Anyone play SWAT3?

Seeing how many people play CS on the forums, I was wondering if anyone owns or has played SWAT3. I haven't played CS, but both games are kind of similar in theme. Anyway, the WON.net servers frequently suffer from lag (to be fair I'm on a 56K connection though), and I was wondering if there was any other option.

Up until a couple of months ago I played SWAT 3 quite heavily. But I mostly played in single player mode. That L.A. Subway add-on mission has got to be my favourite so far.

I downloaded the subway mission last night and have been playing it today. I bought the game a couple months ago and got through a career in single player, but last week I 'rediscovered' it after downloading the multiplayer upgrade. Now I play it all day and can't stop. The co-op missions are really interesting, unlike other fast-paced FPS games, this one forces you to take your time and check a room out before entering, and to rely on your teammates. If they fixed the lag problem the game would be perfect.

I actually prefer it too. CS is mindless fun in comparison although both require different sets of strategies. SWAT 3 is far more realistic with the exception of the lack of recoil (don't think there's much if any).
