Most squad-level tactics games are pretty serious, encouraging you to think fast and not get your men killed. Police Quest: SWAT 1 and 2 make all of them seem casual.

Police Quest: SWAT 1 is an interactive cinematic adventure and SWAT 2 is an isometric-view real-time tactics game. Initially released as part of the Police Quest series, SWAT eventually spawned a spin-off series of its own. Both games are very focused on following proper procedure - you can't just waltz in, shoot everything that moves and then sort out who's who. Even failing to call for the suspect to surrender before arresting him will look bad to the public and in your files. A Police officer's job is a tough one so don't expect these games to cut you any slack.
On the other hand, SWAT 2 lets you play on the other side - as the leader of a radical left-wing terrorist group. Don't think this means you can do whatever you want, though.
Now put your serious face on and discover how real a game can be.

Never tried SWAT 1, but SWAT 2, 3, and 4 are some of my favorite games, so this was an insta-buy.

Once again, GOG actively draining bank accounts around the world. Way to go GOG. You are the reason there are so many starving people in the world!

I also await Zork Nemesis.

I was only mildly curious but then I saw the TVs in one of the screenshots and we totally have exactly that model, so now I have an illogical desire to buy the game for that completely stupid non-reason. >.>

Hah! If only we could defeat those goody two-shoes with SCIENCE!

More to the point, I remember getting SWAT 1 with a Police Quest Collection I had back in the day and it left me foaming at the mouth. You BETTER pay attention to all those hand signal training and to the wind when you snipe, otherwise you're done for.

It's game over, man! GAME OVER!

I'll never forget that mission in SWAT where you have to arrest the crazed grandmother with a shotgun. Having played this as a kid, it scared the shit out of me.

I have absolutley no idea if these games are for me. Thus, erring on the side of caution, I will save my money.
