PS3Vault writes: "There’s one chief reason why Activision’s Call of Duty franchise is as popular as global sales figures illustrate: the “I’m a badass” feeling, an adrenaline-based sensation of outright awesomeness that increasingly consumes today’s generation with every noob tube, quick-scope and killstreak. Consequently, the more tactical, intelligent first-person shooters get stuffed to the back of the drawer like a sweater that just isn’t ‘cool’ anymore.
But despite the fact that glorified, Hollywood-inspired IPs demanding little in the way of brainpower dominate the genre, there still exists a community of hardcore gamers ravenous for realism, challenge and cerebral stimulation. Codemasters recognises this, and the developer’s latest Operation Flashpoint title has been specifically designed to satisfy this niche market."
Green Man Gaming are yet again offering more than just a sale with a breadth of bundles to take your breath away! They released two games bundles featuring Codemasters and Digital Tribes. Also discounted are Thief, Thief : Master Thief Edition, Bioshock Infinite and Murdered Soul Suspect at 75% off.
Some mediocre - crap games there. Couldn't even include any Codemasters racing games? It's the only thing they're good at.
Including the Dirt series in the bundle would have been awesome but i wouldn't say they are crappy games. I liked Overlord 1 & 2 and both Operation Flashpoint are decent FPS the other one are so so for me.
Like I said... crappy to mediocre. I liked Overlord too. Didn't care for Operation Flashpoint. But eve liking Overlord, I have no illusions that it isn't a mediocre game.
Even though it's still technically a good deal, the whole $5 or £4 thing annoys me. Humble bundle doesn't do this. No thanks.
You can pay what you want for Overlord, its Raising Hell DLC, Operation Flashpoint: Red River, Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising, and Rise of the Argonauts. Paying $6 or more gets you Overlord II, DiRT Showdown, and DiRT 3.
Mobile & Apps: "One of the most underrated shooters of the previous generation was Operating Flashpoint: Red River for the Xbox 360, PS3, and PC. With all its problems, I believe this is a game that is worth playing, however, it is not too hard to see why the game didn't quite kick off, as it should have."
Loved this game, it was dumbed down from Dragon Rising but still an enjoyable game. Was still offputting to people looking for instant/non stop action
Ha! Some colleagues and I are actually planning on hitting this one up tonight. Great game.
"hey, everyone, here's another boring shooter."
it's ok to swim in the red river. but don't drink from it.
