    Yes, Real Heroes is a little rough around the edges but when you are in the thick of gameplay that won't matter as you get pulled into the world of firefighting.

    This game is one of those, you will either really like it, or your really gonna hate it.

    Although it's unavoidable that some players won't be able to get past the graphics, those that do will be treated to an entertaining and worthwhile experience for a system that currently boasts the highest shovelware-to-keeper ratio I think I've ever seen.

    Real Heroes: Firefighter shows respect to the real life men and woman who risk their lives to help prevent the unstoppable force of unforgiving fire. The gameplay is surpassingly intense and packaged into a fun campaign as a rookie firefighter learning the ropes.

    In the end the game ranked pretty high with me for its new take on the first person shooter genre. Add to that some intuitive controls and a non-violent foe Real Heroes: Firefighter surprised me. Sure it has some flaws but to me they were not enough to hamper my experience.
  6. GameShark
    67
    Real Heroes: Fighterfighter is unquestionably the finest fire-fighting game I've ever played, but that isn't saying much given how this isn't exactly a budding genre.
  7. GameTrailers
    45
    Even for a budget title, Real Heroes: Firefighter is unpolished and sloppy. The experience picks up toward the end, but it's too little too late when you consider the monotonous trudge that leads you there.

    Who would have thought it? sounds like shovelware, looks honestly kind of sub par (at least the water fx imho are sub par), but the gameplay, Who would have thought it? sounds like shovelware, looks honestly kind of sub par (at least the water fx imho are sub par), but the gameplay, the dialog, the timing, the reality of it all, the story line and the actual events in the game are all really fun and immersive! This is well worth $30 or more. better than many $50 games on the wii. amazing graphics aren't everything, although these don't suck at all, they're pretty well between n64 and early gamecube release quality. but it doesn't matter, GREAT game! tons of fun.… Expand
