Although not quite as bad as the hour mentioned, I completed this on hard in two hours.

There was so much wrong with this game it's unbelievable. This was released at christmas time too so it's not old. I don't know how developers live with themselves after actually being satisfied with the end product

I feel sorry for anyone who bought it

If you have ever played a good wartime FPS (Medal of Honour/the COD series) then prepare for the flipside of good.

This game is so bad I don't know where to begin.

The AI is abysmal, your squadmates get in the way or block your path; the enemy AI is laughable. The level design is boring (jungle or trenches all the way through the game). There isn't enough Ammo. It's way too easy, even on 'hard' mode, and you can finish the whole game in under 2 hours.

If you want to rent a terrible game for a quick and easy 500 GS Points, then knock yourself out, otherwise avoid like the plague.

This game is great for kids and the AI makes it easier even on hard, however when you play the game it just stops mid play to reload the next scene, it really is unbelieveable and if I had paid money for this I would be demanding a refund.

I dont know what it is with Microsoft but they are accepting games that arent even finished and polished not once but nearly every game requires updates, they just want the games out and we as idiots are happy with it.

Rated - 3 starsToo Short

p0rnsta from Colchester [Highly rated reviewer] , 10/10/2008

Decent game.

not the best war game out there. Nothing compared to hte usual medal of Honour, or COD or Brother in Arms, but worth the couple of hours.

found it a bit too short, wasnt too sure when it finished.

good history lesson

DEFJAMGAZ from Teignmouth [Highly rated reviewer] , 10/06/2008

ok so it wasnt as bad as i tought it would be its ok but really short took me under two hours on hard graphics 6/10 gameplay 3/10 framerate 1/10 the actuall story is like playing the darkness online pure lag. I also thought it was like a call of duty 2 expansion pack based on extra secondary/optional objectives as the levels last about 15 min a piece and proberly 5-7 enemys on screen at once. there is no large scale battles, SPOILER* your team mate calls an airstrike on an emty airfield SPOILER* there is no fell to the game it dosnt feel like a war game. The game was proberly rushed and the game engine wouldnt have washed on widows 95, that being said its a very easy 1000 gamerpoints if you have someone to boost with.
