What Gamespot Users have to say about Soldier of Fortune: Payback
-
Rating:4
About as much fun as blunt force trauma to the head!
What where they thinking? This is an insult to the Soldier of Fortune franchise and to gamers everywhere. Payback screams "budget title" from the first heavily scripted un-imaginative gun fight until, an hour later, you ... Read Full Review

Soldier of Fortune:Payback has some stuff going for it.
Soldier of Fortune:Payback is a very vanilla shooter which means very straight forward. This game has it's moments like the intense blood and gore (which you can dramaticly tone down with a filter) and customisable weapo... Read Full Review

I do not usually get put off by violence in games but...
This game would have been a big hit circa 1997. It is a linear run 'n' gun affair which requires little skill or thought. Infact I would go as far as to say thinking is detrimental to progession in payback, everytime I... Read Full Review

I personally havent played this game.
I believe that the fun rating should be added to the review process and be performed by a group of 5-10 people of different styles of play and then give the average total of scores out of ten. The total amount of bodies ... Read Full Review

Misses the mark. Redundant levels, unrealistic shooting. Corny dialogue, humorous gore. Scenery is good, nice arsenal.
Not a great shooter. It had potential. It was my first SOF game, and I was disappointed. It started off decent, but quickly spiraled downward. On the first level, I found myself wondering what I was supposed to do next o... Read Full Review

Beautiful graphics, Beautiful gore, not much else…

Buggy but MAD FUN!!!
I don't understand why people gave it such low scores......sure there were some bugs compared to COD4/Crysis etc but this is totally different. Payback is like an unlimited play arcade game where you can just go in and r... Read Full Review

Fun While It Lasts
SOF: Payback is the new game in the gory series of FPS games. Plot: 4/10-Cliche, plot with boring characters. Nothing to be interested in or talk about. Everything else makes up for it though. Gameplay: 9/10-Very f... Read Full Review
