Just as good as the XBox version, but better, hi-res and mouse/keyboard control system is easier.

Not bad at all.....its like playing an RTS game in Third Person, I espicially like the easy to use controls.

This game will definately get a good score!!!

Yeah, finished it on normal, then authentic. Didn't seem to be any difference in the AI level of the squad or the enemies. The only difference seemed to be that if a teammate went down, he was out and you lost. No med-evaq and no ammo restocking.

The demo was quite good. A few minor griefs which I can exuse.

Very nice idea, and well executed.

The minor problems I had were:

- Generally quite dark. I think they need to work on their contrast and gamma levels. The sky is blaringly bright, and also very lacking in detail. The streets and alleyways are very dark - too dark.

- Occasionally the camera angles made it hard to direct your squad into the right position, and the lack of a free movement camera made it sometimes hard to tell which corner to put your men onto when they came up to a T interesection with one side of the street extending slightly further along. These discrepencies, if negoatiated incorrectly, would usually result in the killing of one of the squad and a mission failure.

All in all, a very nice game, and, I think, an original idea and well implemented. It's a shame I've heard it looks better on the X-box, a less state of the art machine, than the average or even top of the line PC.

Yeah the camera angles need to be fixed... I'd have liked to see a free-cam view.

I'v already arranged with a mate to finish the whole game in co-op mode. BTW there are 2 bonus levels on top of the xbox ones. I havn't played it on xbox so I'm looking forward to it.
