The Gathering, a publishing division of Take Two Interactive, has now shipped Conflict: Desert Storm II: Back to Baghdad for the Nintendo GameCube. The title was released on other consoles late last year. The sequel sends players back to the sands of Iraq for more squad-based urban warfare, in which they will command and control a team of four soldiers. Each team member has specific skills and his own personality, and all four men must survive the missions in order to succeed. This game design also allows for full four-player cooperative gameplay, truly a rarity in gaming. It should be noted that, despite the subtitle, Back to Baghdad is based on events in the 1991 Gulf War, just like its predecessor.

Conflict: Desert Storm II is available now for GameCube, with a T for Teen rating and a suggested retail price of $49.99.
