I have never been fond of the Soviet Union, and that's because it was a communistic government. As of playing the campaign, I learned that the Russians are tight, and I welcome the change of opinion (though I don't approve of the S.U.). I say this because I loved the game's first levels. The Russian campaign is very tough, and you get some freaking good weapons. Every other campaign was from a nation that I've fought for. The weapons of each army were unique, and the difficulty was noticeably different on each setting (if you think that you can beat D-Day on veteran, you're suicidal). The game even has the option to turn off the cross hairs and auto-snipe-assist abilities, which makes a very challenging experience. Above all, this is the testing ground for how the graphics will hold up on the new system. If this is the starting point, how much better can it get? In conclusion; aside from the Russian campaign, it's a graphical master piece of been there, shot that. Not a bad thing though.
