5 of 5 Fun game Saturday, April 19, 2008
Len from Des Plaines, IL
After a few adjustments, update all my drivers, the game runs smoothly with no problems. It is a fun game. I am no computer expert so if I can get it running everyone should have no problems. Was this review helpful?

1 of 5 Buggiest game ever Tuesday, March 11, 2008
A Gamer from Seattle WA
Kaos BANNED me from their forums because I posted the link where customers who could not get the game running could get a refund. I have never seen a game as buggy as this. There is not enough time to go through all the bugs and left-out features that were supposed to be in the game at release. There are THOUSANDS of people having problems even trying to get the game to load without crashing. The forum moderator (Mitch) banned me because I posted a rant (no foul language, etc.) and the link so others could get their money back. I am a gamer from way back, and I have a cutting edge system and know how to hotwire a game to get it to work, but this game was coded terribly.
Other Thoughts: Hey Mitch... can't ban me here LOL... There are a lot of people that bought this and ended up with a nice set of 50 dollar coasters, and the "support" from Kaos is non-existant. Back to COD4 for me. Perhaps in a year or so this might be worth looking at again, but STAY AWAY unless you are a glutton for punishment. Was this review helpful?
