    Awful, no fun to play, weak graphics, a real shot in the foot for the Conflict series.

    Simply abysmal all around. I wonder why they did not just took the very good (and very underrated) Conflict Global as a template. A different design team must have created this one - probably as a bad joke or user test or something. Afterwards they just released it as part of the Conflict-Series which is nothing less than an insult.

    I loved this game when it was 3rd person and fun. This on the other hand is simply unplayable. Luckily there is a demo but I would strongly recommend steering clear. Even the demo manages to annoy you. Pivotal, what are you doing...Go back to the roots of the series, it's a huge shame to see this franchise fall this badly.

    What happened to the unique squad gameplay? Having 2 guys isn't enough, it's stupid to play, the A.I is atrocious, and it's just grating to even look at, let alone play. The previous 3 Conflict games were excellent, and required you to think and plan ahead. This is just a brash, crap shooter.

    This game is really really really bad. I bought it on a whim and luckily for me my friend works at Gamestop so I was able to return it. I think this game would have been below average on last gen console and the fact its supposed to be current/next gen is a disgrace. Eidos has completely fallen off and now they really aren't even an average developer. The whole mechanic of this game was awful, switching back and forth between a sneaky faster player and a stronger rock. Also, the story, voice acting, character models and weak gameplay makes this the number 1 bomb thus far in 2008. Expand

  1. This isn't as cinematic or exciting as "Call of Duty 4," but for people who want to clear rooms instead of triggering events, there's a lot to enjoy. For bullet-junkies jonesing for a fix, it's a perfectly decent form of violent methadone. [Mar 2008, p.110]
  2. A disastrous entry for a previously well-regarded franchise. Not even for "Conflict" nuts. [Mar 2008, p.74]
  3. If you're a fan of Conflict and/or shooters in general, you're likely to find Denied Ops shallow and dull. The two-man control system doesn't work properly. The visuals are ugly. The script is sub-Armageddon. Yes, it's easy to pick up and play. But if you're after an experience with real challenge and depth, you won't want to.
