About this product

Product Information

As Gabriel Logan, one of the government's top agents, you must neutralize the terrorists that threaten Washington D.C. and destroy a biological weapon that has been built to end the lives of millions of innocent people. The action unfolds over thirteen missions that are chock full of dangers, hazards and puzzles.<br><br>Syphon Filter is based around a covert operation sent in to disarm a lethal virus code of the same name. To successfully complete your mission, you must utilize each of your character's skills accordingly. Logan will have to kneel, crouch, walk, roll, climb, jump and run to meet his objectives. Each one serves a different purpose and it will be up to you whether you should try to jump a laser-alarm or crawl under it.<br><br>Fortunately for you, a wide variety of weaponry and special gadgets have been supplied. The weapons range from explosive grenades and tasers to silenced rifles and pistols. Like your character's maneuvers, each weapon should be used with precision and planning. For instance, a stealth mission would require the use of quiet weaponry -- a taser (electric shocker) or a silenced pistol would do the trick. For an all out war with an army of terrorists, you'd have to break out the heavy artillery including grenades and automatic firearms.<br><br>The game is played from a 3rd person perspective much like Tomb Raider. The various indoor and outdoor environments and character models have been rendered in 3D. Because the action gets pretty heated sometimes, the developers included a few different targeting modes to help out. There is the default mode, manual look/aim and target lock. When you're in a gun battle, you are given the option to lock on to your closest foe.<br><br>Each level starts of with a mission briefing carefully outlining what it is that needs to be done. These details can be accessed anytime throughout the game via a communication device. This device also handles the weapon systems and game options. Additionally, Syphon Filter supports the Dual Shock Analog Controller for precision aiming and vibration.

  • Great underrated retro series

    This franchise helped pave the way for action stealth games. Playing it now both gives me nostalgia but also makes me appreciate how far videogames have come in two decades. For me, Syphon filters mechanics can be wonky in terms of navigation but it still had a good targeting system for combat. Also, the AI for enemies primative by today's standards. Yet, running and gunning your way through levels at times reminds of action movies from the 80s and 90s. The sound design and graphics hold up ok, although it's obviously dated. Apart from this, the games are great fun for a throw back experience.

  • It takes a sec, then it’s gravy

    I was super excited to get this, I practically ran from mailbox to family room and pulled out my good ol’ PlayStation 2(upgrades make the world go round) pressed open on my machine and put this bad boy in. For a good long minute it did nothing, no music, no sound, no dice! I think then I took it out to see, how I could help. No change in the disc(obviously) no change in my PlayStation, everything was in tiptop shape. Put it back in, no changes made, runs like a top now.
