    THIS REVIEW CONTAINS SPOILERS Show review anywayHide

    Ive got to be honest Im not a big Fan of the over the shoulder FPS but I stuck with this through to the end and although the story is ok its not great and doesnt make you want to keep playing over and over to find out where the story goes

    The graphics are ok and sometimes really good, like when you shoot out a window and sand rushes in to consume all those bad guys shooting at you, You can also issue commands to your to comrades but thses are limited to, Shoot him, Flash Bang and recover.

    Gameplay is where I feel it got on my nerves, The aiming system was ok, blind fire was no use what so ever and the cover system had me shouting abuse at my tv!! Like when I get up to a corner and try to take cover and instead of doing that he jumps round the corner straight into enemy fire!!!

    There is also intel to collect that gives some sound bites and although I only missed 3 I didnt really wann replay levels to collect them for the achievement.

  • An antidote to war games.

    Rated - 5.0 stars

    Thought provoking and realistic depiction of the effects of war on those that fight it. Unusually compelling story and characters designed to make players question why they are playing this game and what the morality of their actions is.

    Mechanistically similar to Gears of War with faults in it's controls but a true achievement in the story and atmosphere.

    Thoroughly recommended but not an easy or necessarily enjoyable experience.

  • Samey, repeated,shooter, repetative, stupid story

    Rated - 1.0 star

    unforgettable, only due to its repetitiveness, over and over again the same bots approach but every now and then you get a different background to shoot them in front of.

    in this day and age witht he amount of money spent on production i refuse to make exceptions. this is a 1990`s game, with graphics belonging 5 years ago.

    nothing groundbreaking as promised, nothing you have not seen before in any shooter....

    story is taken from a variety of made for tv movies and gets more and more stupid as the game goes on.

    three soldiers lost in Dubai, find a whole battalion of us troops have turned traitor, they decide to take them all on by themselves lol...the plot is for a 10 year old, yet the sticker says 18+

    if you are of below averege intelegence and have not even been able to read this review, then..rent it.

    if not, seriously, avoid it. its not worth a rent.
