Embarassing to own
Now I know: watered-down, more-generic-than-Halo version of Counter Strike with magic, and I've never even played CS (GASP!) but its obvious. Sure, its fun for the first few rounds, but it gets VERY boring after a while. Heres a round in a nutshell "Round Start! Buy weapons n' spells, run forward, teleport through wall, shoot guy, get shot, watch dude go up ladder with lame ass animation (Climbing ladder animation: Running animation slowed down. Brilliant *Sarcasm*) Respawn, Teleport through wall, get flag, get owned, respawn, teleport through wall, kill people and watch excessive amounts of blood spurt out of them, gain flag, get owned, and repeat". though your round will mostly play out in a different order, it still is the exact same thing over and over, not to mention Elves are the cheapest asses in the game because the can regenerate health when out of the action for a short time, now I havent played a true online match, but I dont need to play a full online match to know that everyone uses the elves or Trolls. Anyways, Im just gonna rate this game in a different fashion than I usually do and see if it works out.
Gameplay: 5 out of 10
As I've said before, the Gameplay is boring and repetitive after the first few rounds and you just wanna play something else after a while. And after an even longer time of playing it you will just be embarassed to even have it in your household. It's as generic as Halo and as boring as Test Drive Unlimited. If your going to play it, rent it first.
Sound: 7 out of 10
Nothin' special, though they could've used actuall voice acting for informing other players of your area's enemy density etc. rather than a female computer voice, can you imagine everyone in Starcraft having a female computer voice?
Controls: 7 out of 10
Once again, nothin' special, standard controls for a shooter, and if their not, then sue me because I haven't touched or even seen the game for over a month.
Graphics: 7 out of 10
Yet again, nothing special, It looks decent for a 360 game, who cares, It still sucks.
Overall, I really didn't like this game, it was boring and generic in my opinion, I won't be playing it unless I get REALLY bored and my copy of Orange Box, COD 4, Rainbow Six Vegas, Mass Effect, GRAW 2 and GTA IV (considering by the time I ever even lay a finger on the game again I'll be done GTA IV) are missing or borrowed, which has a possibility of, oh, I don't know, I'd say between ZERO and -100%. So really, I won't be playing this game ever again unless challenged, So I suggest getting Orange Box or Call Of Duty 4 if your looking for good shooters, though it is only 'bot 20 bucks now, so go ahead and buy it. but My personal opinion is that this game is a generic shooter with the Shadowrun licence slapped on it. And if you disagree, remember: it's only my personal opinion.
