    The ability to fire behind cover effectively in Vietcong is a notable feature lacking in almost every shooter game to date. [May 2004, p.82]

    As far as the controls go, I was left a little disappointed.

    Offers a glimpse at what American soldiers went through in Vietnam 40 years ago. But unfortunately it doesn't meet the normal expectations of a successful FPS and will quickly become another game in the crowd.

    An aesthetic surprise with great visuals and sound; and a huge disappointment of Gameplay and AI.

    Loved it, So much great memories, good graphics for the time, great atmosphere, I loved how grim they depicted everything. It's just one of those games that remain in your memories. Multiplayer was great too… Expand
