Top critical reviews
The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.
“Great classic, i played the living CRaP out of this back in the day but now it just isn't compatible with newer PC's or OS's. I would recommend it if they re-vamped it for better performance but it just feels too sluggish right now.”
“I had Swat 2 when it was originally released--and even then the game play was poorly designed with janky controls. I didn't like it very much, but I did have a little fun toying around with it. I picked it up on sale, thinking I would toy…”
