PatMan Picks Retro PC Games: Delta Force

These days anyone who sees me playing on XBL can tell you that I am a big shooter fan. COD, Halo, GOW, BF. You name it, if I can play online with friends or against random noobs, I will probably give it a shot. But I wasn’t always just a console shooter gamer.I did start off playing FPS, like most gamers my age,back on the PC. It started for me with DOOM and it went on from there. Delta Force is one PC game that I absolutely loved playing, both offline and online. For its time the open environments were pretty impressive and I liked the voices and squad feel to the game. It had a pretty solid single player mode, but it was its online multiplayer that had me totally addicted. I have to admit I was good at the game online and on top of being a good player I was one of the very early adaptors of cable internet. This gave me a speed advantage to go along with my shooting skills which more often than not allowed me to finish in first place at the end of most games. Delta Force must be the PC game that I have played the most amount of time online with. Hell, it might be up there with some of my X-box 360 shooters for time played online. The game had hilarious “taunts” that you could use after you killed someone. With a touch of a button you could say the words ” loooooser” and ” Its hard being THIS good”. For whatever reasons I never really got into the sequels that came after Delta Force, but to this day I still remember all those nights up late playing this classic PC title.
