Operation Winback Details

Operation Winback

Metal Gear Solid on PlayStation was one of the most successful titles of the 1990s. It spawned a slew of stealth-em-up games. Operation Winback was just one of those games, and its now available on PS2.

After being attacked by a hi-tech weapons satellite, you have approximately three hours before the next strike. You take on the role of Jean-Luc Cougar, a member of S.C.A.T. (Strategic Covert Actions Team). Its your responsibility to regain control of the satellite, currently controlled by the terrorist group Crying Lions, and restore peace.

Before you start Operation Winback, it is advisable to make use of the games tutorial, Boot Camp. Here, you will learn how to gain full control of your character, as well as learning strategic stealth manoeuvres. Once you feel confident enough to take on the Crying Lions, you can begin the game proper. You have a plethora of offensive weapons and defensive tools to choose from, but use them wisely; no resource is inexhaustible.

Game modes include team battles and 4-player death matches, in which you must seek out your opponents, obliterate them, and avoid having the same thing happen to you. All in all, Operation Winback proves to be a good learning experience if youre considering a career in law enforcement. If youre not a man of the law, youre gonna have a ball anyway.
