5.0 out of 5 stars AN EXCELENT EXPANSION., July 1, 2005

= Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: Vietcong: Fist Alpha Expansion Pack (CD-ROM)

Being a fan of FPS like Call of Dutty, Medal of Honor, Far Cry, etc. I consider this as an excelent game, let's me explain why:
1.- The graphics are some dated, but very cood. The jungle is very well representated in the game, the sounds are also very weel, you can hera the inscets in the jungle. In missions on the nigth, the refleccions are very good.
2.- The AI of the enemies are very good, they respond fire at you acuratly, take cvover and, in some cases, run away. When you die, the camera show you the enemie that kill you. For me is very frustaiting being killed for some sniper who is very well hiden and protected on the jungle.
3.- You team mates are very helpful. You giude a bunch of soldiers in diferent missions. In some you have to rescue a pilot who is being chase by the vietnamies. Yoa can send a soldier in front, who is very good detecting traps (also very interesting because are very well done, you can't seeit so easly). Also you can have a soldier who carries a lot of amunittion, and belive me, you need a lot of power tho finish this game.
4.- In combat, the action is realy furious, your team mates start to fire and in a moment, youy are involved in a battle who can be very long, until you kiled all the enemies, who, in some cadses, are hiden inside the jungle.

In all, if ypou like the original Vietcong, don't thik twice and buy this excelent expansion.

You nedd to have the original vietcong to instal this game.

In one word. THIS GAME IS ecelent.

No much to say here, and I still have not completed the last mission. To hard really it seems.
