Simply the best shooter I have played. Realistic in only the right ways. True to life weaponry and gameplay that encourages skill rather than having the biggest gun. The icing on the cake is a progressive leveling system with loads of goodies for dedicated players.
Multiplayer is pretty fun, there are some new weapons, playing single player now gives you experience points which you use to get new equipment, playing co-op lets the other player control the two squad members as well... and that's pretty much all you can say about this game. Again, a good basic fps.
It just requires thought. If your gonna compare it why not compare it to the games that came out right around this one that were shooters. And theres a reason it's still 26.99 to buy...
it's a ton of fun! rainbow has come a long way sinse it first came out on the pc and transformed tremendously. it got great multy player, looks and feels great. the single player campine is lacking and gets repetitive.but it's fun but it's not for everyone.
