Trivia
The game's timeframe takes place from sometime in August 1999 to 8 September 1999. This can be figured out from the date/time info on the in-game PDA equipment

Goofs
Mara Aramov is Russian, but her last name should actually be "Aramova", because Russian surnames have masculine and feminine forms.

Quotes
Gabe Logan: Anton Girdeux, I hope Rhoemer's paying you enough to die for him!
Anton Girdeux: Gabriel Logan, are we the optimist? Look around Logan, this hall contains the mosaic, depicting the entire history of your country's wars and aggressions. We are about to make an addition to it.
Gabe Logan: I don't think so, Girdeux, it ends here.

Crazy credits
At the end of the credits, a man is shown looking out Markinson's office window with Pharcom boxes in the foreground. Mara Aramov walks up to him and whispers something in his ear, he replies "well done my dear, well done..." she then runs off laughing and the door is left open for a sequel

Alternate versions
Early drafts of Gabe and Lian were of having Gabe with buzz-cut army style haircut, and Lian with short red hair. These drafts however evolved into Gabe and Lian as we know them now and can be seen as a secret code on _Syphon Filter 2_ (2000).

impressive game

This game grips you when you first play it. You feel you are in a hi octane thriller in which you are the star. The game has stealth levels and mainly action levels and they are tough especially the helicopter boss level. I got stuck and helplessly tired of trying that i got the cheat code out.The exhibit level is stealth for a short while but the action begins soon after.The music for this level is top notch the change of tune in accordance to the action make the game play far more enjoyable and overall this game is brilliant but its has its moments of frustration. The cut scenes are excellent and movie type and some great acting from the characters. The pre boss dialogue of Anton Goudeux at the Washington memorial and the music that follows is gripping and its embedded in your consciouness for a long time afterwards. The handling is easy enough the control of the game is comfortable. Its a one path game so once completed you may take your time coming back to it.
