    Un Operation Flashpoint sur console, on pouvait penser que ce serait un peu moins lourd et pathétique à manier qu'un Operation Flashpoint sur PC, surtout lorsque c'est Codemasters qui s'en charge... que nenni ! c'est aussi abominable à jouer en fait. L'interface est merdique et si graphiquement c'est assez joli, il est entaché par des filtres tantôt jaunes tantôt bleus verdâtres. Beurk.Un Operation Flashpoint sur console, on pouvait penser que ce serait un peu moins lourd et pathétique à manier qu'un Operation Flashpoint sur PC, surtout lorsque c'est Codemasters qui s'en charge... que nenni ! c'est aussi abominable à jouer en fait. L'interface est merdique et si graphiquement c'est assez joli, il est entaché par des filtres tantôt jaunes tantôt bleus verdâtres. Beurk.

    Il paraît que c'est "réaliste" et que la guerre en vrai, elle est comme ça, c'est-à-dire merdique. Crapahute pendant des plombes, repère les ennemis avec tes jumelles, contourne-les... ah c'est ballot, t'as mis trop de temps à ramper : le Chef il a dit que fallait buter le lance-missiles y a un quart d'heure. Recommence : cette fois, tu mets les bouts et tu te carapates jusqu'à l'objectif... ah c'est ballot, des connards t'ont repéré et t'alignent la tronche à 300 m... mais qui me tire dessus ? hein ? où ça ? quoi ? que... t'es morg ducon !

    D'autres éditeurs ont tenté une approche moins nulle à chier (les Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter notamment) et ont essayé d'en faire un jeu, pas une simu de troupier en Moldavie chiante comme la mort. J'allais oublier un autre souci pourtant d'une importance capitale dans ce genre d'étron campagnard : les sauvegardes sont automatiques ! voilà qui tue toute tentative de varier les approches. Recommence encore, troufion, et cours, rampe, crève, recommence.

    J'ai quand même trouvé un truc sympa dans ce foutoir : la musique du menu d'accueil.    … Expand

    I've been playing computer games since I had a Spectrum 48k back in 1981. I can honestly say that this game is in my `top' ten of worst games ever, yes it's that bad.
    It's got more bugs than a crab victims pants, it's sloooow, inaccurate, confusing.
    Thankfully I bought it pre-owned for only seven quid, if I'd paid seven pence for it, then I would maybe not be that bothered.

    Terrible game from the usually genius Codemasters.    … Expand

    A picky "professionals only" experience where youre expected to act like you really would if you were there even though youve been denied the ability you would have if you were. Its obviously been designed for the ruthlessly strict world of the PC sim where fun is puzzlingly considered "unprofessional" and "likely to get you killed". Why on earth theyd port it to a platform designed for A picky "professionals only" experience where youre expected to act like you really would if you were there even though youve been denied the ability you would have if you were.

Completely out of pace and overly ignorant of purpose. Save yourself some money and just go sign up for basic training where you can have burly, sneering jugheads telling you "youre doing it wrong" from dawn till dusk while suffering every soul shattering minute the games supporters seem to fetishise! Go forth and get shot!… Expand

    More than anything, it's a game that, even after completion, we want to keep returning to again and again, adding different ingredients to the freeform formula and seeing what kind of explosions we can create. We can guarantee you won't have played an FPS quite like this on Xbox 360, but now that one's arrived, you certainly should. [Nov 2009, p.84]

    At its best, it's nerve-janglingly tense as you plot and then implement the next firefight – where decisions you make have very serious consequences. But be warned, it's not a game that gently welcomes those more used to running-and-gunning, and even for the hardcore, there are serious problems with awkward command menus for your squad and bland missions at the top of the list of minus points.

    Operation Flashpoint 2 is a simulation, but it’s a simulation that is actually fun to play.
