Now, I had two main complaints regarding the campaign. As for the campaign itself, the game does a good job of getting the player into the action quickly, and keeping the story interesting, well-paced, and, at times, suspenseful. This is perhaps the most unique and, well, fun components of Campaign mode, as the AI is remarkably well-done. The player is able to issue squad members various commands, such as defending certain locations, reviving fallen teammates, slicing doors, assuming sniping positions, etc. Each other commando has his own "personality," from comm chatter to prefered weapons and skill specialties.
In short, the player is backed up by the remainder of Delta squad, Commandos Fixer, Scorch and Sev. It's not difficult for anyone even vaguely familiar with FPSs to pick up quickly, and the AI elements are particularly interesting. The beginning of the game is essentially an in-level tutorial, starting the player off solo and gradually introducing them to the major mechanics of the game, most importantly that of squad AI command. In the campaign mode, players relive the Clone Wars from the perspective of RC-1138 "Boss," the leader of Delta squad. I'll try to break down the game as best as possible into subsections in this brief review. In terms of game mechanics, it is in many ways similar to your average FPS, although the addition of squad AI elements are what really make it stand out. Republic Commando, rather than trying to encompass the entire story line of Star Wars, follows the story of Delta Squad, a group of 4 Clone Commandos fighting for the Republic in the Clone Wars.
