Rambo!

I'm the kind of person who would probably enjoy the game, especially as a on-rail shooter. Just looks like balls to the wall fun. However, I was thinking of something either along the lines of Splinter Cell or Gears of War for this game.
lol. And I love how "co-op" is just having the two players controlling the same Rambo. That's got to be the cheapest implementation of co-op I've ever seen.
edit: nm, the other guy has access to a pistol. I needed to watch it a second time before I saw that.

Here's Simon Miller's (same guy as in clip) review of the game:
And yes, that's the review. He rates it "Rambo" out of 10.

Its getting very poor reviews, but shows surprise. But why the need to emphasis British? Come on.

To me, it was part of the humor of the clip. I like British humor. The one guy (Simon?) kind of reminded me of Ricky Gervais at times, for example in his delivery ("dozens?") and the infectious laugh. So the Britishness was just part of the fun for me.
Next time, when an american speak on a video, I will specific American guy playing COD. Haha. Just kidding.
I am a fan of British humor as well, they tend to be a bit witty, but can be very offensive as well.
Anyway, see if you can resist bursting out loud at the end of the clip. Old but classical British humor.
This one as well.

Long setup, but funny.
Here's a real review, if you care --
Game Informer, 4 out of 10 ...
"Developer Reef Entertainment attempts features like active reloading and perks, but nothing manages to detract from the overwhelming sense of cheapness. Everything looks, sounds, and plays like an on-rails shooter that still would have been crap in the mid-‘90s."
"... Things take a dramatic turn near the end of Rambo III, however, in a level that seems designed to ensure that players never see the final credits. .... One section in particular strings together at least four of these nearly impossible battles, with zero checkpoints in between. It’s absolutely infuriating, and bound to turn off the few gamers who wade through this garbage for that long."
"If you want to watch John Rambo mow through waves of baddies in violent and satisfying fashion, watch the final half hour of the 2008 film. Don’t spend your money and time to recreate any moments in this cheap, broken wreck."

I am a huge Rambo movie fan, but this game looks way too bad. I can't believe it is "on rails". However, I am sure during the summer steam sales it will be well below $10. I may give it a go just because i am such a big Rambo movie fan.
