It ain't all that bad

I like this game. I read all the bad reviews it got and felt compelled to write. The graphics aren't bad, and the missions do draw you in. There are a few bugs to be sure...but I still don't know if it is me still learning the game, or just plain bad programming. I have invested about 15 hours playing the game, and the first few were not enjoyable, trying to learn the game. But once I did learn the basics I must admit that I am hooked. As far as how it would compare to Rainbow Six or Hidden and Dangerous...I can't really say, I have played the demo's for those two games and didn't find them head and shoulders above Spec Ops II. I have a feeling that any fan of either one of the former will be disappointed, simply because this does not measure up to the game they have already learned...kinda like me thinking the former games do not measure up to this one. It's all a matter of personal tastes. The learning curve is slow and it does take a while to get used to it, but your perseverence is paid off with a very engaging gaming experience. Anyways, that is my two cents worth...now if you will excuse me, I am going back on a night op in the jungles of Thailand using my starlight scope and looking for the bad guys....and doing my best to nuetralize them.

Simply the best game

This is the best game I've ever seen since I was born. Although it is not as realistic as R.B.6, the enemies are much clever, and you have more challenge, therfore more fun. You will probably be disapointed the first time, but it will turn out so good that you even have to go a doctor because you played it too much! If anyone who has R.B.6, this game isn't for you, so those of you, GET LOST, please.

I am a player of many games, and have the age and knowledge to expect more from a software engineer. This game was poorly put together, and rushed to the retail shelves. The 3d graphics are all pixelated and full of errors. If you think that its my system,nope, P3 500 two 12 mg Voodoo2 SLI. Don't go thinking that this is in the same catagory as Red Storms Rainbow Six series. Doesn't come close to that game. I wouldn't except this game as a gift.

Very Disappointing

I'm a huge fan of Hidden and Dangerous so when I saw Spec Ops II on the shelves with the Talonsoft and Take2 logos on the box, I thought I was going to get something similar. I was sorely disappointed. I could just as well given the money to a complete stranger on the street for all I got out of this game. A complete waste. 1 star is more than this game deserves. Rather than rehashing the specifics, just read the other critical reviews. My experience was the same.
