So, this game is a 5 year old game, and it shows. I picked it up to play through this and the second one before the new one came out.
This game looks like at one point it may have been great. But it does not stand the test of time.
The shooting mechanics are dated. The levels are beyond linear, and are quite rudimentary.
Now I dont want to give this game a low score just because it is older, but the fact that it doesnt stand the test of time definatly makes it a 6 for me

I only made it to the part where I was turning the power back on in northern command. That was as far as I was willing to give it. I know this was a launch title, but it sure didn't do anything to help the system. Visuals are pretty dated, even by late 2006 standards. Level design is mostly uninspired and dull. The same enemies come at you constantly. Music could have been ripped from any of a dozen WWII games, along with most of the sound. A couple of surprise moments and some mildly interesting guns are all it really has going for it. What ultimately made me stop was the brutal difficulty. Even on easy the baddies are hard to kill, will randomly appear behind you, and will hit you with an accuracy you only wish you had. Checkpoints are also ridiculously widely spaced. I'm sorry, but repeating the last three to four major engagements is NOT fun.

I cant believe I have owned this game from day one and forgot to write a review...this game is great. Graphics are very good. Voiceovers are good. The story is original and very engaging. After I beat the game the first time I had to go through it again to get more of the story line and understand it. The weapons are very original and fun to play with. After beating it once it unlocks more weapons for you to use the next time around. Its a bit tough to keep up with whats going on at a few points in the game but its not hard to put the pieces together later. The Co-Op is great. This game was enough fun that my wife even gave it a go...and she doesnt even like FPS games.
