Rated 7.0 out of 10 by Game Informer.

The island of Skira has been a disputed territory since the end of World War II. Officially, it falls under the sovereignty of the Russian Federation, but a U.S. and Japanese presence has been there following the discovery of extremely rich and viable oil fields. On September 23rd at 0800 hours, under the guise of ensuring his people's prosperity, General Zheng ordered an airborne division of the People's Liberation Army of China (PLA) to execute a lightning invasion, claiming Skira Island for the People's Republic. As you are aware, the Russian Federation has requested U.S. military support. In response, the USS Iwo Jima has been deployed. You and your fellow Marines should expect to engage scattered but heavily entrenched PLA positions. Our success on Skira could avert total war on the mainland.

Having read all the reviews from the company about this game and its gameplay, I feel like I may have missed something. The game, while under the category of mil-sim, is very much like any other shooter I have played. The story line is linear, and the missions very short. Replayibility for this g...[More]

Very Challenging

By: Blanchdaddy    Favorite Category: Shooter    Date: Monday, Oct 26, 2009

Purchased this game the day it came out, played immediately upon reaching home, very frustrated within an hour. While I did not expect this game to be like Call of Duty, I was expecting something closer to Rainbow 6. Rainbow 6 was much, much easier. Obviously the concept of strafing/taking cover/staying low is not new to FPS vets, but getting nailed and killed with one random hit from 300 yards...[More]

A Real-Life Shooter; No Run and Gun

By: LehighVILLIAN    Favorite Category: Shooter    Date: Friday, Oct 23, 2009

This game is one of the most realistic "modern warfare" game that I have ever played. I started the game on campaign mode and found that the missions are very challenging; keep in mind, this challenge was only set to normal difficulty. Other difficulty levels are experienced and hardcore. As you play through the campaign you take on realistic missions, with realistic AI at your side as w...[More]
