In the original ending of this Quick Look, Vinbo commits suicide while Colonel Gerstmann watches. Thank goodness they didn't go with that.

This game actually seems like it might be a fun bargain buy, but not for the price they are asking.

I thought this was going to be a bad FPS, as it turns out it is even worse.

I beat it last night. Nothing about this game is fun. I had high hopes for this game because I'm a huge Rambo fan, but this game is god-awful.

Wait, "Roll of Honour"? I will not tolerate such un-American spellings in a Rambo video game.

After watching the rest of the Quick Look, I'm inclined to agree. So forget my previous comment, this looks like a rotten piece of... well... shit.

Maybe making the game $40 was a way to get people into the same "it would be cheaper to watch all of the movies" mindset as Jeff and Vinny. So, perhaps this is less intended to be a game that people actually buy, and more of a marketing campaign designed to get people to spend money on watching the movies?

So, Far Cry 2 or 3 is a better Rambo game than this Rambo game.

And some of the reloading sound effects sound like someone eating a rice cake with their mouth open.

kill them all. it's the only way to make sure.

This game looks like it shares terrible. I was really interested but wow.

Characters, especially Rambo, are really done ugly. And you are emptying the state of West Virginia of every cop it's got!

Co looked purty.

BETTER YOU THAN ME!

I really need to see the original Rambo films. I hope they aren't as disturbing in their use of gore as the latest one.

It's almost comedic how different the first movie is from the subsequent ones. It's actually a fairly intense, dramatic look at a Vietnam vet with PTSD and society's ill treatment of him (viewed through the lens of some awesome action scenes) and Rambo doesn't actually kill anyone in it. The other two are basically propaganda action films that completely sellout the psychological drama of the first (the third of which is dedicated to the Taliban militia).

@wrecks: What seems to be your boggle?

There's a great stealth game in First blood and a great/dumb action game in Part 2 sadly this is neither.

I would subscribe to a YouTube channel of just 30-year-olds breaking down.
