    This game is awful. I played it for an hour waiting for something, anything, to happen other than button mashing and allocating points to the three attributes (health, luck and skill) but it didn't. The only thing about the franchise that made it stand out was the strategy elements, without them, KuF:CoD is just half a game, the boring half.

    This game is horrible. I can't believe Xbox 360 has the nerve to put something out like this. The graphics and the game as a whole remind me of some game that should have been available only on PS2...years ago. The story is something that I couldn't even follow because I dont think there was much of a story. Any kind of words displayed on the screen were absolutely unreadable. I This game is horrible. I can't believe Xbox 360 has the nerve to put something out like this. The graphics and the game as a whole remind me of some game that should have been available only on PS2...years ago. The story is something that I couldn't even follow because I dont think there was much of a story. Any kind of words displayed on the screen were absolutely unreadable. I couldn't figure out what was used for which button thats how unreadable the words were. The graphics are such that the only way you can tell where you enemies are is if they are moving i.e. the Final Fantasy mmorpg for the same console. I just bought this game and will be returning it in the same day. I bought this game to get away from FPS's that are all too present in Xbox 360 and now I'm screaming for my Rainbow Six. I gave it a 2 only because it is playable, technically. Point is...DON'T BUY THIS GAME!!!!!!!… Expand

    I can't believe anyone would have the stomach to play this for more than 20 minutes. The most repetitive, boring, whackamolefest I've seen in ages. What a disappointment.

    WOW....not the game, the expression. That is what I was left saying after wasting 2 hours of my life on this game. I was really pumped for a Gauntlet-like next-gen game, but boy was I disappointed. First, no story line at all to sink you in. You just start running through monotonous maps that have no possibilities of exploration. You literally run around hacking hords of monsters. WOW....not the game, the expression.

Terrible, terrible game IMO. Only good thing I can say is cool character design, beyond that, stay away.… Expand

    This game is genuinely one of the worst games I have ever played. I loved the previous two Xbox games and bought this with much hope and anticipation. I was beyond devastated when I played it for the first time. It is absolute rubbish.

    Un hack & slash ? un beat'em all ? c'est juste un "truc" non-identifié chiant comme un Dynasty Merdiors avec des allures de Diablol. C'est techniquement complètement à la masse avec au minimum une génération de retard, le tout s'accompagnant de ralentissements particulièrement inconvenants au milieu de tout ce foutoir.

    I can't believe that Microsoft has allowed this piece of crap to be available on Xbox. Just awful. Environment has that horrible copy/paste look, every area is same as the other. Game-play? Right...bad mechanic, crappy graphic, poor and non-existent story. Avoid this one in a big circle...

    Worst buy in my life. Not only because its a terrible game, in Every aspect, but mainly because its the worst followup in history. We, the poor bastards, that bought it thought we where getting a new "Heroes" or "Crusaders". Oh where we wrong...

    The story is vapid and devoid of any substance and what little there is is not explained well or fleshed out.

    The 360 already has a couple of real killer RPGs available for it, and I’d urge you to take a look elsewhere before jumping on board with this.

    An action/RPG with JRPG elements; which has totally lost its way. Not recommended.
