When first looking at this game, i did not like the whole squad absed action aspect. I preferred being the one person who was awesome enough to destrot my foes. Regardless i picked this game up. I found the game play very satisfying. Playing through it once i beat it quickly, and luckily without too much help from my squad. As i got into the higher difficulties i noticed the depth of the game. There were multiple ways to complete a single section, you could go one way, and have you squad flank, or just have the entire team mess with your enemies. The diffiulties are just about right, the easiest you can walk through, and the hardest you will be abusing your squad and using many medpacks.
A very interesting aspect is that what you do in a level effects what you may do in another level. Maybe there is a helicopter that is making you life hell. So you go to a map, destroy the helipad and then there is no more helicopter for the rest of that level. You dont necessarily have to complete every map when you complete cetain objectives.
One of my personal favorites with the game was just lobbing grenades at my enemies, their bodies would sometimes launch 40 feet in the air. Maybe not the most realistic scenario, but a fun nuance nonetheless.
Graphics i think are not what make a good game. Graphics are merely a bonus to me. This game does not fall short, in light of the next generation of course this game is not up to par. However, the models are smooth, the enviroments are beliveable, and there isnt anything that would strike someone as ugly.
Overall, this game is a must for tactical shooter fans. Its a little more complicated and childish compared to other shooters, but when i think of good videogames, and interesting concepts i think of this game.

    I like this game. A lot. Plot -not to get too political, but the story in Freedom Fighters could've happened (or could, maybe). Probably not exactly like the game (because the main character is a freaking plumber)... Read Full Review
