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.

Rented out this game but it's going back today.

Quality stuff, single player and Co-op are brilliant. Cant be bothered to buy it though, I'll be saving my £140 for Hitman 2, Def Jam Vendetta and Mario Kart.

Oo yes. This game rocks. The single player is great, as there is a well balanced mix of tactics and all out gung-ho action. You can order blokeys to cover you, while at the same time going nuts with a heavy machine gun. Add to that the screams when a tank lumbers accross the screen and you have good fun.

4 player co-op is just amazing. Such good fun. I reccomend it now now.

Shooting Iraqi's in a top notch game?

If they're firing at me...I'll shoot them - I'm in for a game (wonders how to get money for Conflict Desert Storm)

I was joking, I meant it was realistic because you can get killed by friendly fire.
