It's a pretty long campaign, and some of the missions can take 30+minutes if you take a 'professional' approach to them. The story isn't amazing, but it isn't bad. It keeps the game moving forward and introduces you to some varied and interesting locations and situations.

It's worth at least a rent for the SP.

Other than some ugly textures here and there, and some occasionally ugly animation, the game is fun and I find myself having more fun with this than I did with both GRAW titles.

I favor stealth and diversionary tactics over frontal engagements. I play with a mic unless I've got family around.

The Mp in Future Soldier feels like GR2's MP, and that's a good thing. That's when the GR series went 3rd-person perspective and the gameplay of the first and its expansions mostly remained. Other than the near-futuristic gear and the cover system it plays just like that. The biggest thing about the MP is that teamwork is stressed to the point of losing ties if your team wasn't as cohesive as your opponents. Amazing experience so far!

The SP is really fun, especially when you see that 100/100 Ghost Rating on Elite, though it could be harder. I love all the secondary tactical objectives and challenges too. I haven't played Co-op yet, but expect it to be even more of a blast. Guerrilla Mode is pretty cool too, though I've only gone 1 solo round.

It has enough excitement and interesting firefight scenarios to warrant a few playthroughs to find all the collectables and golden gun parts, and to play through the 2 additonal difficulty modes. There is also Arcade, which I haven't played yet.

No, no financial info that I know of, and I already contacted my bank, just in case.

Good news is I got over $300 in credit at Gamestop for my old games to use in the future. Since most of the good future titles are already paid for I won't be using any of it for awhile.

Thanks for the compliment. I liked it too.

So, I have to get a new gamertag! YAY!

So, my email got hacked or something and there is nothing I can do but get a new one. I called XBox customer support and I explained that I had tried everything to regain my account, but they told me the same thing over and over. So, with all the hard work and money I invested into my games and achievements, and everything else - I must say goodbye. I just feel like I got robbed. With all the phishing and other things going on I really want to find one of these punks and ______________! I'll let you guys imagine what I wanted to put in there.

Anyway, about a hour ago you probably would have seen profanity laden rants and raves. I'm past that now, and will be trading in all of my games that I know I will never again play or want to bother getting to where I was in them. It sucks, but I just don't have the time anymore to devote that much hardcore time.

I'm keeping my Halo games, my Call of Duty games, and a few others.

Well, I recently medically retired from the Army and am going to be getting divorced. I've got plenty of free time on my hands until I begin school, so I figured I'd get to kick back and relax for a bit. I partake in other activities besides gaming, and I enjoy doing those things. However, there is something awesome about video games that used to just takes me away. Always had been that way since I played Super Mario Bros..

Your advice did help me along with my thought process. I lost my super nice HDTV and surround sounds when my wife and I got separated. So, I'm thinking I'll need to replace those because I'm not ever going to see them again. Once I got things in place, I'm gonna have to murder these fools on some COD WaW and Halo 3:ODST so they can get out of my space. I had to baby them before, because I did this, so it only seems about time now.

I'm trading in my Guitar Hero games, because I am DONE with that crap.

Seriously guys, I was at wits end. Thanks.

So, for the past 2 weeks I have been trying really hard to enjoy gaming, but nothing is working. I've played the latest great games and I've even gone to some of the originals. Even with Halo 3:ODST, I just don't feel good playing games anymore. It might be because I just don't have the time to devote to online multiplayer anymore, and the people I live with always make me feel guilty for taking a little time out of the day to play a 1 player game. You know, the kind of people that you know when they show up you might as well save and quit?

I've been stuck playing Rock Band and Guitar Hero all the time now, and when I can play a decent shooter like Halo 3 or Rainbow Six: Vegas 2 it is stupid split screen. Only because they have split-screen. I guess I don't have patience for having to baby people through games or dumb myself down so they can get a kill ever now and then.

It's got me in a gaming depression. Any tips from the community about what I should do? I'm about to just say screw civility and hook up my XBox 360 to a little TV and lock myself in a room for awhile. I've got tons of games, and it all seems so wasted now. Damn, I still need to beat Mass Effect and Bioshock. Don't have much time until the sequels.

It probably stopped coming with HDMI when Microsoft decided making you pay for them separately was better for profits.
