just like Blood 2...and not much better

Well....it is a gory game with good graphics and nice AI, a good story blablabla....but....it is still somehow the same as Blood2 (also from Raven, what an accident). You are in a Subway (like in Blood2), you shoot the bad guys (like in Blood2), you have the same Weapons (like in Blood2) and well....the storyline...hehe...people who shoot others in the head do not need a big story behind it....it is anyway always the same story (there is a bad gang terrorizing the city; there are bad scientists making the most deadful weapon; there are aliens; who have to be shot at and so on). So what's the deal? You get a nice shooting game with good graphics and nice sounds and a gore level higher than in any other game. That's it. And it's not bad, but it is also not as great as the other reviewers describe it. I stick to Quake3 and/or Unreal Tournament. Sorry Raven, it is just a Shooting game in an Ocean full of shooting games.

An interesting, but fun game!

I would not used the word loved but thought this game was fun when I first played it. As I started to get deeper into it I started to enjoy seeing the blood and arms and head falling off. I would not recomend this game to anyone that cannot handle blood, guts, violence(an extreme amount), or dark games. The graphics, sound, speed, and everything else are good. It is just the blood and horror and guts. LOL I admit I will play this game occasionally when I go to my freinds but I would much rather play Ragedy Ann before i go to bed instead of being afraid I am going to get my leg blown off. If you are a parent, I am not but I know if i had a kid i would not want him playing this game that often if at all, please play this before buying it. Thank you for your time!

excellent game.......if you can get it to start

I played one board on this game and found that it was the most fun I have had killing people in a long time. The most graphic violence I have seen and all at the fingertips. When I completed the first level the game returns to desktop for no apparent reason. When I contacted the company for help they tell you it could be many of various things, I narrowed the problem down to the sound card and a very popular card at that because I tried the game on 2 different computers and both have the same card. Read the problems before buying the game and see if you have the proper sound and video cards. But it is a GREAT game!

a new revolution in action gaming

this game has it all. The action, the explosions, the weapons, the story, and of course...everyones favorite....the killing. the fact that the enemies die according to where you shoot them and with what weapon makes the gore quite enjoyable ......well......enuf with that...u want the basics... Graphics: wonderful Weapons: Look and sound great. in addition to that, the weapons have seconday modes, i.e. knife can be used to slash...or they can be thrown. you can also perform little stunts with the weapons, like twirling the shotgun, or wiping the blood off your knife Audio: you feel like you are there...even without surround sound Controls: can be a little difficult at first, to control all the buttons, but can be managable with a little practice Gore: lots of it, but..if you dont want your kids gettin at the gore, there is a parental lock on it. so...in short...this game is a must buy..it can be ranked with up there with great action titles like Half life or Quake .....'nuff said

Great game, but way to short!

Makes Rainbow6 and Kingpin look like Romper Room. The ULTIMATE stress reliever! If you like in your face blood, guts, and gore, this is your game. The weapons are great too. Playing online is even better. There is only one drawback though. I saved the world and all I got was a little over $800,000.00. Pretty cheesy for saving the world in my opinion. Bottom line is, buy this game. IT ROCKS!

A good Romp

Holy cow!! Intestines, intestines! Yes, this is a very very violent game. In fact, a lot of folks have dismissed this game as nothingness encapsulated in a lot of blood and gore. However, they're the ones missing all the fun.

Basically, this is a first person shooter with cool weapons, body-pin-pointed damage, and lots of levels. The multiplay is sheer joy, especially in the office levels that have lots of cubicles, corridors, and computers to destroy.

Nothing beats the pleasure of sniping at different parts of an enemy's body. Or how about the "lean" feature which lets you peer around a corner and tag an enemy. Good stuff.

Buy it, but not if you are of the faint of heart!

How we needed a great FPS this year

I've been rather dissopointed with the lack of post XMAS quality games. Thief 2 and Swat 3 have been worthy purchases and I was so glad the see the best FPS game of the year so far............SOF. The best FPS since Unreal Tournment some months ago this game is shades of Kingpin and Goldeneye. Unlike Kingpin though if you took away the gore this will still be a brilliant game. Its not the gore that makes it (altough its pervsersly enjoyable). The story line is good, took me about 12 hours gaming time to complete and the levels are VERY varied. From snow to desert to New York city it doesn't get boring. There are cut scenes rather than the free flowing storylines of Half LIfe and System Shock 2 but great weapons and great graphics/gameplay make this a worthy purchace. Excellant training to get you going, brilliant sniper rifle, abilty to lean round corners, ability to shoot and cut limbs of dead opponants. Not for the fiant hearted but brilliand none the less. Let me go shoot someone in the goolies then blow his head off one more time! - NO i am not a masacist!

Solid game

If you like the first person shooter genre you will like this game. The single player mode leaves a little to be desired (not as good as half lifes single player) but the mutliplayer is great. Doesn't run too bad on 56K either. Worth a look if your tired of Unreal, HalfLife and Quake.

The best game i ever played.

The graphics are great, It looks like it is real life action and it feels like you are there fighting the gang wars. There is a great choice of guns to choose from,the sniper rifle is my favorite weapon. There is also great sound effects. The game deserves to be the best game of the year.
