Main title from the opening cinematic

Main Menu

The game starts with a regular call to investigate the suspicious activities at some warehouse

During your first mission, help will be provided until you learn how to handle yourself

Using container as a cover against armed workers

Hotwiring a bulldozer, first time without any time-limit

Using one of your foes as a shield against enemy fire

Alright, a shotgun! You can collect weapons some enemies may drop

Sometimes, though very rarely, you'll control your husky to go where you cannot

Depending on cursor color (red/yellow/green), your shot will be more or less deadly and precise

Using your enemy as a shield may prove effective, but leaves you only one hand for shooting

Jack has friends at most interesting places

You got a dance striptease as tempting as possible to allow Jack to slip by unnoticed

Prisons aren't what they used to be, you can explore them quite freely

Taking on Tattoo and his men to steal the getaway map

This reporter couldn't've come in better time, just to prevent Jack getting a payback from the guards

Red alert is active, and it's time to get past some guards... well noticed

Giving some first-person covering fire from a chopper

Quickly press X and circle to hold your breath until the time runs out

You can bring Jack closer to the camera... looky, is that a graphic glitch or does he really have a scar

Fighting the special forces is harder as they all wear armour, so you may want to employ your martial arts skills

You can also call your dog to attack the enemy, in which case he'll bring you back the victim's weapon as well

One of the boss battles in a cargo plane... if he keeps up with this fire, he'll melt all the gold around as well

Beginning

Strip Bar

Disco Club

Jack saves a library from terrorists in the intro movie.

Autotarget (the red arrows) helps avoid the aiming problems that plague many 3rd person shooters.

"Dance the stripper", an early mini-game.

I guess it's true what they say about ex-cops being unpopular in prison.

Using corners as covers drastically increases your life expectancy.

Playing as Shadow, you sniff out bombs for Jack to defuse.

The bomb defusing mini game was designed for a game pad. Trying to play it with a keyboard can become quite difficult late in the game.

Low on life? Grab an enemy and use him as a human shield.

I'm all stiff from punching these guys out. Fortunately, I'm in a "massage" parlor.

Frequent cinematics and cut-scenes flesh out the story.

I'm in Chinatown with a pistol in each hand. Must be time for a slow motion dive.

Shadow not only tears out thugs throats, he'll also pick up their guns and carry them over to you. Good doggie!

Looks like I'm not the only one on a "roaring rampage of revenge".
