    Well, I finished it. Some parts of it are a lot of fun then some parts drag, most of it. The game could have been so much better. Say if it were a bit more realistic and without the stupid monsters. What is with these red dots anyways? When you shoot 1000 bullets into folk, they should come apart, not little red dots. I blow ten clips into a soldier and they are still intact. That is no fun whatsoever. I want to mutilate the corpses, tear limbs and blow heads off. Then I have these village flattening weapons and I meet monsters armed with just a lame rocket launcher and it takes about 20 god damned rockets to kill them. I mean c'mon.

    Well, there is screw all else to play and it is better then anything else out right now so maybe it is worth a go but it is certainly nothing special.

    Has anyone else played it, what did you think?

    I haven't played it, but I read a pretty enthusiastic review of it. Apparently the graphics are the prettiest on the PC at the moment.

    Sure, they are good graphics but nothing spectacular.

    I've completed it and I was thrilled. no it aint Solder of Fortune where limbs come apart. yet you can kick a barrel over the cliff having it hit the guys down below thus killing them. you have your sound sensitive binoculars to zoom in on your target. You can shoot of chains so bridges fall apart. or to set the boat into see. And yes the graphics are stunning, you need a ultra great computer though if you want everything maxed out. all in all great game!
