Wow actually quite liked the look of this until I read the forums and this thread. The EA Online Code thing is becoming a real friggin pain, and I am glad I have pretty much decided not to pick this one up. Wouldn't have bought it new anyway, and I am dam sure I aren't giving EA the satisfaction of charging me for their Pass.

It's THQ, dude. WB Games is also doing it with Mortal Kombat.

Face it, it's the new standard. =/

SLEEPYvsPSYCHO · 04-22-2011, 04:39 PM

A big NO! dont get it! its garbage!

Starwind · 04-28-2012, 12:15 AM

I'm thinking of getting this game again as I got rid of it a week after the MP broke not long after launch(was a shame as I really enjoyed the MP), so is the online MP playable now? And would it be worth my time picking it up again? Basically will I be able to get the 1000GS?

ChickinOnaChain · 04-28-2012, 01:02 AM

I bought it used several months ago and couldn't get into it, so I sold it. But that's me.

JaKEEvERITT · 06-22-2012, 08:02 PM

buy it man, campaign is a bit short and can be annoying at points but good game overall. Multiplayer is good aswell

pitfallharry219 · 07-07-2012, 02:05 PM

I got it really cheap through a Gamefly coupon glitch awhile back, and I'm just now getting around to playing it. Gameplay is decent, but the premise and atmosphere is what keeps me chugging through the single player mode. It's taking me awhile because I suck at FPS. I haven't tried out MP yet.

ginge88isfun · 08-11-2012, 03:14 PM

Just recently got this back to try and mop up some more offline achievements.

diesel98a · 08-25-2012, 03:35 AM

Would it even be worth it for $20, i am just wanting to do the campaign, screw the online part of it.

No. Rent it. Depending on your skill level, getting all the Campaign cheevos could take you roughly 10 hours (or less).

Yeah something like that, the Iron Man Achievements can be a burden tho, often i died just because those stupid grenades and you coudn,t get away in time. Otherwise as its is an older game the story is still cool and graphics are good aswell. Best is the MP as its still very active and fun. Sometimes even if you pick up games pre-owned or used, the previous owners not always do use the codes, i had several used games that had codes still working. But if someone can get the game new and cheap its more then worth it.

Got this today for £5 so I'll see what I think. Heard a lot of mixed opinions about this game. So for the price it's gonna be an achievement run more than anything.

FatalDeathSG45 · 02-17-2013, 01:03 AM

When it first came out, I was sort of impressed. The story of an occupied America is easily one of the most intriguing stories I've seen in gaming. However, the graphics aren't too impressive, the campaign's too short, and the characters aren't very memorable. Multiplayer is decent, though.

If you're planning on getting this, try to get it new, since buying it used won't guarantee you an online pass. But if you're strapped of cash, get it used.
