I remember playing this game in my childhood. I mostly played single player missions against bots, but I liked that there were multiple objectives to pursue and it wasn't just multiplayer. I liked that there were multiple classes to choose from in this game. My favorite back then was the medic. I really hope this game comes to GOG to try again.
This is one of my childhood games. Used to play it all the time, AI in there posed quite a challenge despite everything. With friends we'd compare our favourite weapons, which mission was the hardest (third mission, if I remember right, Peru, in the first campaign, was hell for me).
What's more important? It had specialities, classes if you will. Each time you got shot, you could come back as a different specialist.
This game is nowhere to be found. But the community for it is living as far as I know, even if small. It's a not-so-popular title, somewhere between SWAT and Counter strike with how you can communicate with teammates with shortcuts.
It deserves a chance now, when we need such titles in the age of modern releases.
I would give this Game 10 Votes if i could. I really loved to play this one. I ordered a Copy of it on Amazon a few Years ago but as cursed as i am, the Game doesnt run on my PC because it cant work out the Compability Issues somehow. Even if it Co-existed together in the Counter Strike Era and other Multiplayer Shooter Games, it had its own rights to stand out. Having different Maps representating multiple Factions and Special Forces arround the Globe, able to pick either the Terrorists or Counter Terrorists, selecting your Type of Class like Demolitions, Recon, Heavy Gunner etc. sounds like a little mix of Team Fortress and Counter Strike but it stayed on its own rights. It was incredible Fun and i wished so much for this Game to find its way on an official Plattform to be able to play it again. Just a Classic from my Youth.
One of the first games I ever played, would bug my brother constantly to play it on his PC, spent many a hour and day, Sri Lanka was always my favourite mission, perfect mix of close quarter combat while also having long distances for sniping. Man, memories, heres to hoping

Darkened SkyeIn the action-oriented 3D role-playing game Darkened Skye, the player takes the role of the title character and embarks on a quest to collect four prisms that may help bring the light of goodness back to the world. Skye of Lynlora was just a restless shepherd when she first came across the strange item that would change her life forever. Now she has opened a portal to another place and chaos has come forth. Only Skye can set things right once again. She will face an assortment of fantasy characters and creatures in her journeys as she makes her way through 30 missions set across five different game worlds. It is notable that, like some other releases from publisher Simon and Schuster (including the Boston Animation-developed M&M's: The Lost Formulas), this game features prominent product placement in the form of Skittles brand fruit-flavored candies. Indeed, it is the mystic power of Skittles that moves Skye through more than one threatening game situation. In spite of any potential incongruities of featuring a familiar consumer item in a fantasy world, Darkened Skye strives to provide the graphical competence, engrossing story, and state-of-the-art play that gamers expect from a major 2002 release. ~ T.J.
