Enemy Front

There's multiplayer, but two or three people are playing it, leading to large empty maps, and an additional story mode on top of the main one if you absolutely can't get enough of the same old tired shooting sequences. Also, the game's visuals are about as old and tired, despite CI claiming it looks gorgeous. This is to say nothing of the graphical glitches and regular hard crashes, all of which do very little to further endear the game to me.

Enemy Front's attempt to show a different side of war is thwarted by awful AI and behind-the-times combat that can't support the emphasis it puts on stealth and sniping. The multiplayer could have been a saving grace, but it's so threadbare that a sizable player community seems highly unlikely.

CI Games don’t lack ambition – but they do appear to lack the ability to bring those ambitions to full fruition. A tragic step back from the above-average Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2, Enemy Front is a turgid, listless affair with far too many problems to recommend. Terrible AI, truly awful graphics and a dull plot add up to make this a World War II shooter that you’ll want to avoid like a Nazi death squad. Disappointing and derivative.
