This game has got some of the most amazing cut scene graphics I've ever seen! Honestly I thought for the first few cut scenes that I was looking at actors and not graphics, it was freaky. The games also got one of the best overall story lines I've ever seen in a game, and the way it's told is brilliant. The in game graphics aren't nearly as good as the cut scene's, but they're still above average, and the sound is nice and crisp on my Bose speakers. I'd be more then happy to give this game a 10 out of 10, unfortunately the game play is extremely frustrating, super glitchy, and sometimes just down right impossible to see. The game play is very realistic, the sounds of the bullets whizzing over head is spectacular, but when you empty three clips into a bad guy, and that guy turns around and kills you causing to have to reply the last 5 minutes of the game, well, you get the point. I can understand if it's a one time deal, but it happens ALL THE TIME in this game. Another thing is friendly AI is constantly getting in your way. Running into your field of fire, or pushing you into it. It can also be incredibly difficult to see at times, due to a combination of poor graphic quality, and just too much junk on going on during battle. I get that it adds to realism at times, but it's not like I'm actually down range. I'm sitting on my bloody couch trying to get lost in a game and have fun, not actually experience the stress of modern combat! If I could combine the smooth game play of Battlefield 3 with everything else from this game, I'd be a happy camper. Unfortunately I can't, so that's why this game got a 6. If you like war time first person shooters though, I'd say to give this game a shot.

Don't understand how users can say the story was ok or not great. Granted, if you play any game more than once, going through the cut scenes can be annoying. All games should have a "skip" feature for things that the user cannot control.

Having said that, if even 1% of this "inspired by real events" story is true, I truly can't understand how someone couldn't be riveted by the story. Hats off to all of those unknown and unsung heroes out there.

The game play itself was really good. I like the slide into cover and the peek/lean features which allow you to truly get from cover to cover more easily and see your enemy without exposing you're entire body.

Shooting, aiming, etc. were all good. Right up there with the best FPS's. I wish you had more control over the weapons you used in each mission. And for some reason I think you should always be allowed 2 weapons and a side arm. Not sure how practical that is in the real world, but you were really using 2 weapons in this game. You could pick up other weapons and use them, but if you tried to switch to one of "your" weapons, the weapon you picked up got dropped automatically. That was kind of weird but minor.

Good pickup from previous games but sometimes the missions can still be confusing. Would be good if they did a briefing feature so you could absorb more of the missions before being tossed into them.

Again, I think this is a great game and a great story. I enjoyed playing it, but the campaign was very short, even playing it on hard (my first time through) it was short. But all of the MOH games are pretty much like that.
