You can play as a team, play hot potato with a bomb, or try your hand at escalation mode (where players must pull off a kill with each of a pre-set selection of weapons). You can turn on Golden Gun mode for a good, old fashioned one hit death match, or turn on Paintball mode to add some color to your kills. With the ability to play both locally and online, you'll find a vast array of options for customizing your multiplayer sessions.

Thankfully, the game shines in multiplayer - which is easily the meat and potatoes of any FPS anyway.

While passable and still fun, Reloaded's single player experience failed to impress. Needless to say, it kills the illusion a bit once you pick up on it. If you exit then re-renter a room, you can sometimes see the same set of foes show up from the same place, saying the same thing over and over again until the loop randomly ends (which sometimes takes a while). A lot of these missions felt downright tedious due to the dodgy AI - which I found less noticeable during the story campaign, but glaringly obvious during MI6's continuous, single map assaults. MI6 helps extend the single player experience, but I honestly wasn't too impressed with it. The new MI6 mode compiles a collection of objective-based missions with an offensive, defensive or stealth focus. For those playing solo, the main story campaign offers plenty of fun, though it ends a little too quickly. The famous dam jump from the first level, for instance, pays due homage to its roots while throwing in a new twist that makes the whole affair feel fresh and unexpected. But while Reloaded greatly deviates from its source material, lovers of the original will appreciate how the game plays with your expectations, making for some interesting takes on classic scenes.

With an almost entirely new story, Reloaded won't exactly get your nostalgia engine running -, but you will find some well-placed nods to the N64 adventure (you can still shoot that one guard while he's on the can, for instance, but you can no longer snipe his hat off first).
