    C'est une daube de chez Guerrilla, les spécialistes des Killzob, donc il ne faut pas en attendre grand-chose ou quasiment rien pour ainsi dire... Sur PC, c'est carrément que dalle, peau de balle, que dalle sauf si on considère la place que cette bouse prend sur le disque dur, bien sûr. Et encore, c'est un peu encombrant vu que ça prend de la place pour rien...

    Qu'il ne fonctionne pas    C'est une daube de chez Guerrilla, les spécialistes des Killzob, donc il ne faut pas en attendre grand-chose ou quasiment rien pour ainsi dire... Sur PC, c'est carrément que dalle, peau de balle, que dalle sauf si on considère la place que cette bouse prend sur le disque dur, bien sûr. Et encore, c'est un peu encombrant vu que ça prend de la place pour rien...

    Qu'il ne fonctionne pas sur un OS 64 bits, admettons mais sur XP, c'est fort de café... c'est pourtant écrit sur la boîte et quant à un patch éventuel, j'ai pas trouvé, y compris sur les fameux scrolls des patches, références en la matière pour les vieux patches à vieilles merdes de cet acabit...Encore que 2004, ce n'est pas non plus si vieux, j'ai vu des jeux plus vieillots qui marchaient direct sans faire leurs bâtards !

    Mais là, outre l'incompétence du développeur, peut-être qu'il s'agit également d'un complot visant AMD... j'aurais pu tester sur mon portable qui a une Nvidia mais j'ai tout de même pas (autant) de temps à perdre. Donc, on lance le jeu, le menu est là, puis on charge la première mission, on zappe la cinématique à deux balles, puis... un écran bleu de sa mère dans mon driver graphique ! c'est pourtant l'un des derniers pour mon XP chéri, full DX9 approuvé !

    Ah ça faisait longtemps que j'avais pas vu d'écran bleu comme ça : cela nous ramène aux heures les plus sombres de notre histoire paléo-informatique comme Windows 95 et 98...! même le DOS ne faisait pas d'écran bleu comme ça, il était autrement mieux élevé : lui, c'était plutôt noir avec un curseur et éventuellement un reboot sauvage (le Malin est dans ta machine !).

    Bon, bref, cette chiasse ne marche pas sur PC. Quant à la version PS2, ça doit être tellement laid et saccadé que ça va pas être possible mais c'est du classique tout ça, en fin de compte. Je suis épaté un peu quand même : un écran bleu de sa mère !    … Expand

    Truly disappointed by this game. Really anticipated a unique experience because of the media leading up to its release. General freedom to act and explore in this game is very limited - they should have licenced the Crytec engine. Graphics are likewize outdated -even older engines generate better graphics. Gameplay is again hopeless! Even purchasing an older Conflict series game is Truly disappointed by this game. Really anticipated a unique experience because of the media leading up to its release.

    If you took a rocket ship to the Planet of Bad Games and then found the country on that planet where all the really Bad Games were and then found the capital city in that country where the really Crappiest Games existed and then found the shop in that city which sold the absolute worst games ever, I still think you wouldn't find a crappier game than Shellshock Nam '67.

This game stinks! I can only assume that Eidos were suffering from shellshock when they released this ugly, useless title. Controls? Forget it it! Game play? Non-existant! Graphics? Garbage! Audio? Embarrassing! Enemy AI? What enemy AI? Cut scenes? Gratuitous filth! Arrrgghhhh! I hate this crap so much! Now I must get it off my PC immediately!… Expand

    I think a good opportunity has been missed with this game.The game is far too linear, and although the graphics are good they cannot compare with Far Cry.I think if this game had the graphics of Far Cry and the gameplay of Fist Alpha and the plot of this game then they would be onto a winner but as it stands i feel a little bit short changed. i completed the game very quickly and felt thatI think a good opportunity has been missed with this game.The game is far too linear, and although the graphics are good they cannot compare with Far Cry.I think if this game had the graphics of Far Cry and the gameplay of Fist Alpha and the plot of this game then they would be onto a winner but as it stands i feel a little bit short changed. i completed the game very quickly and felt that i had not really been tested. Also there is no way to play online which in this day and age of broadband is unforgiveable.… Expand

    If you judge this game fair, it has earned a 75 at least. It's kind of an arcade, console-like game, but hey: You wanna tell me that Cod and that stuff is "realistic" ? :D

    This game is fun, it motivates you with the collection of "trophies". Give it a try, you might like it !

    the gameplay is disgusting, the physics and horrible the mutilation hurts the eyes so badly done but it's worth a 6 for the nostalgia that this game was for me when I was a teenager

    It fails in my eyes as an innovative title that people will find themselves wanting to pick up in the face of "Doom 3" and the impending "Half-Life 2."

    You cannot kill your fellow US soldiers...why? We’re not saying that it’s a good move to blast your support into oblivion, but it would be a consequence to taking a gung-ho, guns blaring approach.

    Shellshock doesn’t amount to much more than six or seven hours of gameplay. It’s over almost as soon as it began which, depending on how much you paid for it, might be a good thing.
