 This is multiplayer paradise..... March 5, 2008
3 out of 5 found this review helpful
Look, maybe I'm old and crusty - as I've been at this awhile - but I've looked past the early, sporadic lag issues and occasional hiccups finding a server (these issues will surely be fixed, and are being fixed) - and I've found an awesome multiplayer experience.
If you've ever enjoyed any of the early Battlefield games (especially 1942) BUY THIS GAME. It's all about the multiplayer (the single player is a primer at best). HUGE maps, large quantities of players (especially for the 360), myriad vehicles, weapons, gadgets, and so many ways to creatively engage the other side. The 360 has been screaming for a big multiplayer experience like this. Don't miss it.
 Just play the multiplayer demo you can download from xbox live March 3, 2008

I must say, I played the demo and found it pretty good except for the very common lag, and many glithces. I could go on forever about the glithces this game has including: zooming in for a second after u zoom out, and as the other guy mentioned...i have also played a game of ring around the roses until i decided to find another room which had even more lag then the one before. When i played the actual game i was very disappointed that the glithes and lag that took place in the demo, which was launched well before the game was launched, was not fixed and was present in the game. The demo offers two maps with 32 player combat which I thought was very fun and much better than the game. This game is not worth buying. In fact, I sold the day I got it and redownloaded the multiplayer demo. My opinion: just wait a few more days for rainbow vegas 2 to come out.
Fun, fun,fun, Short, short, short March 2, 2008

SINGLE PLAYER OPTION
This is a fun and enjoyable game. I wish it wasn't so short--- 9 hours (without the cinema). I would give more to the rating if it was longer, but I do recommend this game. I think you will see shorter and shorter single player modes due to xbox live--this is not good.
Great weapon selection, pace of action and excellent graphics (not great-like cd4) makes it very much enjoyable.
I have not been able to unlock the special bonus extra: sp-street.
Addendum: The special bonus extra: sp-street was unlocked. As good as and some times better than any of the Rainbow Six terrorist hunts. Only two of these extras are available. :(
 Great FPS experience March 1, 2008

Frontlines: Fuel of War is a pretty good 360 release, but has a few small issues. First of all the gameplay is great and the storyline for singleplayer is very good, and engaging. All of the vehicles in the game really make this the ultimate FSP online experience. The multiplayer maps are nice and large, just as they should be. The blend of vehicles to infantry can sometimes cause problems while battling online (issue #1). Also, while playing online, you are only able to communicate with other players when you are in a squad with them (issue #2). Other than these small issues this is a great game that should be enjoyed by any FPS fan. Happy gaming!
Enjoyable Game with a few issues February 27, 2008

This game appears to pretty much be focused on the multiplayer with xbox live. Don't get me wrong, the single player is fun, story line is so so, but again the multiplayer is its "bread and butter." That being said, one would think that it would be near perfection in the multiplayer mode. It's not. '
1. City of Lag
It can be difficult to find a room without lag, even with their dedicated servers specifically for this Frontlines. If you get in a room with lag, you can shoot a rocket, and see it actually take off after about three seconds. Another player and I played "ring around the rosie" unloading about three clips and trying quite a few melee attacks, until finally one blow connected. You may think I am just a horrible shot, but find me on xbox live and we'll see! =) Once I switched around to a few different rooms, I found a good one. This room cleared up most of the issues of warfare.
2. Team Communication
This is a game based on teamwork, however the only team members that you can hear on the headset, are the members of your squad. Your squad can be no more than four people. That is a bit of an issue trying to coordinate with the rest of you other team.
3. Soldier to Soldier Combat
There are many vehicles, which are a blast! However, I wish the hand to hand combat was a bit more enjoyable. The aiming system is not so hot and sometimes it's just difficult to connect your bullets with the opponents body!
There are a few other little glitches that I have noticed, and I hope a patch will be soon to follow. If you can find a good room (a good connection) and get use to some of the odd controls, this can be a very enjoyable title. I have found the use of vehicles to be a whole lot of fun, and has really been the reason I even play this game.
