    3.It's newer.
    4. You can play as Vietcong and have teammates in Quickfight

    BONUS:
    Purple Haze is the same game as this one , it's just the PS2 version
    There is also a free add-on named Red-Dawn that has 1 mission

    cons:

    Very nice tweaked add-on to Vietcong. Call me a purist or what have you, but I could have done without the consistent cursing throughout the gameplay, though I assume this all the more adds to the 'realism' of the Vietnam War setting. The environments seemed very much more real than the orig. game.

    If you loved Vietcong, you'll probably love this expansion; just don't get your hopes up about finding anything groundbreaking.

    This is a damn good shooter which offers lots of action and options including an engaging single-player mode and an online multi-player game with several modes to choose from.

    There's really no way of getting around it. Vietcong and the expansion offer a type of gameplay in a shooter that you can't really find in any other setting.
