Has anyone picked up a copy yet? It looks like one of those games that is either going to be horrible, or very good. If anybody has played it, feel free to post your opinions :thumbs:
 
I have it, and I like it. I was dissapointed in a few aspects though. The gameplay isn't all that realistic, which is what I expected, but I was hoping the AI would be a little better. Also, the gore is too overdone. I mean, I highly doubt someones head would explode from getting shot with an M16 or that it could take his entire leg off. I'm all for violence, but I don't want enemies to "gib" in a sem-realistic war game.

And now on to the good parts. It's fun, provides a very gritty and somewhat realistic depiction of Vietnam, and it's very unique for a war game - I can't think of another quite like it. I suggest you try it, it's a well above average third person shooter.
