 The year is 2027. The world as we know it is unraveling after fifteen years of economic meltdown and widespread global conflict over dwindling natural resources. A once proud America has fallen, her infrastructure shattered and military in disarray. Crippled by a devastating EMP strike, the USA is powerless to resist the ever expanding occupation of a savage, nuclear armed Greater Korean Republic. Abandoned by her former allies, the United States is a bleak landscape of walled towns and abandoned suburbs. This is a police state where high school stadiums have become detention centers, and shopping malls shelter armored attack vehicles. A once-free people are now prisoners- or collaborators- or revolutionaries.

 what a let down 25 Mar 2011Don’t get me wrong this game was promising enough to be up with there with my favourite shooters but the online services are either low or non existant. I have contacted THQ and they confirmed they released the game with only American servers which makes playing from the UK really bad. Great game if you don’t mind waiting 15mins to get in a game with a low signal.  Just average 21 Mar 2011The story is interesting but from the first scene the graphics are very poor (I went from Killzone 3 to this!), the gameplay is OK in an old fashioned kind of way - think pre-COD:MW. Multiplayer is the real reason I bought this and again it’s a let down, graphics OK but the maps are generally poor with the exception of the suburbs. I thought the snipers are over powered for the larger (ground control maps) although it did contain some good firefights for territory. Not BF:BC2 even with the heavy vehicles and not COD for the Deathmatch style games. I didn’t love MOD but the multuplayer was better, bottom line I’m back playing Killzone 3 multiplayer and still hitting BF:BC2 like a junkie to the needle! Great service from Simple Games. |
