Rainbow Six: Rogue Spear on the GBA is... well, it's ambitious. They somehow crammed a full tactical FPS onto this tiny cartridge, and honestly? It kinda works. You're leading a counter-terrorism squad through tight corridors and open-air missions, planning routes and breaching doors like the console version—just with way more pixels.

The controls take some getting used to (good luck nailing headshots with that D-pad), but once you adjust, there's something satisfying about pulling off a clean hostage rescue between bus rides. The AI isn't dumb either—enemies actually flank and take cover instead of just standing there.

Don't expect the full PC experience, but for a portable version in 2002? It's impressive they got the tense, methodical gameplay to translate at all.
