  6.0

  Red River may not appeal to everyone – our sense is that it’s too hardcore for the console crowd and doesn’t have enough of a unique identity for the PC crowd – but that shouldn’t dissuade fans of the series or of modern-warfare shooters from taking a playthrough. If nothing else, it’ll whet your appetite for the slew of AAA military shooters coming soon to a TV/monitor near you.

  The focus is definitely on authenticity here and the looks, sound and some of the gameplay suffers for it. That being said, Red River isn’t a bad game at all and it does include a very enjoyable online co-op mode. I’d recommend this one for the more hard core shooter players out there looking for something with a more realistic approach.

  Make no mistake: the latest iteration in the Operation Flashpoint series has plenty wrong with it. But its burger-chomping, chain-smoking heart beats with a fiery tenacity

  6.5

  Operation Flashpoint: Red River is a decent first-person shooter with solid shooting mechanics and great emphasis on a tactical approach to the battlefield. However, the single-player campaign is hampered by poor AI that turns challenging missions into frustrating ones, and lackluster graphics sometimes erode the game's realism.

  Despite major flaws that can’t be overlooked, shooter fans should try this out
