Nice review very informative, especially for..errr..'sim'ers
But I had to laugh:
"SimHQ Triplehead Approved Tactical Shooters
* Medal of Honor Series
* SWAT 3
* Raven Shield
* Call of Duty
* Call of Duty 2
* Ghost Recon
* Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter"
You put MoH and CoD in as tactical shooters! Man that made me laugh- just 'cos they are set in the real world it doesn't mean they are tactical- they are about as tactical as Quake!
:wink:

Unfortunately true tactical shooters are rare...

I will admit that I don't have a lot of experience in the tactical shooter realm, or any shooters for that matter. Thanks for the information; good to know.

Not a prob wasn't a dig or anything ;)
CoD and MoH are very similar and (due to spawning of enemies) force you to charge in, guns blazing often, you cannot sit back and snipe or they just keep spawning.The only way to stop the spawning is to reach a certain point on the map- Very low IQ stuff but also great fun :)
Tactical shooters, as you say, are rare. You could have included ArmA on the list- very tactical and works sweet with TH2Go
Anyway good review,
M1.9P
oh yeah you should try a bit of CoD4, as a 'sim'er I dunno if you are into a/c or cars but CoD4 does have a beautiful moment of playing a gunner in a AC130 Spectre gunship- much more fun than flying around in an F3 getting shot at thats for sure!

you definately want to but OFP and ArmA on that Tactical shooter list. they are supported and they are rather tactical.
