    I really like RR compared to Dragon Rising. The new game still has some bugs like during a last stand and running to get ammo, I get hit by a mysterious bullet (not actually even in the fire zone). But the game is quite entertaining if you have a good team. Maps are more colorful but still not up to Uncharted 2 or BF2 standards. I don't miss multiplayer at all.

The new DLC is decent for the money (8 maps FTE). The game play is unmatched by today's FPS like COD, MW, BF2. No run and gun. I think Codemasters improved the game. Now they just need to focus on graphics, some connection online errors and make the game more towards ARMA II and it will have a cult following.… Expand

    Codemasters would be best served choosing to make their games either realistic or fun, and stop trying to find a balance between the two. Right now we are left with a game that alternates between frustrating and boring, but one that is never enjoyable.

    If you are into shooters, then there are definitely better titles than this one. Operation Flashpoint: Red River suffers from slow pacing and too much time not even taking part in firefights. It deals more with having you playing Nurse Nightingale healing yourself and your team than a death-dealing marine. If that sounds like your idea of a good time, then go nuts.

    Red River may not appeal to everyone – our sense is that it's too hardcore for the console crowd and doesn't have enough of a unique identity for the PC crowd – but that shouldn't dissuade fans of the series or of modern-warfare shooters from taking a playthrough.
