    Didn't know much about this game until a buddy mentioned it to me last week. I have it since Saturday now and I have to say I'm pretty impressed by it.

    Didn't expect much, all I heard was that it was a Sandbox style WW2 game.
    I think its pretty good.
    I think it got mixed reviews from various critics, some say it was a dissapointment. I beg to differ though.

    Anyone else had a go at this? What ya think?

    i have only played if for a short while, its okay, nothing major!

    i rented it for the week, so that will do me :)

    I like it. It's quite rough in parts and the accents are atrocious but there's an awful lot to do if you can look past those things.

    I'd give it a solid 7/10 so far.

    It looks like to be a game i will rent rather than buy. There are no games out at the moment i have an urge to get, I have AC2 and MW2 so i dont know what to do with my days!!

    Finished the game yesterday and really liked it. Thought the accents where hilarious and some of the lines Sean says are excellent.

    The controls are kind of annoying, I hated the fact that if you climb a ladder or building he puts awy his gun, obviously, but when you get to the top you have to re-select the gun to equip it, many times I got to th top faced an enemy and went into the Brawl mode instead of taking aim and shooting.

    Listened to the joystiq podcast and they said he's so Irish when he walks he shits Lucky Charms. :)

    Think the game clock read about 14 hours when I finished it. There's alot of collectibles and stuff to do after the main story is done though.

    Rented it also, the trailers actually made this game look worse than it really is.
    The accent and dialogue is pretty humorous when not taken out of context like in the trailer.

    Favourite line so far "I'm not F**kin' British" :D

    Sean's accent really made me cringe at first. Having tolerated it for a while now I'm starting to find it quite amusing :D . Still say they could've gotten an Irish person to do the voice though.
    Love the way he cracks up when someone associates him with the British :pac:

    "I'm fcukin Irish!" :P

    Its pretty good, not gonna win GOTY or anything but its great fun to drive around Paris killing Nazis (although, when is Nazi killing not fun?!)

    A solid 7/10 from me and im only about 4 hours in.

    I would rent it if my local extravision wasnt a waste of a complex.. not 1 new game did they have to rent.

    Got this for Xmas, well an early Xmas present and started playing it tonight.

    Decent game so far, I'd be waiting to play it since it came out and to be honest, it's good so far.

    really under rated game this. can be bought for under a tenner now, well worth a look for people who enjoy single player sand box games


  • Registered Users Posts: 69 ✭✭FR.Ted Crilly


    Ya i have its very addictive but repetitive if your Irish it gives an extra kick, Hollywood Irish accent is very good and has fantastic smooth play... Its only down fall was its relase date clashed with COD Modern Warefare 2 which will send anything to the bin basket..enjoy it while it lasts i stepped up the difficulty to make it last but if you got it for a tenner id sail through it, Best part of the game for me is probably graveyard / castle scenes, its a keeper....
    (extra content unlocks full nudity in the Moulin Rouge) for 1.99 PlayStationStore. not sure about X⎕

    I enjoyed it. The Irish accent was extremely annoying though. Fairly easy game.
