If there's one thing the series has always done well, it's audio. This is a THX certified product, and that means you'll never hear better audio in a current generation game. It's not just about explosions and fancy surround sound. It's the clarity of guns being fired. It's done so you can actually tell the difference between firing indoors and out. That doesn't mean the thrills of being in a war zone (being fired at from all directions) is lessened at all though.
This game seems more tuned to be a demo. Give players the Pearl Harbor experience to lure them into buying the full game. It would work as a business strategy, but consumers won't be happy after blowing $50 when the demo gave them what they needed. With the competition it faces now, this series needs a complete overhaul before it ever stands another chance.
