Its an ok game a bit complex though.
the game is complex, though it is alot of fun, but u need a good computer to run this game. I only have 2.6 GHZ core 2 duo with vista 64 bit operating system and 512mb graphics card and 4 gigs of ram, on my laptop and it runs good but i have to reduce the graphics a bit.

Far Cry was MUCH better, but it was worth the Yard Sale $1
Let me start by saying I got this in a yard sale for $1. Yes, it is very demanding on your hardware so I played with most settings at low. Probably because of this I didn't think it looked better than Far Cry, and many ways much worse (I cranked up settings to high to check it out and the visuals still weren't polished like Far Cry).
The beginning missions were like some of the poorer sections of Far Cry (multiple paths but really not too many choices). The last sections were like Half-Life 2, so single pathed you feel like a dog on a leash. The different vehicles were fun, but none but the Humvee really felt real enough to make it really fun (helicopter was fair at best).
All in all, I'd say it was fun. Playability was average (why do the enemies see you in the dark and behind things?). In some areas the AI was really off, with the Koreans facing the wrong way as you mowed them down for 5 minutes. Felt very unpolished, but can be finished and didn't crash with the latest patches. Played on difficult, and the end was really challenging which required 20 replays in half a dozen spots.
Definitely worth the $1 I paid, if I paid up to $20 for it then I'd be happy. I'm going back to playing Far Cry with user generated maps, maybe I'll take it out again in 4 years when standard hardware can drive the game engine to its potential.

Great until you have to fly
The game is a superb FPS until they have you fly. The controls are the worst I have seen in nearly 20 years of computer gaming. Complete failure of design. The enemy stays right behind you and you have very little control over the aircraft. At that point it is time to quit.

As good as it can get
Exciting, interactive galore and runs on highest settings on my 3Ghz dual core processor with 3 GB ram and Nvidia 8800 card.

Online is weird and single player was better.
I have a 8800 gtx and this game needs two for me online. Be ready to be dissappointed on many other machines that I have tried, my roomates and brothers. They have ati cards and it wont run sometimes or the framerate is really messed up. I liked the single player mode more than the multiplayer because it is more involved.
