Once you got past the sheer grislyness of watching the top of someone's head fly clear off their frame, you began to realize just how impressive the point model was for characters in SoF. While you won't be able to drive vehicles in the game, you'll have a fair amount of other people's expensive toys to destroy as you progress through the game. Environments will be even more interactive than before, with certain sections of the game putting you in helicopters, trucks, and other vehicles, manning a mounted weapon and fending off foes.

While the team doesn't want to reveal too much about the plot at this point, the sequel will see the return of John Mullin, Madeline Taylor and Sam Gladstone from the first game, and a progression of the story-based gameplay of the first SoF featuring even more surprises and twists. It's up to you and your team to save the world from Hoof & Mouth & Ebola Black Tar Heroin. The military and governments of the world may have plans, but you've been paid to get results.

Are you ready? The main plot in SoFII involves a new terrorist organization that has developed a deadly virus, and is threatening to use it on the innocent unless terms are met. Developed once again by Raven, the team promises to deliver another journey into the minds and trigger fingers of paid mercenaries, with an even greater emphasis on realism and attention to grisly detail.
