Actually I purposely stayed away from mentioning and comparing it to ArmA2... two different games, IMO... and hate reviews that compare games to other games, unless it was like ArmA1 and ArmA2...

That was a Editor in Chief edit... blame him. lol... jk.

If you don't get beyond the first 3-4 missions, you really aren't seeing what the game offers. Those are practically just training missions. The rest get much better.

nice writeup!

It looks like it could be fun game so I am starting to lean towards a purchase. it will be interesting to see where Codemaster intends to take this game series.
