Unfinished garbage.

User Rating: 2.6 | Men of Valor PC
Vivenedi Universal must've had pictures of Erik Wolpaw (the reviewer) with a goat or something... it's a shame to see one of the guys behind the Old Man Murray site give a pass to big game company for releasing an obvious beta version of a game as a finished product. To say that Men of Valor has some "rough edges" is a gross understatement. Sure, the environments have a lot going on but they look awful compared to Far Cry which came out seven months before Men of Valor. Add in the fact that the texures are bland and completely flat, character animation is a pathetic joke (everything that the GS review glossed over and then some), and scripting is broken to the point that entire levels must be randomly replayed... does this sound like a few minor bugs that "keep a good game from become great"? Hell no! They're the type of show-stopping bugs that keep a crappy game from staying on my hard drive.
