In other words...

Next time post in the right forum.

Well, that is pretty much it! I mean, if I put this in the 3D Shooter Forum, it would get maybe 5 replies! Com'n, seriously, it's sad, but most members just hit the GD and OT.

I'm getting it in a few minutes and will be sure to post impressions probably tomorrow. I'll probably be getting Hitman 2 tomorrow as well. Thank goodness for that salary raise last month!

I have it already.

Good graphics,Gameplay is some of the best to date, awesome co-op mode , great sound, all in all a fun game. I recommend it for sure. It's one of my favorites so far.


Although i have heard you can easily beat all 11 missions in 1 day.

Hope this isnt true:mad:

yea i like it too, coop is its strongest point by far. the game is kinda short though, 11 missions in one day will be no problem :( I like it though, controls take a little getting used too but it kicks ass imo.

I get it next week along with The Thing and Enclave :D

Cant wait for Raven Shield or Rogue Spear (one of them) for full on realistic tactical combat, 1 shot kills.

So far I am definitely impressed with this game with my only qualms being while running it seems it could be a little smoother. Other than that this game is WAY immersive. Lemme give an example of one of the cool things that happened while playing...


I was sneaking up around an enemy tank to try and place a timed mine and was VERY close to planting it when the tank spotted me and while its turret was turning to blow me to smithereens out of nowhere comes a rocket and destroys the tank before it destroys me, although I got hurt in the explosion. Thanks Conners, errr..

The computer controlled allies can really save your arse alot, haven't tried the game in co-op yet, should be fun though. By the way I'm playing the game on easy, but on hard I couldn't see beating the game in one day.

I got it yesterday. Only did the training and a bit of the first level, so I can't review it yet. From what I've seen so far (not much), I think it'll be a good game. The graphics aren't much, but that's ok with me. I like the way the game seems to have made squad commanding easier. I don't mind thinking when I'm playing a game, but I don't want to have to think too much, you know... But anyway, looks good so far, I'll post more impressions after I've had more experience.

Any of you guys playing on a wide screen? How does it look? Does it support the 16:9 format?

Personally I thought this was a great game. It requires you to do some thinking and is not just a run and gun game. The ai of your teammates is really good, they don't just run around and be cannon fodder, they actually help you out alot...

I like the fact that you can swap items and heal eachother....

The graphics are not beautiful but they are good.....The game does take some getting used to with the squad commands, but once you do you will be able to easily command your squad

The multiplayer is awesome! I've played the game with three people and it was great...You actually have to help eachother out and use tactics such as using your sniper for a spotter.....ex:

In one of the missions we had to destroy an AA tank but I was to far away to see it with my rocket launcher scope...so I had my friend which was the sniper to go to higher ground and spot the tank...then we used the meter in the scope and matched the distances that they show you in the scope...and I destroyed the tank.....and we stopped getting capped! It was great

This game is an awesome time...it is serious but not as serious as rainbow six and way more so than Halo (not that it's a bad thing!)
I definitely reccomend this game

I like it. I'm pretty far into the game right now. I agree that the graphics aren't all that, but they are good. It takes some time getting used to giving orders to your squad while you're doing something else. Like you are in a firefight and you want Conners with the SAW to get in a better position. But the game rocks and I like the fact it supports soundtracks. You want to know what's funny? If you play as the Americans and switch and play as the Brits, the characters are the same but the accents changed and the voice that gives you the introduction changes to an English accent. That's pretty funny.
