The prequel to Gamespy's 2002 PC Game of the Year, Contract Jack is a standalone action experience focused on giving PC action gamers what they want: More action, less stealth, and more robust multiplayer gameplay. Developed by one of the industry's elite developers, Monolith Productions, Contract Jack showcases the award-winning storytelling of Monolith in a new singleplayer campaign, and adds new multiplayer content as well as a suite of mod-making tools.


PREMISE

They call you Contract Jack-Just Another Contract Killer. You have a reputation for being able to solve problems, particularly in cases of questionable legality. But now you've got problems of your own.

The legendary chief assassin for H.A.R.M. organization has given you a mission-whether you want it or not. An Italian criminal organization has plans to take H.A.R.M. down and you must stop them. In doing so, you'll contend with the deadliest enemies you've seen and survive against ridiculous odds to complete your mission. Intense firefights and cataclysmic predicaments are constant in this exhilarating step forward for the No One Lives Forever franchise.


FEATURES

* Explore the dark side of the No One Lives Forever universe as John Jack, a rugged anti-hero in the services of H.A.R.M.

* Employ a deadly arsenal including the Bacalov Corrector, the prototype Cyclone Laser Rifle and powerful C4 charges.

* Ride into battle on vehicles with mounted weaponry.

* Compete online in Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, Demolition, and Doomsday modes.

* Create 'mods' and share them online using a complete suite of developer mod-making tools.

* Stand-alone engine does not require players to own NOLF1 or NOLF2.

* Play through the events occuring immediately after NOLF1 and trigger the events found in NOLF2.

I must say, this sounds like it could be good I loved the NOLF series, great sense of humor and all, though in NOLF2 enemies were autospawned, so after I cleared out a level they kept on appearing
