SWAT 3's visuals, controls and interface may be outdated by todays standards, but the gameplay here is solid and holds its own, even two decades after its initial launch. The movement is crisp, shooting is snappy and AI ahead of its time. The aim of the game is to save all the civilians and to disable the terrorists (either lethally or non-lethally). This game is more realistic than your typical shooter however, so running and gunning is not an ideal solution and coming up with a tactical approach to completing the mission is very important. Throughout the game, you and your SWAT team will be called to multiple locations around Los Angeles including houses, stores, a garage, an air port, the LA convention center, TV broadcast studio, etc - so there's plenty of variety and each stage is rich with props and detail which only adds to the immersive atmosphere. Regarding running the game on anything newer than Windows XP, you'll likely need Dege's Voodoo 2 wrapper mod to ensure the game runs correctly. Just extract the download and place the contents in the game's root directory.
