Review - Call of Duty, Finest Hour - XBOX
The reviews for Activision's Call of Duty, Finest Hour have been widely positive. This is not a positive review.
I hated this game. It sucked so much that I didn't finish it... and I'm big on finishing games. It' a boring rehash of previous Call of Duty titles.. and this xbox version is particularly bad.
The save points are way too far apart. You can be the biggest hero... saving all your mates, making it past hordes of bad guys... then you die and find yourself alllll the way back at the start of the level. Oh man that's irritating.
Want to customize your controls? Forget it. You can select from some preset configurations.... You can invert your Y-axis... but forget about changing anything else... Did I mention how much this game sucks? I was searching for reasons to stop playing. My daughter wanted to watch Scoobie Doo... "Do you want to watch it on the big screen? Nahh, I'm not using it."
Details Details:
Good Points
-You get to play as a Brit, an American, and a Russian.
Bad Points
-Extremely linear gameplay
-Mysterious invisible walls confine you to a very limited gameplay area.
-Poor graphics compared to similar Xbox titles.
-Distant savepoints.
-Backward AI that can be easily messed up. Try blocking the path of a character you are protecting...
-Arcade-style predictability.
