Video Game Reviews of Shadow Ops: Red Mercury (DVD)
Customer Review: nice surprise
Summary: 4 Stars
I took a chance on this game, having not heard about it in any of the gamer mags or websites. It's a nice surprise. What really hooked me are the sounds. Also you cannot save during a level; each level is long enough to be a challenge but not to rise to the level of super frustration. In this game you are a Delta operator assigned to find a suitcase nuclear weapon. That's pretty much standard first person shooter stuff, but this game does it well. Usually I can tell after a few minutes if I plan to finish a game. I will definitely finish RED MERCURY.
Sounds - 5/5
This game has gripping and realistic battle sounds with true ambience. Bullets swirl around you and explosions rock.
Graphics 4/5
Pretty good for this kind of game although not as good as the preview for Medal of Honor Pacific Assault. However you don't need a beast of a system to run it, so that's a plus.
Gameplay 4/5
It's pretty linear; there's always just one way out of a situation, but that's not so bad in this game, since levels are tricky and well designed. The big drawback is that the enemies are always in the same place. You simply figure out where they are and kill them. Rainbow Six scatters them randomly. There are some cinematic moments that are built in nicely.
Realism 3/5
OK here is where the game becomes standard. You have healthpacks everywhere, and your man can take a lot of damage before dying. Also there are respawn points where enemies emerge only after you advance past a certain point.
Overall 4/5
This is worth buying if you want a true shooter. I am enjoying it so far and will keep playing.
