This game was disappointing in one way only and that is that I wasn't able to install it as I like which is as a part of my portable cd library on my notebook. I can't carry around hundreds of cds and I won't. I buy lots of games and it is strange that some companies have a mental problem with understanding selling, buying, and ownership. I personally won't be purchasing any UBIsoft games that include Starforce protection in the future. It isn't because it messes up my computer. I didn't notice anything but when a company offers no alternative but having a cd in the drive it really makes my life more difficult and I just don't have time for the 1% of companies who don't respect their customers enough to offer them a reasonable alternative to draconian drm. IDSoftware has never seen the need to use this approach and I suppose that is how one differentiates a high roller from a wanta-be. There is one simple fact, you make good games and give consumers what they desire and they reward you. We wouldn't purchase anything at Wal-Mart if they slapped handcuffs on you at the door as a precaution to prevent theft and it should be seen as no different with the media and software vendors. It is insulting and it is not becoming. I doubt they can prove it pays off because if anything it guarantees their mediocre game will face the trash bin and the discount rack.

The game was nice for the few minutes I bothered playing it then I removed the cd and put it back in its box and played Quake 4 from my cd library using my virtual drive and just haven't felt the need to bother loading up the game built by control freaks again.

Despite All Its Reported Problems I Gave It A Try...

I found a copy of this game at a brick & mortal store going for $10 and since I have a spare computer system which I could install and play it on without having to worry about the "StarForce" malware, I gave this game a try. Given all the negative feedback of the past year, and UBISOFT's agreeing not to use the 'StarForce' malware copy protection sceme going forward, I was surprised that they still haven't released a patch to resolve the problem for this game. In fact it looks like UBISOFT has abandonned any ongoing support of this game.

As for game play? It sucks. Not only are the graphics cutting edge for the end of the 20th century, the game play is very linear and if that weren't bad enough other characters in the game are constantly telling you what to do anyhow. Further, appearing as a 1st person shooter, the game has some sections that can only be completed as 3rd person and parts of the game have continuous strobing type flashes which aren't safe for some people with seizure disorders.

I was originally interested in this game because of UBISOFT's FarCry release. But after dealing with this game, it's clear that CryTek is soley responcible for FarCry's excellence. Hopefully, CryTek will find a new distributor for their 'Crysis' upcoming release...
