This was the first PS3 game that I have purchased for the year and i loved it. I don't buy a whole lot of games throughout the year, so i am really selective and try and get the biggest bang for my buck and this game delivers. The single player is fairly forgettable but still pretty and fun to play. The one main reason to play through it is to get a taste of some of the weapons that are not in multi-player. The cover system really becomes a take it or leave it and even on the hardest difficulty is not really necessary. But the real meat of this game comes in multi-player. It take a little while to start unlocking some decent classes but i think that is for the best. It can be a little overwhelming at first but getting used to the controls and the way the multi-mission rounds work before you learn all of the details of the classes is important and i am glad they broke it up. Over all a great game and a must have for and PS3 FPS fanboy. It took a lot to pry me away for Team Fortress but the calss based element here are great. I am just sad that they won't be adding to the classes in the same way that Valve makes a commitment to a game.
