Best first person shooter game on the market

This game is by far the best military game on the market and second is Battlefield. The enemy hides and peaks out and shoots unlike other military games when the enemy just runs at you, the AI is awesome. Controls are easy but it is hard to call for airstrikes and snipers because you have to have the crosshairs on the tank or person. And it is hard to call for suppressive fire and cover because the same reason with airstrikes and snipers. But it would be hard to call for that any other way. I agree with the man that previouly served in the military about this game and want to thank him for fighting for our Freedom. Awesome game, highly recommend buying this game.

Excellent contemporary war FPS!

As I write this review, I have not yet finished the game, but after smashing my controller in frustration, I knew it was time to write a review. Whenever I get so enmeshed in a game that I lose my temper and have to replay levels, I know I'm playing a worthwhile game. Close Combat is a challenging and well-done game. The enemies are smart and numerous. It takes real fore-thought to utilize your team effectively. Some of the environments really test your gaming skills (e.g. how do you turn a corner & take out a machine gun nest at the end of a narrow hallway?). Graphics are great and so are the controls. Definitely worth renting and/or buying for fans of FPS and war-oriented games.

Previous so called "reviews" are hogwash

Having spent a few years in the Corps and been involved in conflicts such as this ( served during the first Gulf War ), I advise anyone who like FPSG to get this one. I was hooked for sometimes up to 4 hours playing it.It brought back good and bad memories about what I had been through. Any of the previous geekoids who hated this game have spent too much time thinking other games resemble real-life. I say get out and experience life before passing judgement. This game was awesome in it's intensity, graphics and gameplay. Well worth the money. I am hoping for a sequel because I will be the first one in line.

better than Blackhawk Down

I conquered this game for 3 months straight before owning it.It's a hard game to get into at first,but I just witnessed my friend playing for the first time and he was kicking ass.You can't move around and walk in the middle of alley and gangways.You constantly have to be crouched down walking steadly toward your target on your map that you have to follow.The game is used to train Marines in real life combat situations and I will say it's a realistic game.I worked my way from Recruit to Marine in 2 weeks.Kicking straight terrorist butt.

thank you!!! a gamer age 10

I like this game because it is multiplayer and is going to be fun. I mean, you can't judge this game before you try it. I also want to say thank you to the Army, Airforce, Navy and Marines and everybody who was at Saint Mer Eglise, D-Day, crossing of the River Rhine, Battle of the Bulge and the whole war. Thank you!!! so try this game out, see if you like it, and don't judge it if you haven't tried it out. You could always send it back if you don't like it. Now let's get back to the game

Multiplayer for four

trainer for the U.S. Marines

Co -op

And just go house to street and have fun and remember it's fun that count's.

The Standard for any soldier.

This is a great game.Stop putting it up against FSW they're 2 different games both are good in both aspects. Being in the military this seems to be more true than FSW, even though you move a little slow which is sometimes good.Great action through out the game and the night vision is sweet.

Very Intense!

This is a very intense First Person Shooter! I have played NovaLogic, Rainbow Six and Ghost Recon; but FtF is at another level above these games. The AI is much much better, the graphics is great, and the game play is excellent. The action is very dramatic. The various missions are all urban but diverse. I liked the moving thru the sewer.

The terrorists AI is very good. They don't do too many stupid things. They use cars, etc for cover well.

I also like the ability to call in air strikes, mortar, and snipers. This helps out alot.

I miss having a map I can view and the ability to play selected "custom missions" like Rainbow Six and Ghost Recon. Also since you "lead" the team, you cannot plan out your mission in advance, rather you plan it as you go along.

There is a good system for restarting at various "checkpoints" if (when) you get killed.

I also miss having a pistol as a 2nd weapon.

One issue I had was my video card. I had an ATI 7000. The game loaded but would not start up. I replaced my card with an ATI 9600 and the game works great!

Overall it is great!

cover my back!!!
