Not even Mickey Rourke could've save this game.

Released: December 1, 2009
Visuals:
The visuals for Rogue Warrior are just plain horrible and dated and the detail to the character's and the environments were just so bland and so under done it was almost unbearable to look at or even play. So I'll get on with this part of the review and I'll start with the character model's in this just plain horrible looking game and I don't know how much of a budget this game had but it obviously showed the lack of effort in the character's and you may have heard this line from another review place but "how many time's do I have to the same guard over and over again" even when your character goes from a level that is full of Korean's to kill which they all look the same as the next guy that you killed, to levels that have Russian's to kill and the all look alike as well, so the character model's are just horrible and poorly done. Now the detail to the environments were not all that great either and in fact this is where the really show's it's dated visuals and I'll just keep this short and the visuals are absolutely garbage and are just plain horrible and could have used a lot more work.
Audio:
Now the audio for Rogue Warrior is probably the ony high point in this game with great voice work from ( Golden Globe winner and Oscar Nominee for The Wrestler ) Mickey Rourke and his voice over work for the character Dick Marcinko is pretty good and despite all the vulgar language which can get annoying at times but when you have a game that is as bad as this one I'm kinda fine because the voice work was the only thing that was any good in this game so I was able to deal with you might ba able to deal with it as well. The music for this game was pretty decent in this game but it was not that great either it was plain good. Now the sound of the weapons were ok but that's it and the explosion's was not that good either. So in short the audio for this game and it as great voice work, but decent sound effect's, so it's just plain ok.
Gameplay:
Now the gameplay for Rogue Warrior is just plain awful and boring ans as I said in the visuals part of my it just boring killing the same character models over and over, and the game is not that long you can beat the game in about a few hours and this game play's like the typical shooter with the of the gameplay mechanic's from the Rainbow 6: Vegas series with the cover system. The A.I. in this game is just horrible in this game and they will not hear you come at all, in less you shoot some thing and their is no point of the silence pistol even though it as unlimited ammo but even if you shoot some thing or some one near it they hear it but they don't hear you coming in most parts of the game. Well their is just on thing that is quite good in this game the close-quarter stealth move's was the only high point for the gameplay. So in short for the gameplay is just plain horrible.
Multiplayer:
Well the multiplayer in this game is well dead and it has only two modes and the are deathmatch and team deathmatch which could get boring after a while, the on-line community is dead their is no community no one plays this game at all on-line. So the multiplayer is useless.
Overall:
The overall point for Rogue Warrior is really pass on this game this game does not have much to do in this game with it's short campaign and with the on-line pretty much no one on playing it, it is not worth getting at all not even at 10 dollars, so pass on this title. This is just plain bad and not even the voice work of Mickey Rourke could not even save this game at all. This is game is just a bad example of a game publisher trying to rip-off the gamer's, just plain bad Bethesda and Rebellion you guys could have done a better job and made this game more playable.
