Winback 2: Project Poseidon


Don't take those meds - a split personality can come in handy

The presentation of Project Poseidon also leaves much to be desired, with awkward and simplistic texturing, not to mention some downright asinine vocals. Even younger gamers aren't likely to take a thug seriously if he taunts you for "hiding like a wussy." The basic gameplay wrapped inside these unpolished layers is still moderately amusing, even if the split-personality twists never quite lift the whole from the fray. Ultimately, armchair counterterrorist operatives should consider Winback 2 worth playing, but far from mandatory training.

You'll love
  • Partner-driven gameplay is original
  • Lots of short and sweet missions
  • Emphasizes tactics over bullets
You'll hate
  • Graphics aren't so hot
  • Aggravating controls
  • Painful dialogue
