Syphon Filter 2
"Hey man, I'm sick" - John Ramirez
Ramirez, appears along with the CBDC agents who accompany Logan to deliver Syphon Filter related evidence to the USA. En route, Agency jet fighters shoot down the carrier and disengage. In panic, Logan and the CBDC agents jump off the plane and parachute down, all landing on the Colorado mountain.
Ramirez is soon encountered further down the mountain with another agent fending off two Spook commando snipers, Logan provides assistance and dispatches both of them. Logan then orders the two to stay put until he scouts the mountain. Unknown to Ramirez and his fellow agent that Logan was shot down the mountain by Steven Archer's UH-30 Blackhawk helicopter, he and his fellow agent soon head down the mountain to meet yet another fellow agent, Ralph Thompson, soon after they are ambushed by more spook commandos. all three of the agents fight bravely, but are soon outnumbered and outgunned, one of the agents attempts to bolt down the mountain, but is presumably killed. Ramirez and Thompson are then both taken hostage.
Soon after, both agents are encountered by Logan who saves them from their captors, all three of the men then make it through an onslought of spook commandos and make to it to a highway bridge. Once again, Logan orders them to stay put and rendezvous with Jason Chance located near the highway. Suddenly, Archer appears once again in his helicopter and fires two missiles at the men, all then attempt to jump out of the way. Logan lands on the United pacific train, while the fate of both the CBDC agents remain unknown.
Ramirez is once again encountered in the Agency bio-labs as a prisoner and possibly infected with the Syphon Filter virus. Logan once again dispatches his captors and questions Ramirez, revealing Thompson had died from the bridge incident and only him and Chance survived. Logan tells him to stay put until he released Chance and completed his mission. Once Logan had finished his mission the Agency bio-labs had been put on high alert, Logan dashes through the complex to Ramirez's cell, finding Ramirez dead. Having been killed by Chance.
After certain events of Syphon Filter 2 and Chance's real motives have been revealed and Logan and Chance enter a showdown, Chance taunts Logan by saying: "You know, Logan. Ramirez died believing you were the traitor!"
Ramirez also appears in Multiplayer mode as a playable character.
Trivia
- Fans humorously speculate Ramirez was not infected by the Syphon Filter virus in his time at the Agency bio-labs, but instead caught a cold, as all the CBDC agents wore on the Colorado mountain were standard clothing. (consisting of a green cap, white T-shirt, green pants and dog tag.)
- If one looks closely at Ramirez's dead body in the Agency bio-labs (escape) mission, they will notice his head is facing the wrong way from his body, possibly having his neck twisted by Chance.
- If the player looks closely at Ramirez in any of the Colorado based missions, he will have a standard CBDC agent face. It is not until he is encountered at the Agency bio-labs, in which he has his own unique look.
- In the Multiplayer, on the character select screen. Ramirez will have his unique look, but is wearing his CBDC agent uniform.
