Review: Bit disappointed with Call of Duty: Finest Hour, seems like game designers are churning out war games all day and not coming up with anything that sticks.
Graphics of the game are pretty tame, the sound does make up for this game a lot though.
The game starts of like most war game of this time as a large epic with loads of stuff going on you cant really take in all at once without having a headache.
Controls got some getting used to, the viewing distance is great as with most Xbox titles but because of the lighting and texturing can sometimes have you squinting at the screen.
Kills are satisfying but not gory if you like that sort of thing, the weapons are modelled will with good physics all round.
I would say controlling the vehicles in the game can have you throwing your 30 pound controller to the floor while Germans shoot the living crap out of you and you men. AI in the game is rather good for the enemy but your own men act like they have just smoked some wacky backy before battle, you will find them running in front of your fire, walking in front of tanks and being slaughtered while storming small buildings.
Bought it, sold it, wont play again.
You might be interested in the Conflict series, or maybe MOH, this is not special.
6/10
