  1. There are legions of kids out there that want to be firefighters and this game offers a little look into that career.
  2. Don your big yellow hat and venture into burning buildings in this engaging firefighting simulation.
  3. Real Heroes: Firefighters is a entry level FPS that is a perfect start for both fans of the real thing and those seeking to get into the genre.
  4. Even for a budget title, Real Heroes: Firefighter is unpolished and sloppy. The experience picks up toward the end, but it's too little too late when you consider the monotonous trudge that leads you there.

    Who said real life was dull? this is a WAY more engaging game than metroid prime corruption that I just finished forcing myself to play for a couple of weeks after spending way too much money on it. firefighters is far more fun and interesting and varied. Expand

    Who would have thought it? sounds like shovelware, looks honestly kind of sub par (at least the water fx imho are sub par), but the gameplay, the dialog, the timing, the reality of it all, the story line and the actual events in the game are all really fun and immersive! This is well worth $30 or more. better than many $50 games on the wii. amazing graphics aren't everything, although these don't suck at all, they're pretty well between n64 and early gamecube release quality. but it doesn't matter, GREAT game! tons of fun.

    As always, gametrailers doesn't get it. as a budget title they dislike it? holy crap, have they played wii budget titles before? this is better than many games on the wii that are fully priced! yes their comments, while harsh, are correct, they're missing the point. this is a fun game and blows away the minigame crap all over the wii. VASTLY superior really. Expand
