    I really enjoy this game. I think it is very under rated. I like it better than Splinter Cell in the sense, when Ethan needs to fight, he can, Sam runs around in circles till he's shot dead, bogus! The rest of the stealth stuff and the gadgets are excellent.

    The beginning of the game is awesome, and some other parts throughout are entertaining, but the game turns sour when it concentrates too heavily on puzzles and not enough on gameplay and user-friendliness. Even though Ethan has "help" in other characters, they never come around when you need them most.

    This Splinter Cell-type game is a sequel to Mission: Impossible II. It's nowhere as good as Sam Fisher's adventures. There are plenty of spy gadgets and stealth tactics that you'll use. However, gameplay is often feels more like work than fun. The voice actor playing Ethan Hunt kind of sucks. But it's nice to see Ving Rhames reprise his role of Luther Stickell.

    I barely remember anything of this game, which i played 20 years ago. But i remember it was kind of fun, it was too complex for me, and that i got stuck, left it and forgot about it. Nowadays looks pretty generic.

    I normally don't mind a very specific, linear gameplay structure, I even invite it, but the ideas in the game don't work within this rigidity. [Jan 2004, p.66]

    Probably isn’t going to satisfy those who are looking for an in-depth stealth game requiring strategy and calculating maneuvers.

    I just think that if they could have stepped up the difficulty and/or the AI a few notches, this one could have been really good.
