I never really felt the weapons power due to some terrible weapon sound effects. The micro Uzi’s sounded like my washing machine, I actually never used those guns mainly because I hated the noise they made. And they where fairly useless weapon on top of that.
For good weapon sound effect look no further than Day of Defeat, and the MG42 in particular. Whenever you hear that weapon starts up you fill your pant, it sounds truly terrifying and extraordinarily powerful. Also, the Colt Commando on Max Payne 2 and the Ak47 in Battlefield Vietnam are two other great sounding weapons.

I agree, I have never been bothered to complete the first level, I didn't pay for it so no major loss there!

You should give it another blast once you get through the first few levels it really starts to come into its own. Nothing too deep just good ole blasting fun
virtually everyone in the hong kong level used that weapon. it isn't wise to ditch them just for the usas 12. As its range is limited. The uzis were your medium range weapons.

Still a painfully rubbish weapon though, horrendous accuracy even when holding two. I think I remember using the shotgun for most of the level, the levels weren’t exactly big so I just got as close as I could and fired. And wasn't their an M60 somewhere? It's been a while since I played it so my memory on the game isn't that clear.
And the M60 was a crap weapon, but great at taking down the helicopter on the hospital roof and a good mid range weapon if you crouched. Not one I used much though.
