    There's nothing here gameplay-wise that's new or original, or even competitive, given the season...The lag in online bouts is atrocious. [Holiday 2004, p.34]

    Shadow ops is an ok game but it could have been much better, like the saving game system. The story needs more structure and its really scripted.
