Anyone picked this up ? Just wondering cause it has online co-op. My friend just bought it and also bought the game for me too. Should be fun gunning down terrorists. The reviews have had alot of praise for it.

I'll be going online with it soon for some co-op with my friend. Hope the medals are still in the game. ;-)

It was the boxed in closeness that actually made it a challenge though.

Otherwise it'd just be another turkey shoot.

CDS II was too boxed in, I agree. The open levels on the original may not of looked amazing, but they were great fun. Although, the siege level in co-op on CDSII was awesome. But then again, so was the helicopter crash level on the original.

Yeah its the co-op that got me wanting to play this one. If the series hadn't made that step, I don't think there would have been so much interest. Most XBox owners seem to look for online content in their games now. Personally I love online co-op. :-)

I only played the demo and decided to leave it. Tbh I thought I'd out grown the series as a gamer until they announced the online co-op which is the only reason I want to get this new one.

I think everyone was playing Freedom Fighters by then.

I preferred C:DS 2 because it actually required some skill to complete, although I expect the Cube version of CD:S was slightly harder: I'd already completed the Xbox version on all difficulties in single player and it was hard enough playing with my friends getting torn apart by the Xbox AI without them being any more difficult.

In single player the open areas in C:DS just made it too easy to setup killzones and waltz through the levels.

*scratches head*

Not really sure what that's got to with anything. It was still a better game than the Xbox version and by far the best game in the series.

I found the level design in CDS:2 to be quite dissapointing really, it felt far too boxed in and claustrophobic. I preffered the more open design of the first game.

The less said about Vietnam, the better.

Oh yeah that's right, it was out WAY after the Xbox version and had some of the AI from C:DS 2 in it which was soon to be on Xbox making owning the Cube version of C:DS rather pointless if you already had the Xbox version and were getting C:DS 2.

There were tons of differences.

CDS on Cube came out about 6 months after the Xbox version and had massive amounts of upgrading done on it.
