in the mission you might be put right back at the beginning of the level and might rage quit because it was hard to get to a certain point.”
