Good for less than a fiver - Reviewed on 2007-11-12
Rating: ★ ★ ★ ★ 4 out of 5

Men of Valour. Its pretty sweet, especially the co-op mode, good fun for a night in or whatever. Sometimes a bit annoying when you get enemies running out of bushes which are off the map. Overall though, you'll get a few hours out of it, and its mildly useful for facts about the Vietnam War. As said in the review title, don't spend too much, but go for it if you're bored of halo (basically impossible, but you know).

I am really enjoying this game.

It is quite tough in places especially when you can only save at checkpoints. The selection of weapons is great and I believe is quite accurate.

Graphics and sound are good.

It's a straight forward FPS and I would recomend it as a great buy!

The last couple of reviews have summed the game up.
It really is a very enjoyable war simulated combat game. I have no complains about the game at all; great graphics, great game play, good sound and great atmosphere. I have played many games of this genre and this is as good as any of them. At its current knock down price it really is a bargain not to be missed by any shrewd gamer.

Ok, MOV..

It's almost impossible to create a war based game better than the PC version of Call of Duty, so to play any other game is instantly going to be worse.. whether it's for the PC or a console. However, MOV succeeds in some places that COD doesn't.

Outlook - I can honestly say that this is borderling "great".. the graphics are truely on another level in some parts of the game (eg. check out the water & pebbles). It seems to have all the ingredients of an intense first person war shooter.

Controls - Because it's on a console the controls are always going to tricky, there's no way around that, but you can adjust. It's no different than playing halo.

Computer AI - The enemies intelligence is almost annoying, in two aspects. Firstly when they're taking you out from within fog or from a place you can't even see; it's almost unrealistic.. & another criticism of the AI is that sometimes they can just be too dumb, the AI is nowhere near that of Halo.

Music - Mid-combat has a lot of perks for the avid fan.. the music and atmosphere that's set is second to none.. the screams of men being shot down, the inspirational words of fellow soldiers, it really does set the mood.

Weapons - The selection is excellent, tons of guns to test out on your enemies, you can also pick up, what looked like upgrades for certain guns which i thought was a nice addition, & Call of duty fans will recognise the russian PSHH automatic.

And Most importantly..

Gameplay/Handling - Although niggly at times, the gameplay is intense and will have you hooked. With all the above criteria's i've reviewed, they combine to make a gem of a game which is well worth your money.

Hope this short review helps out your decision in some way.
