Soldier of fortune: Payback
A brilliant game.

If you like fps games with a LOT of gore and BRILIIANT graphics (some of the best i have seen for the xbox 360) then this is the game for you.

a continuing slide
For a start this has no pretense of being like any other modern shooter so stop the comparisons. But this is not a good thing its budget in every sense of the word. If you have played the othe soldier of fortune games then my title will make perfect sense, the first was brilliant the second was a bit shoddy but somewhat engrossing but this just slips further down the quality ladder. its not a massive slip from the 2nd game and some ways its better (graphics, smoother game play in general)but it just feels quite frankly retarded. yes its very gory and the first game capitalised on that while being fun at the same time, whereas this dosnt quite get there.

The weapon customisation and choice is very good, more games should be like this in terms of variety of weapons but thats where it ends. its fun for the first few levels but it then becomes very tedious to mow down the fully destructible fodder that is the enemy as there is no skill of any kind involved, (strafe and shoot and your done).

i wanted to like this and i tried hard to, i was looking forward to it but its just didnt cut it, its easy and short, worth a rental whene your done with any othe game but no more unless you can pick it up cheap. it wont annoy you that you spent money on it but it will remind you how and why other games are better and more worthy of your cash.

It' s the best
Many people bang on about how fantastic Call of Duty 4 is yes it's pretty good, but this is a proper game of mindless violence. For example if you have seen The Holy Grail by Monty Python you will probably remember the classic clip where Arthur King of The Britons if fighting the Black Knight. Just as Arthur dismembered the knight you can also do the same it this game, honestly when you shot both arms of a soldier and the blood is pouring out it is very funny. Another one is to blow a soldier head of clean with one shot. Definitely a game for adults and not for children.
Buy it it's a laugh.
