Bodycount (Xbox 360)

This game is really old school styled, shot enemies become ammo coins and so on. The game play is fast. A lot of ammo laying around, a lot of enemies to be shot, really fun. Not a bloody game, a shooting game. FUN!!!

this is a mindless piece of fun' and as long as you take it as that' and not a serious game trying to be something it isnt ' it is well worth it for the price you can pick it up!

with everyone wanting complex first person shooters games like Bodycount where never going to do very well, but its a breath of fresh air in my mind with its roots firmly in the 'last gen'. Having played the game through more than once I can safely say I wish more games where like this. The main thing that stands out as not being the norm is that fact that you can not aim down the sights like in normal FPS, this is trying to get you closer to the enemies rather than sniping them from your comfort zone. When you do 'aim' however your rooted to the ground only able to lean, this is great for behind cover, [until that cover gets slowly blasted away] this can mean that you loose some of the momentum in a genuinely fast paced game. But, it just makes you more selective when you aim; The game's not about precision or minimal take-downs just spray your weapon. The weapons are undeniably good, with a lovely weight and sound to them, standouts include a silenced pistol which is a carbon copy from Perfect Dark, not a bad thing in my book; Lovely sound and reload animation. the last gun the MINIM1 is straight out of Black; while firing off a full clip into approaching enemies with the surrounding environment erupting in a hayle of bullets is simply electrifying. That's the main, and, if I'm honest, only 'hook' of the game; blasting bad guys with the weapon of your choosing and watching the destruction around you. It does this very well. That's it though. The 'destruction' is nothing like a frostbite engined game, most of the things to blow-up are only objects like cars, petrol cans, trucks, fuel tanks, not main architectural buildings. So after a large fire fight looking back at the level it looks much the same as in the beginning with no real architectural differences. Shame. Codemasters game engine is barely able to keep things running smoothly; in the heat of battle things do stutter quite a lot I've even had a full system crash when I called in a air strike while looking over a very large map. So doing destructible buildings is a tall order. Some of the later levels in the target interior, which are the polar opposites of the Africa levels with everything polished steels and glass. Are very, very challenging on later hardnesses. In one situation you open a door and after walking in and the door closing for good behind you you find yourself in a large room with a button in the middle to press, no escape. [Not original in any way, its taken straight from the doom games] you know what's coming after you've pressed the button and there's no real cover anywhere. Just a blast just running and gunning. I'm under no allusions that this is a game that doesn't sit well in the current market of FPS, but hopefully the people who did buy it and 100% it are not just trophy whores but are really enjoying it for what it is, a old-skool blast

OK, forgive me for reviewing this at a fairly early stage, but thought i would share my first gut impressions. Worringly, it seems very similar to Soldier of Fortune (not a good thing!) So far the game is distinctly average. Standard FPS fair of some warzone in which you're fighting for some kind of cause. There is some kind of plot behind this, but to be honest it was nothing that sounded in away interesting. Now, that's not really unusual because it's just a game like most others 'are just a game' (i'm not really saving the world, rescuing the girl, or scoring at wembley), so i don't get too engrossed in why i'm supposed to be doing what i'm doing. However, i'm only about 1hr into this game and i could be playing any number of other FPS's (only many of them are better!). I'm hoping this game starts to grow on me soon, because it's in danger of being put back in it's box.

Trying to review this game in over 20 words is going to tough. But here we go......... (1) Game play is terrible has many glitches throught the first level nevermind the full game. (2) Graphics abysmal from overlarge pixels and predated graphic programming.ive seen better on the ps1 (3) Boredom pure and simple firing lead and throwing grenades. (4) Sound is surprising good and the effects that can be heard as in bullet ricochet is cool. If you can get past all these faults you wont get past the motion sickness it leaves you, the camera angles simply doesnt know what to do. Keep your cash in your sky rocket and go for a far superior first person shooter.

It's a half decent game but do not put this game on thinking its a Call of Duty killer because it isn't - however as a brainless shooter then yeah it fits the bill

if this is on offer i suggest that you get it as its an easy way to boost achievements :).

Having played all CODs and MOHs I find this to be an excellent easy game . Great price .Good fun .

...aber ab und an unterhaltsam. Die Grafik bewegt sich auf X Box 1 Niveau und ist für heutige Möglichkeiten altbacken. Der Sound passt einigermassen. Schlimm verkorkst wurde die automatische Zielhilfe , welche die Abschüsse erleichtern soll , aber nur zum regelmässigen Danebenballern reicht. Stichwort Ballern: Das wäre die passende Kurzbeschreibung zum Spiel. Ausser ballern nix gewesen. Aber genau deswegen hält das Spiel zumindest ein etwas unterhaltsames Arcadeniveau und ist für zwischendurch mal ganz nett. Mehr aber auch nicht.

しごくまっとうなシューティングゲームだと思います。 敵と自分とのバランスがすごくいい、「洋ゲー」入門には、お手本の様な操作性。 また、敵がアンフェアではないのでストレスもかかりません。 CODやバトルフィールドも素晴らしい、けどちょい画面が暗いので目が疲れます。 このゲームは程よい明るさです。 何で、もっと人気でないの？ 「地雷」が笑っちゃうくらいハデ。 ゴアシーンも控えめなので、他人にも勧めやすい。 もちろん、英語力も必要ありません。
