A great game if you're into single player shooters or 2 Player CO-OP. A terrible game for multi-player head to head.

I bought this game so that me and my 11 y/o brother in law would have a game we could play together (and that he didn't already own). We really got into the co-op mode quick. We even spent roughly 3 hours playing it on split screen the first night! One thing that excited me, when I got home, was the realization that your weapon and weapon upgrade purchases are saved to your profile, not just that XBOX. In addition, we were able to continue right where we left off, over live. All with his saved game data.

I was ALL ready to rate this game a 9.0. It has excellent graphics, fun weapons, weapon upgrades (including "pimped" for each weapon), and some really fun game play! THEN, I tried to play multi-player. First, you can expect to spend upwards to 20 minutes, waiting for other players. The only option is to play 2 against 2. You CAN pause during multi-player, guess what this does for everyone else? Brings up a screen, "waiting for other players." If that wasn't frustrating enough, wait until someone exits the game early! You will be notified and sent back to the main menu. If you DO manage to successfully play multiplayer, it will not be the head to head action that you may have hoped for. Instead, it's a series of objectives that each team has to compete. The team that completes the most, wins! YAY...Oh I'm sorry, I meant GAY!!!
