Call of Duty 2: Big Red One

As you can probably tell from the title of my review, this game fails to stand out at all in the category of World War II first person shooters. Not that it's bad, but there's also nothing good. Pretty much everything is just average, sometimes even to the point of generic. The music is forgettable, yet the sound effects are pretty stellar. While the graphics don't impress, they certainly aren't bad. The A.I., both that of your squad and your enemies, is just awful, as they will stand out in the open during a gunfight and they sometimes just flat-out ignore you. So all in all, this game can be perfectly defined by one word: average.
