Summary: About time....
Review: Totally amazing demo... as I get older, fewer and fewer games can hold my attention even close to the way the DEMO has for this one. Ive played it over and over and over and over, and I keep playing it, just to try different things. I cant WAIT for the full version. I am sure my social life will suffer as will my sleep, because I intend to play this to death. Graphicvs: Amazing. Sound: As good as possible Gameplay (DEMO): Amazing Replayability: Amazing. In short, if you buy one game this year, it should be this one. Back to the good ole days of fighting the ruskies in Europe. I can see add-on campaigns for other parts of the world as well... KEEP IT UP CODEMASTERS...

Summary: ... Served In The Armed Forces
Review: This is the MOST REALISTIC COMBAT SIMULATOR ever made. I spent 6 months in the Persian Gulf with a Marine Rifle Battalion, we were the 3rd Unit to enter Kuwait City, and contrary to CNN and all the critics, it was pretty hairy. This game comes as close as a computer game can come to pure realism. There are 40+ add-on missions to the demo, which allow you to explore all facets of the Simulator. From Armored Combat to Squad Tactics.

As for James Cope, you do know you can remap all the controls brainiac. No need for Star removal.

THIS GAME RULES!!Semper Fi

Summary: THE DEMO IS AWESOME ALONE!!
Review: I was surprised by the inteeligent AI, it is better than half-life. When pinned they will call support to flank you. Also, you can fly and drive many different vehicles, 3 in the demo. In the demo you must ambush a group of Russians (why are they always the bad guy?). Two minutes ago I figured out that there are 3 outcomes (that I know of...) 1. blitz them and its over in 5 minutes 2. attack slowly and beat everyone before moving on (this leads to enemy heavy armor coming and this forces you to take an ill fated helecopter trip.) 3. wait until the armor comes and then do a fighting retreat back to your base. Remember that this is just the DEMO!! I replayed it over and over and i am still having fun with it. There are different classes for enemy and friendly AI alike. If you are injured you can call a medic and if you are pinned down you can hide and call for support. My favorite thing to do is steal a jeep from the enemy drive over a few enemies and then drive 5-10 meters in front of a group of enemies. I swerve the car so I can get out and hide on one side. Then I shoot and throw grenades over the car. It is so much fun! You must also rely on unit cohesion to reach certain objectives. Basically, this will probably be the best FPS and strategy game for a long time, BUY IT!

Summary: Operation Flashpoint DEMO review
Review: At the time of this review, the full game hasn't come out yet, but you can get the 63 Meg zipped demo download from the Adrenaline Vault. Since this is a review of the demo, take everything I say with a grain of salt, but at least you'll have a pretty good idea of how the game works, etc. That being said, here's my breakdown: GRAPHICS: The graphics in this game are AWESOME. Everything from the camoflauge to the terrain and character faces. One thing that I really like is that fact that there are SHADOWS for ALL characters. And best of all, you can actually see your feet when riding in the Jeep. It's a small detail, but I've been dying for a FPS-type game to do that. SOUND: To be honest, nothing truly great sound-wise jumped out at me. Just your typical gun-firing sounds, etc. The music is a different story. I actually wouldn't mind downloading an MP3 file of the music--it's that good. GAMEPLAY: This is a MULTI-engine game. Part FPS, part driving sim, part flying sim. In the demo you can drive a jeep, ride in the back of a truck, and run around in FP. Fortunately, the controls are displayed in the upper-left corner. They're pretty basic, nothing outrageous. Driving is just about as easy as walking around, which is good. ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE: Shoot your own guy, and the others open fire on you. As for the bad guys, one or two shots (and direct hits) from them and you're down. OTHER: You will need DirectX 8 for this demo--and the game itself. But it is worth the download if you don't have it already. I took off one star because it is quite different from normal FPS's and I felt that the controls could have been SLIGHTLY better. Maybe they are in the full version? Anyway, I HIGHLY recommend that you try out this once-in-a-lifetime gaming experience.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Game
Review: Great game seriously... a really in-depth, versitle, realistic game of it's time. Seriously overlooked by many Operation Flashpoint deserves 10 stars if possible. Great game!
