Summary: Realism combined with graphic violence
Review: If you manage to make it past all of the "mature audiences" warnings, you'll find an absorbing, heart-pounding and altogether impressive game. Not for the faint of heart, there hasn't been a shooter that's made me afraid to turn corners like this since Wolfenstein 3D.

Summary: Soldier of Fortune
Review: It is one of the most primitive fpc games in a while. The enemies are as dumb as bricks, running straight toward you every time firing at you. The graphics are no where close to current standards more like the standard of the old Duke Nukem 3D game. The weaponfire is the most unrealistic of any fpc I have played(that's quite a few). Even the gore is fake looking and really unnecessary if you ask me. Don't waste your money on this game unless you need something to go under the leg of a table to balance it or something. This game is misrepresented by it's description as it says you are a cia agent using stealth and strategy when all you do is run and shoot the whole time. Avoid this game like the plague.

Summary: phat game
Review: it's a sweat game to play! it is a must have for any people who love first-person shooters. If you shoot the guys in the arm then their arm will fall off and then they will still come after you. But it is not for anyone under 14 cause of the graphic content!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Soldier of Fortune lives up to...
Review: its expectations as a great action game.

The online multiplayer game rocks, but I gave it a 4 only because of the maps. I think they are way too full of 'furniture' and fixings that really don't have a place and tend to get in the way of the action.

It is a fun challenge however to learn to use the grenades properly and I feel that there is a certain amount of skill needed to be competitive with this game online.

I recommend it.

Summary: Flawed and entertaining.
Review: SOF is an oddity in modern gaming. While most games try to cut it by having a deep story, cutting edge graphics, realistic game play or even complex game play, SOF is none of these and for that it is a good ride.

First I would like to point out that the game has taken a lot of flak for it's violent content. It is true that there is gore in the game, but any seasoned Quake, UT, or Half-Life players (If you have never played those you should not be reading this) will find it's content little more than another day at the office. Yes you can blow off limbs or blow open a guy's guts. However that graphics are so dated that this seems unrealistic, do our guts really look like pvc tubes?

Another thing, the graphics are OLD. While a lot of the Q2 engine code has been updated, it still does not escape it's basic thresholds. The level design however it impressive at times. The models also are not too shabby considering the engines' age. It even uses alpha channels. Even though some of the shiny textures on objects I would not think to be actually shiny. It is a shame really that one trip outdoors tells you that the engine was around before most people today had the internet.

There are some quirks in the game desing. Each time the game boots up it warns you that this graphicly depicks real world combat. Yet the game fails to be realistic, it's almost a joke. Things can stick to walls (that are not supposed too), grenades have fixed trajectories, tanks can be taken out with sinper rifles, not matter how many missles you fire at a door it will still stand, the enemies lack an unterstanding of doors and grenades and the weapons have only a vague likeness to real world counterparts. Also you earn money, but to what with it? It is never a factor in buying weapons. For that matter you will pick up weapons and ammo in the game, it doesn't matter what you picked out before hand. Also stealth is supposed to matter, the AI is so basic it does not.

That said, this is a very enertaining game. Worth it if you like just some good old mindless bloody action to rot your brain on.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: What more could you ask for???????
Review: Soldier of Fortune gold edition is even better than the original. It has the same levels but has a WAY better multiplayer mode with all new games such as a standard deathmatch, assasin, arsenal, capture the flag and much more. This is a must get for anyone who likes first-person shooters. This game is practicly perfect, only its not really for the kids and eat on an empty stomach.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: WOW!
Review: Soldier of Fortune is and will always be known and remembered as one of the greatest games of all times...but this one with the new additions is even better than the original.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: You Must Get This
Review: The best shoot em up to date. This game has it all, weapons, excellent interaction, gameplay and some great missions.The skill level increases as the game progresses, giving an addictive feel. Brutal and gory this is not for children, but should keep Quake fans busy for hours if not days. If you want to buy one game this year, make it this one.
