I rate this game two Chicago's out of two.

More barbecues in the streets than at a football game.

The best part of this game, besides all the murder, is how it starts you out thinking "man this is so over-the-top it's gotta be satire, there's gonna be some twist coming up where it turns out that your CO was behind it all the whole time and you've been part of his plans with your reckless disregard for police procedure and human life" and then the game says nope and pulls a hard turn into earnest right-wing fantasy fiction where the human rights activist was actually a conniving criminal who fled to Mexico and now the President himself has authorized T-Zero to take back the streets with their automatic shotguns and helicopter gunships.
Someone has to take back the streets of Chicago, New York.

Oh yeah, I also wanted to point out since Lunethex et al are usually too busy laughing about other stuff how ridiculous the premise for these side missions are. "Nick, the Burners have kidnapped a VIP who's VITAL TO THE CITY'S SURVIVAL." Like there's this collection of men in business suits metaphysically attuned to the essence of Neo Olde Chicago and if they die the city dies with them.
We call them politicians for life. Get elected for 20+ years and they know how things work or should work at their whim. It also sounds like a maintaining of the status quo, so the situation gets more dire.

A shame the game doesn't keep track of dick shots like Psi-Ops. No wait, nut shots.

Notice how the mangled citizen who might be Wolverine, and carried out of the burning building, ended up with more health than you did.

After this, Nick went to DC to fight another gang wearing masks.

I thought there was a bad ending where one of the officers is mentioned leaving behind a family?

I just realized something-isn't the whole "Terrorist group masquerading as a legitimate corporation" thing basically what Cobra does? I think there was at least one GI Joe cartoon/comic that had that premise. If I'm remembering right,then maybe the sequel could be Urban Chaos:Rise of Cobra.
Extensive Enterprises was the "legal" front of Cobra in the early cartoons. How does it have Crimson Guard operate in their manner and headed by should be known terrorists, Xamot and Tomax? Good lawyers.
The more things change, the more they stay the same.
