operation flashpoint: red river
thereinchs one chief reason why activisioninchs call of duty franchise is as popular as global sales figures illustrate: the “iinchm a badass” feeling, an adrenaline-based sensation of outright awesomeness that increasingly consumes todayinchs generation with every noob tube, quick-scope and killstreak. consequently, the more tactical, intelligent first-person shooters get stuffed to the back of the drawer like a sweater that just isnincht ‘coolinch anymore.
but despite the fact that glorified, hollywood-inspired ips demanding little in the way of brainpower dominate the genre, there still exists a community of hardcore gamers ravenous for realism, challenge and cerebral stimulation. codemasters recognises this, and the developerinchs latest operation flashpoint title has been specifically designed to satisfy this niche market.
