Extremely underrated. Don't overlook this great game!
GRAPHICS & SOUND: 7
+++
Most any computer made in the last 5 years will run this game easily, which makes for even gameplay. Surround sound compatible. Great bullet whizzing sound effects. Each gun has unique sound (and graphic of course).

Thay aren't all that great, but definately up to par for the moder FPSer. Not very impressive physics. Compatible with low to high resolutions (including widescreen).
GAMEPLAY: 9
+++
Lots of fun for both beginners and experts in FPSing. I've played them all, and for some reason this game attracts me more than any of the others. Even though others might be more notorious for their better graphics or revolutionary gameplay, this game always has me crawling back for more. It's realistic feel for the guns is unprecidented in my opinion, except for Tom Clancy's games. The action and overall gameplay of this game trumps Ghost Recon and Rainbow Six, however. This is mainly due to the many customization options available to suit anyone's play style.
And yes, IT'S ABSOLUTELY FREE!

There are hackers and glitchers gallore in the online servers. BEWARE! The devolopers aren't taking enough action again them, in my opinion. So yes, every once in a while you end up joining a game that's getting dominated by a hacker, which of course isn't any fun.
NOTES:
The game is getting better and better whith each patch that releases. There aren't many clothing customizations, yet, but it appears that many more options are going to arrive in the future.
