One of the most underrated unique, fun and original open world sandbox games that is unfortunately completely forgotten due being exclusive to PS2 and Xbox OG.

This game has it all:

- Faction mechanics
- Companion mechanics/recruitable npcs
- Disguise/stealth mechanics
- Completely destroyable cities and structures
- Huge variety in vehicles, cars, tanks, helicopters every single one unique and with a different purpose or utility
- Vast arsenal of guns (and yours favorite glitched silenced shotgun from the devs forgetting to use the sfx)
- Many different airstrikes to make it rain from the sky, with artillery or jet bomb strikes
- Black market system, a very useful way to order the vehicles, guns and airstrikes mentioned, at any time
- Missions that can be completed in multiple unique set of ways, with extra rewards from optional objectives
- Amazing soundtrack composed by Michael Giacchino doing some of his best most unique work

If you haven't yet, please, DO PLAY IT! Also always remember to pour one out to my homies from the defunct Pandemic studios.
