Now since this is a WWII-based game, I thought i'd try it out, since I hear the PC version was really good. Now, as you can see, it's something that's a copy of Medal of Honor, only that Call of Duty: Finest Hour gives you a terrible aiming system, Mediocre graphics, shoddy gameplay, and an alright sound quality. First off: the Gameplay. Now as alot of people probably know, it's hard to find a decent war game in these times. Unfortunatly, this isn't one of them, and while it delivers some exciting moments and realistic sound quality, they'll soon be drowned out by some dumb AI, sluggish controls, and a really bad aiming system. You'll also soon be frustrated when some of your allies won't get out of your way, when your moving really slow in a killzone, and when your weapons don't aim very well while your being slaughtered by nazi's that seem to hit you with every single shot that comes out of their guns. The Graphics really aren't that better. Sometimes the framerate will slow down alot when your in the heat of battle, and sometimes the characters will move very awkwardly. The cutscenes look ugly as well. The sound is probably the highlight of the whole game. The guns sound very powerful, the voice acting is great, and the music is entertaining as well. The controls, as i said, are very stiff and in some parts, unresponsive. The aiming system is absolutely terrible. You'll probably die before you even get a good lock on 'em. Overall, this was a disappointing game with huge glitches, awful controls, and bad AI. Not even worth a rental for that matter.
