This has to be the best FPS for GameCube.  Naturally, it's a Tom Clancy title.
  You commmand a small, six-man squad of Ghosts (specially trained Green Berets that are the first into action and the last out).
  Yes, a six-man squad.  Not a "platoon".  Six guys is small for a squad; a platoon is made up of three or four squads.  The use of the word platoon may be the only goof in this game, and it's more of a pet-peeve than anything else.
  Your squad is divided into two teams, Alpha and Bravo.  You can set waypoints for a team to follow, which comes in handy.
  Finally, a story that isn't about terrorists!!  Woo-hoo!!  It's 2008 and radical Ultranationalists have seized power in Moscow, attempting to rebuild the old Soviet empire.  You go in and screw up everything the Ultranationalists are trying to do and finally wind up in Red Square, liberating the people of Russia.  Wierd.  The U.S. liberating Russia.  Weird, or brilliant story-writing?
  Unlike the similar GameCube title, "The Sum of All Fears", this game provides a challenge.  You have to be careful.  If the baddies see you before you see them, you can consider yourself dead.  When you open up, you have to be accurate or they'll get you in a matter of seconds.  If you're really a bad shot, you have to start worrying about ammo.
  You are thoroughly briefed before each mission, and then are able to hand-pick men for your squad whose abilities fit the needs of the mission objectives.
  Everything from SAWs to Claymores are at your disposal, and bringing along the proper equipment and placing your teams in strategic locations will win the mission.
  I loved the little movies with H-60 variants and tanks and demo charges going off. Fun to watch.
  I have my doubts about the "M" rating.  Conflict: Desert Storm has a "T" rating and is just as bloody.  You can even turn the blood off in this game!!  ESRB must've been having an off-day or something when they rated this.
  This is an excellent war game, with a fictional but realistic and believable story that will have you at the edge of your seat.  I want to see if someone can top this one heck of a game.
