Have the PC version, and it''s pretty intense. I prefer it to CoD and MoH, much tougher as there''s no reticle when firing from the hip. It seems to simulate what instinctive shooting is like, which is great because that''s what most firefights were and are.

The AI is a bit wonky at times but overall I love it. Play with headphones and you''ll rediscover some serious pucker factor when those 42''s open up on you...

Have a good one.

You can turn one on in the options.

The weapons are bugging me a bit because there is a great deal of sway as well as a very wide cone of fire. I didn''t realize that before they landed, the Airborne bored out their rifle barrels a couple of tenths and then had a few snorts of Ol'' Granddad.

Yep, good points. Trying to shoot after running for even a hundred meters can make a poor marksman out of a great one.

I wanted it for X-Box, but was overruled by Swampy Jr.
We now have it for the PC.

Edit: Welcome to the boards, Brill.

I thought BiA was okay but the loading times really killed it for me. Turn a corner, machine gun nest mows you down instantly, go to reload, wait about a minute, and repeat. I never made it to the later game (Chapter 7 was as far as I got) but I was impressed with the early game until it became the same old tactics over and over. I might pick it up again at a later date but I''m having way too much fun with Ghost Recon 2 right now.

Oh man.. its out for PC already? where have I been.. sheesh. For some reason thought it was few more weeks.

As for OFP.. there''s an OFP 2 in the works. There''s little to no info available about it yet, but I believe it''s going to be a Vietnam era game.

I have the Xbox Version and basically bought it because of reviews, friends recommendations and an abbundance of trade in credit at Gamerush.

Multiplayer is a blast...no co-op though

This isn''t a FPS, it is a puzzle game. I call it a puzzle game because the levels are designed to have a particular way to overcome obstacles. You can shoot all day at a guy on an MG, but there is a magic wall that protects him from fire that isn''t on a flank. You must use the suppress and fire method, no other solutions are acceptable. Even with a sniper rifle, an enemy''s forehead sticking up over the fence is invulnerable until he decides to pop up completely. Every soldier takes two hits to kill with rifle shots, no matter that you shot him in the face with a .30-06 round. A couple of times I got up ahead of where I was supposed to be, and it spawned enemies right behind me - in one case at a wall out in a field where I had just cleared and was advancing from! You cannot jump anything you are not supposed to jump, even a broken fence that my four-year-old could step over.

You learn your way through a level by experience, which is why the long load times and infrequent save points are all the more aggravating. I wouldn''t recommend this game if you are expecting something like MoHAA or Call of Duty. If you liked Full Spectrum Warrior better than those, then go ahead.

It''s a good game Grumpicus but Supertanker really explains the gameplay perfectly. The early part of the game I played was extremely linear and the invisible wall effect is quite annoying. There were times I''d toss a grenade perfectly into a machine gun nest and the bad guys would still be alive when it went off. If you don''t flank them you can''t kill them. And like Supertanker mentions, it''s really a game of trial & error trying to figure out what strategy will get you to the next section of combat and staring at the Loading screen a lot when you die.

I''d say for $30 it''s a good buy but it isn''t a traditional FPS and you can''t play it like one.
