Ghost Recon 2 has an interesting storyline.
In the wake of one of North Korea's worst famines, an insidious North Korean
general influences the government to secretly
divert humanitarian aid to beef up its army, slowly gaining power in the
process. Fearful that North Korea is amassing huge quantities of military
weapons, the new Chinese regime eliminates arms sales to North Korea. In
response, the North Korean government initiates
secret overtures to Russia, who strikes a quiet alliance. In the midst of
another North Korean famine, food riots begin rocking the countryside, and the
rogue North Korean general assumes complete control of the army. Blaming China
for the famine, he begins charging north to seize Chinese territory with tacit
support from its new Russian ally. China moves to respond, but limits the level
of escalation, fearing open conflict with Russia and a possible nuclear
exchange. Instead, China officially agrees to a multinational force to
safeguard the China-North Korean border. Unofficially, the Ghosts and other
special forces in the Ghost Recon 2, go in. Their mission: cripple the North Korean threat and depose the rogue general.
