Been playing Conflict Desert Storm all day and I gotta say, it's the muts nuts of war games.
None of that boring tactical planning like Clancy games, ya can just get stuck in from the off. This aint not run in and shoot evberything game though, there's a fair bit of tactical planning when you're playing, it just never gets boring planning roots on mapes and stoopid crap like that.
The co-op is quite simply the best shooter co-op ever. had my mate round this afternoon playing it and it was simply superb, you really have to work with each other laying down covering fire as your mate sets up bombs.
AT one point we had to get some C4 from a building to blow up a bridge, my mate went to find some high ground to cover me as his dude had the sniper rifle, I was doing my sneaky gay bloke impression as I tried to avoid being detected by the Iraqi's on the other side of the ravine. My mate being the chump that he is, decided to unload a clip in one of the guards over the other side of the ravine triggering half of the Iraqi army to come running across the bridge attempting to unload their guns in my face. Luckily though the building I ran into for cover happened to house a load of weapons including a few Anti Tank rocket launcher things, a couple of explosions later and Mr Iraqi mans guts are all over the wall, I killed myself in the explosion but a few Medi Kits later and I was right as rain.
Genius, so many more things like this happened like when we had to take a tank out, I ducked by a window waiting for it to turn it's back on me so I could shoot my load in it ar-se.....anti tank missile that is. While my mate ran out in front of it to get its attention.
So much fun, yall should buy this game ya hear..
Oh and another thing it's really realistic, earlier I was doing a mission I heard a radio call, next thing I know an american chopper goes over head and fires some missiles at a radar station right next to me, killing my whole squad in the process.
Friendly fire, spooky.

I've got 33 :S
Mind you, I've worked for two games retailers and have had staff discount (and still spent some of my money at Special Reserve!) - now however, I don't work for any so Special Reserve is back as my no. 1 place for games - especially because I don't need to leave the house to buy anything :D

I want Resi 0. And this war game thing.
Ah I cannot wait for the Capcom 4 I really can't.
I'll be too occupied with Zelda.. and conflict, then maybe splinter cell or skies of arcadia, then there's the matter of 1080 Avalanche, Mario kart, F zero.. and probably more that i can't name
Well Def Jam doesn't star the WWE thingies so I'll enjoy it as a grappeling beat 'em up.
Gosh, wasnt expecting a reply so quick.
Its damn good, if you like wrestling.
