Delta Force review
Delta Force is an entertaining one-stop-shop for competitive multiplayer action, but its Black Hawk Down campaign is unpleasant in all the wrong ways.
The bipartisan military junta of Battlefield and Call of Duty is in dire need of a shake-up, and the passion Team Jade seemingly has for Delta Force - a somewhat forgotten series in the West, but a cultural phenomenon in China where the studio is based - made me hopeful its take on big-budget buddy blasting would help change the tune for this particular strand of first-person shooting. Team Jade makes bolder decisions in its recently released cooperative campaign, Black Hawk Down, but these ideas are underdeveloped and poorly executed, leading to a desperately unpleasant experience Delta Force may have been better off without. Its individual modes might not be wildly original in and of themselves (although Operations does more to distinguish itself than Warfare), but the ability to hop from massive cacophonous battles into more methodical, squad-based adventures does have a novelty, and Delta Force does both well enough that they equally reward your time.
