Summary: Great Game
Review: I am completely hooked on this game. I find myself using any excuse to sit back down at the computer to pickup where I left off. The game is very challenging if played in one of the difficult settings. You can tweak the respawn to the point where the game is unplayably difficult if you want. Anyone who finished this in two days either doesn't work, sleep, or eat or played on either the easy or medium level.

I must say that this game raises the bar in gore factor. You can disembowel someone with a 44 magnum or grenade and they lie there screaming with their innards exposed and pulsating. Or you can roast the terrorists with the flamethrower. Their screams are--ghastly! If you can't stand violence STAY AWAY! By the way, the game does have password protected parental controls that lets you control the amount of violence.

...it's not so much KKK as neo-nazi. And I'd hardly call it pro-nazi propaganda since you spend your time blowing them away. In fact, you get to blow away all of your favorite terrorists from around the world at some point.

Loki did an awesome port. The install was painless, just a few clicks. Operation on my old TNT2 is flawless. Performance is quite impressive. The graphics are topnotch if not just a hair under Half-life. Overall for gameplay I'd recommend this as a must buy. Just remember you can adjust the amount of violence if you like. I've warmed up to the flamethrower though.

Summary: I Had No Problem Spending Money On It
Review: I have a 550Mhz AMD K6-II 3D Now with a GeFORCE 2 MX400 card and 256M RAM. While the game play was note worthy (I beat the game in two evenings) I thought the speed of the rendering engine was a bit sub par, mainly on the outdoor scenes It could just be my system, but Quake1/2/3 that I also own run at very acceptable and consistent framerates under linux. The graphic eye candy was very nice. It's worth the money in any event, at least in my opinion. Now if I can quit playing Q3A online long enough to try SOF multiplayer option...

Summary: Loki does it again
Review: I've recently downloaded the demo. It contains the first 2 maps of the windows version (which I also own). The gameplay is great! I'm using Linux X4 with a 3D Prophet GTS 2, using nvidia's Linux drivers.

Summary: Great Game
Review: It is a very good game for Linux, too bad Loki when out of buisness. I'm affraid there will be no more games like this for a while.

Summary: Worst Game Ever
Review: SOF for Linux is easy to install. Just remember one thing; copy the proper glide drivers from your /usr/../lib area to the game's local directory. Then use the "./sof +set ..." command to point to the drivers. After I did this on Mandrake 7.1 the game took off full speed ahead! Thanks Loki for bringing great games to Linux! Now how do I get that train hatch open?... Hmmm... Lock & Load!

Summary: Worst Game Ever
Review: This is the most nausiating game i have ever played and i play a lot of games. sick kkk propoganda, gore for the sake of gore which takes away from gameplay, no plot. gun twirling also makes me sick. I played this game for about 10 minutes and gave it to my friend who thew it out after about 20 minutes of playing. Don't buy under any circumstances, unless you are a violence obsessed vietnam kkk memember
