9.1 - It was one of the first true indicators that the new gen had arrived.
Pros:
- It enhanced and nailed the third person cover system mechanic
- Great graphics at release
- Awesome sound
- Great multiplayer component (although I'm not too big on online multiplayer)
- Local co-op :)
- Excellent atmosphere
Cons
- Poor art style in my view. At the time the industry wasn't flooded with UE3 titles but the drab art in the game (very very brown) hurt the visuals IMO. This might have been an intentional design decision to create the atmosphere of war however.
- Although it was a great sound track, a lot of it just felt over the top and didn't fit the situations for me
- Glitchers/Cheaters
- Left you hanging at parts where you thought things were about to go down (ie. Brumak scenes in the 360 version)
- Little to no story within the game - It's a similar gripe to the Halo series. I love the games and the mythos but Halo 2 and 3 didn't make good use of all the great material in the world.
