Unmarked spoilers below!


  • The second mission with the stalker and abductor of women, where you find a disturbing maze-y dungeon straight out of Saw. When you open the door where the second hostage is located, you're immediately greeted by a broken mannequin, sitting there. About the only respite is how there is only one suspect, the abductor himself, though a random Gang Banger might exist.
  • The Carrols Street mission, where you investigate an apartment which is the hideout of Children of Tarrone, a crazy apocalyptic cult. The whole place is genuinely creepy, especially at the end, where you enter the basement of the dilapidated apartment building belonging to the cultists. It turns out they willingly killed their own children and buried them there, adding to that, it is revealed that Andrew Tarone did this in explicit anticipation of the authorities finding them, doing it as one last middle finger.
  • Not to mention in St. Michael's Hospital which was invaded by an unidentified but trained armed militia attempting to kill a South Korean diplomat. One of the rooms of the hospital's children's section (yes, they have a children's section in this game) had birthday decorations like balloons and banners on the walls. However, although the beds are abandoned, the walls are splattered with blood, and there will almost invariably be terrorists hiding in that room. And, as according to the briefing, the elite soldiers had slaughtered everyone they came across in the hospital, one can only assume the worst for those children. Somewhat fortunately, Hide Your Children is still in effect. However the hospital staff aren't as lucky as most of them are reported DOA.
