If you're familiar with that game, then the newly released versions on the Xbox and PlayStation 2 won't hold too many surprises. This game was actually released on the PC two years ago, where it received mixed reviews. In Black Hawk Down the game, you take the role of an infantry squad leader in Somalia, doing many of the same types of missions that the real US Rangers and Delta Force had to do.

The story of that operation has since been immortalized by a book and a Jerry Bruckheimer film. That helicopter crash and the subsequent rescue operations resulted in the deaths of 19 elite US soldiers, and all of it was followed by a pullout of US military personnel. The most infamous incident of that operation involved the downing of an American transport helicopter.

As the title suggests, the game's plot is based loosely around the United States' peacekeeping operations in the eastern African nation in the early 1990s.

Delta Force Black Hawk Down is an arcade-style shooter set in contemporary Somalia.
