Viva la Revolution, Novalogic!

WOW! What a great concept! (I hope I don't sound sarcastic, this is coming from the heart) Novalogic finally took a game based on the Black Hawk Down engine and gave it driveable vehicles, fully customizeable players, weapons, accessories, and ammo, and most importantly, endless online possibilities. This game was great. I've never had so much fun desigining a charcter. The gameplay is similar to Delta Force: Black Hawk Down, so if you've played that, imagine that game, but multiplied by ten. The aiming, the running, the hiding, the shooting, the flying/driving, and the perfect ambushes; this game makes for a memorable experience. It's a bit laggy on lower-end systems due to graphics requirements (the game's a MONSTER) but if you have at least a gig of ram, 2.8Ghz Processor, and a good video card (256mb at least, if you only have basic PCI slots, you're barely cutting it. Those with PCI Express or AGP slots, go for 512mb vid cards, or 768mb vid cards). the online play was fun when I wasn't getting kicked for #%@&ing PunkBuster errors. Other than that, the gameplay was mighty fun. If you don't have a good enough system, stick to Delta Force Black Hawk Down. It's almost as good. A Battlefield 1942 Killer? Hardly. Battlefield isn't such a performance hog, and will always remain fun. Only high-end supersoldiers need apply.
