3) Great looking PS2 game   [Rating: 5 out of 5]
This game is fantastic. It throws you into a frantic, frightening, and violent pace, we can all imagine WW2 was for soldiers. Scrambling from cover to cover, popping up to take a shot at a Nazi, gunning down planes in a flying fortress, battling in tank warfare, etc. I had a blast, literally, with this game. The sound on this game is excellent especially when piped through a stereo with a woofer, the sound of bombs, the groan of passing planes, the snap of a rifle, the crack of bullet impacts, the squeek of a rumbling tank's tracks -all add to the experience of this game. It's all a very satisfying experience to boot. Most 1st person shooters get boring, it's all shoot, move, shoot, move. This game throws curveballs at you the whole time, you'll be in a foxhole, gunning down Nazis while a tank rolls at you slowly, you want to shoot the Nazis, but your really worried about the tank and if it will stop or crush you and your friends. It's all very exciting, and I was impressed by the graphics comming out of my PS2.

4) good   [Rating: 4 out of 5]

5) Better than the 3rd Call Of Duty   [Rating: 5 out of 5]
If you do not care if the characters curse the name of god skip the first paaragraph. Okay first off I have to say that it does not matter if the soldiers curse the name of god. I mean what do you think the real soldiers in 1943-1945 were saying, " Holy cow kill that bad guy" or, " Kill that god damn Son of a bitch." You can choose. Now I know it matters if you are using the name of god in vein but face it, everyone has said it before, and will repeat it at least once more so face the facts guys. With that being said onto the review. Call Of Duty: Big Red One has some of the best graphics for a first person shooter I have seen in a while. When you shoot a Nazi, a blood cloud shoots out, or the amount of times you shoot a Nazi is the same amount that spills out. You get to know your squadmates and with every passing death of them, it is sadening. I found that to be a great quality in this game. It is not enough to make you cry but as you progress further into the game you will start to miss hearing their voice. The weapons are very authentic looking and dont lack anything, like recoil, muzzle flash, etc. The environments are well thought out and very detailed. The only flaw is that the game is too damn short. But the D-Day mission(Omaha Beach) was not a very authentic mission. I understand that the makers were trying to shake things up a bit but but they were just pushing the envelope creating a mission that wasnt authentic. It sucked. Other than the D-Day mission everything else was fine. Great game and well worth the money.
