INFORMATION
Soldier of Fortune 2 Double Helix is a video game created by
Raven Software a sequel to Soldier of Fortune. It was developed using the Quake
3 Team Arena engine. Once again, Raven hired John Mullins to act as a
consultant on the game. Based on comments and criticisms of the original game,
Raven Software developed Soldier of Fortune 2 to be a more “realistic” game,
with tactical shooters like Operation Flashpoint Cold War Crisis and Tom
Clancy’s Rainbow Six as inspirations rather than Quake. A sequel titled Soldier
of Fortune: Payback, made by Cauldron HQ was released for Microsoft Windows,
PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in 2007. The theme of the sequel is germ warfare, as
the mercenary Mullins and his new partner Madeline Taylor travel to Colombia to
investigate a viral outbreak in a small town, only to link it to a shadowy
organization called Prometheus. The virus, called Romulus, is followed by a
computer virus called Remus which is programmed to delete files on any computer
in the world, in this case, files relating to Prometheus and Romulus, so an
anti-virus cannot be formulated. Prometheus then plans to blackmail the G8
countries at a summit in Switzerland for billions of dollars. It is revealed
throughout the course of the game that a mole inside The Shop may be feeding
information to the terrorists. John Mullins Born and raised in Southwest
Oklahoma, Mullins served three tours in Vietnam, earning three Purple Hearts.
He was also a member of the controversial Phoenix Program group created to
assassinate high ranking Vietcong officers. Mullins retired from the military
to become a “consultant”, or mercenary, 12 years ago. He now takes jobs from
the United Nations anti-terrorist group called The Shop. With a medium build,
Mullins boasts strength and speed that few men possess. John Mullins is voiced

partner, Hawk, The Shop looked long and hard for a suitable match to John’s can

and biological weapons. Madeleine Taylor is voiced by Iris Bahr. Sam Gladstone
