Vigilance (video game)

The single player campaign followed eight agents working for the counter-terrorist organization SION (Special Intelligence Operations Network). ==Gameplay==

The game combines first and third person perspective, allowing the player to control one of eight SION agents each with varied strengths and weaknesses. Aside from the basic single player mode, it also came with a support of play over LAN and Heat.net. ==Development==

The project took over two years and $2 million to create. The game was SegaSoft's first venture into 3D shooters. The designs for the player characters were intentionally generic and familiar, since the developers felt that when playing an action-based game on the Internet, gamers would want to immediately understand their selection of characters so that they could jump right in. The environments were created with off-the-shelf 3D software such as 3D Studio Max. The developers intended to make stealth a major aspect of the game, designing certain areas to be too difficult for players to fight their way through. ==Reception==

Vigilance was mostly met with mixed reviews. While GameSpot complained largely on slow access times requiring heavy resources from computers, the gameplay was praised for large variety of weapons at the time and moderately sized levels; the game was given a final score of 5/10. ==References==
