Ive played WC2, 3, 4 and Prophecy and Secret Ops... and I > know how Secret Ops made me feel. Well there you start... You do not know WC1 and its addons, which Prophecy tried to remake to some point. You also don't write if you have the addons to WC2? If not you don't have addons to any WC game, yet you compare Secret Ops to something. You also missed the awesome Privateer 1 which is a real shame (WC4 and P1 are considered by far the best 2 WC games). P1 OTOH for example (and to a lesser extend WC1) does have its story very much delivered like Secret Ops does. You can count the rendered sequences on one hand, most story is delivered by talking heads with subtitles. You problem IS your lack of WC games as you only own those that either have filmed footage (WC3, WC4, WCP) or have extremely many rendered stuff like WC2. About every other game (besides Privateer 2) in the WC universe that you don't have, would remind you much more of Secret Ops. -- Why is a government worker like a shotgun with a broken firing pin? It won't work and you can't fire it. [Delete the karl after the @ to avoid my spam trap]
