Tactical combat games are evolving, and this game allows urban warfare to take a higher step up. Traditionally speaking, it has always been the tactically minded PC gaming crowd that's enjoyed these ultra-realistic types of games, but this game was designed for the xbox. With a beefed up AI system, this game allows more realistic reaction to urban combat (stance, formation, ROE, using cover for protection. This game removes the first person shooter aspect--although you will not shoot directly(pull the trigger) you can give commands as to where to point the gun and shoot or throw a nade', move individual warriors to where you want them. This forces people to use cover more, rewards brains instead of fast trigger fingers, and allows you to connect with your platoon (you even read the letters they write home), soldiers distribute ammo among each other, soldiers work with each other(one will crouch down while another stands when around a corner to maximize covering fire). It even takes other factors like damage to buildings, being sensitive to their culture(enter a mosque, you can't fire your weapon-thus alternative solutions are required), securing the dead-remove their weapons so other can't get the gun-or children, ROE (rules of engagment) This game was designed for the military first, but they made some modifications for the customer version (make it more fun), more storyline(completing the process by adding what many shooters lack, a good story to motivate the player) and it has xbox live! Graphic wise, it looks like eye candy, and I brought the xbox system specifically for this game. Many people will be turned off by the lack of firstpersone shooting, but I believe they made the right choice because too many games are too much of a run-n-gun type--even american's army (although they made it realistic) has too much of a run-n-gun type situation. Sure, gamers don't really care to play an Army simulator that operates with excruciating realism, but full spectrum warrior has a good blend of tactical, squad-based gameplay and hardcore action together. With many games hitting the market promising a realistic combat experience it is nice to see a team actually developing a game with just that. Full Spectrum Warrior promises to be the first in what could be its own genre of games.

This game is gonna be tight. The graphics are gorgeous and it's a squad based tactical game. Even though you don't actually get to pull the trigger on your weapons it sounds like Pandemic Studios and THQ are putting in work on making sure this game plays as well as it looks which is great. June 8th is the current release date, I believe, and I can't wait to be able to add this to my Xbox collection.

(...)I downloaded a bunch of videos for it off the internet and all I can say is WOW. Just the video of the squad sitting there while the controlling person just looked around was amazing. The level of detail is amazing. The wind blows and you can see little pieces of trash blow with the wind. The buildings and environments are just detailed beyond anything we've seen to this point. Easily as good as if not better detailed than Splinter Cell. Watch this one with a close eye.

Not realistic

From viewing the video clips, its clear the US soldiers in this game employ a 'spray and pray' approach to every incident; this is not realistc, and more like what today's untrained Iraqi soldiers do, not highly trained US servicemen. Not once did I see members of a squad *aiming* precise or controlled shots vs. the enemy, which is just not realistic. In every engagement the majority of members in the squad should be seen taking aimed shots -- sure the SAW gunner lays down supressing fire, but they really dropped the ball on this with having no one taking aimed shots with their scope-equiped rifles.

It's not out yet, you shouldn't be reviewing this game!

Why are there five reviews for this game out when it hasn't even come out yet? Have you guys played the game? How can you rate it without having ever tried it? Sheesh!

Looks Good...

I first saw a preview of this game in Xbox magazine in Mrach or so. They just thought the game looked great (which it does). I saw the screens for the game and all I can say is WOW!!! I know a lot of people will e discouraged by not being able to fire directly, but I think that idea to just control will make it extremely fun. The only thing I am worried about is how it will work out online. LOOKS GREAT!

different can be good

i reserved this game and Halo2 today and i decided i would try to fined more about it so i read some reviews. i was a little skeptical when i read you don't get to kill people yourself so i went to THQ's website and watched a few videos. it has a very good button layouts, great graphics, and overall it looks like a pretty cool game. don't get me wrong, thin is DEFINITELY NOT NEAR AS GOOD AS HALO2 WILL BE, but still a real neat game.

I cant believe it
A computer game and the soldiars who kill and torture people appear as angels.
Also they fire at the mosques and destroy whole cities and after all they want to be heros.
What is going on. These games companies dont see but money. no respect for Iraqi's feeling.
What do you think if I make a computer game that shows American as targets and murderer. What do u think if game environment is London or Paris.
It seems like the word justice has died in the west and for ever
