The game’s controls, the mechanics… everything. Everything in this game seems completely off. It has the standard multi-player matches, Death Match, Team Death Match, etc… but online play is not very good. The deaths rock, but other then that the game offers nothing more. The graphics are actually not that bad, but they are not that good either. Spend it on something good like COD4 or Halo 3. Gameplay sucks, the frame-rate sucks, menu’s suck. GCN Rating for Soldier of Fortune Payback (PS3, Xbox 360)ĭamn, this game could have been… well… better then this crap. Do not waste your time with Soldier of Fortune Payback. If you are one of the very few who do not own Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, buy that game instead. Spend your hard earned $60 on something better (like 90% of the other FPS out there). Stay away from Soldier of Fortune Payback, no matter what system it is for… Xbox 360… Sony Playstation 3… just stay very far away from it. So should you buy Soldier of Fortune Payback? HELL NO! There is no way in hell this game is worth 60 of your hard-earned dollars. Everything is so basic that after a while I just got bored, turned it off and popped Call of Duty 4:Modern Warfare into my Playstation 3. Plain and simple, Soldier of Fortune Payback is just as bad online as it is offline. So you will find yourself shooting your own teammates. As for playing online, I could not even tell who my enemy was! The red/green icons above each players heads had a tendency to just disappear. Luckily I just rented the game, but still… I even feel ripped off for spending $8 on this rental. I logged on and found about 15-20 other poor souls who actually paid for this terd. Online Mode is also pretty vanilla (“very plain” to those who do not know what vanilla means). But that is not enough to merrit a $60 purchase. They are pretty cool, legs and arms fly off, heads explode. The only good thing about Soldier of Fortune Payback are the deaths. It dips and drops like there is no tomorrow. The graphics in Soldier of Fortune Payback and not that bad, but they look dated next to other games. Everything is just like a bad nightmare, a $60 nightmare. You can only choose from a limited control scheme as well. It just feels off in every single aspect. The gameplay is all over the place as well.
From the top to the very bottom it reeks of vanilla. Comparing the two games would be a complete joke.Įverything about Soldier of Fortune Payback is just wrong. And as far as first-person shooters are concerned, there is no bloody way in hell that Soldier of Fortune Payback can compete with another Activision game, Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. Not only that but the game looks like a 1st generation Xbox 360 game. The end result is very bad.įirst off the story is very boring in Soldier of Fortune Payback. Soldier of Fortune Payback could be a victim of the developers rushing this game out the door to meet the holiday sales season. But after playing this game for a good day or two, I can’t believe how bad it is. And I had my hopes pretty high for Soldier of Fortune Payback. And when you can blend over-the-top gore and FPS then I am there. My Thoughts on Soldier of Fortune Payback (PS3, Xbox 360)… So how is the new FPS “Soldier of Fortune Payback” for the Xbox 360 and Sony Playstation 3? Let me put is simple… Stay away… Stay very far away from this one. Happy Holidays From the Gaming Console Network!.“Youtube Singstar Dude” follow-up… New Singstar video….
