This game was actually pretty good. The campaign had a bit of a lacking storyline, but put the difficulty up to insane and you can have a really good time. And the multiplayer was great
wow, an Arcade shooter that seems to NOT suck. i was massively dissappointed by Breach and Blacklight, but those games had a lot of hype for them. i barely knew this game existed, yet it looks pretty damn good.
@nuzamaki90 the original section 8 came out a year or two before reach and you could say this is a stand alone expansion so it is actually more original than reach
THIS is a good review. The reviewer mentioned the good and the bad parts of the gameplay and gave an honest opinion about the game. It seems like IGN gives any FPS without the words "Call of Duty" or "Halo" a bad review
@BlindColor360 i agree except with how ememies dont react at all to being shot. your mostly right but shooting someone will slow them down if they are sprinting in overdrive
@nbaumg I think the campaign is pretty fun too. But yeah, for $15 it's great. To put things in perspective, that's about the same price as a Call of Duty map pack.
@ShiftJay08 if you cannot see the similarities, then i don't think i can convince you, nor do i wish to waste my time doing so - i can already see that would be a lost cause.
@TheRavensfan2 Gotham city is fun but has small maps. This game has a lot more then they show in this review because they added modes once certain amount of community kills were achieved. It has the 5 hour campaign, conquest mode, swarm mode which it states in this video, plus skirmish mode and assault mode. The thing that makes this game good is even when there's no real people playing you can play with all bots&they actually kill&do objectives. They aren't stupid AI like in other games.
@BlindColor360 ye its more of an objective game and land keeping holding positions etc. Teamwork is really the major part of the game and i really like objective fps's. Aiming is not really what you need. It's coordination and communication. Fun game good for teams and clans.
the review seemed to get the compain and multiplayer mixed up. the compain is bland and short while the multiplayer is the whole reason you should buy the game. great game, buy it now! its totaly worth the $15
@FearedEX Compalining about reviews isn't usually my thing but it was rather scummy of them to not make a distinction between the qualities of awful singleplayer and rather fun multiplayer.
question: It's rated T for Blood, Language, and Violence. To what degree is the language because Batman: Arkham City was Rated T, partially for language, but I heard just about every "cuss word" there is in Arkham City. Just about the degree of language there in in Call of Duty. Please answer this for me.
me and some friends are look for a cool xbox live shooter where we can play a survival mode and some multiplayer would you guys reccommend this game for a group of 3 or more?
As he said there is only one multi-player game type, why are you sitting hear reading comments instead of trying to go kill 10,000,000 arm/section 8 to get the assault game type? On second thought why am I sitting hear writing this?
Yes I'd love to buy this game " NOW " but I just bought MORTAL KOMBAT Collectors Edition and rented Portal 2 yesterday and thinking of buy Portal 2 tomorrow. So $15 for this game is a great deal but may have to wait for a while. I'm downloading the demo right now so if its good as it looks I may buy it soon as I pick up Portal 2 I'll get some more MS points to buy this Section 8 that looks GREAT!!! \:p \:)
i played section 8 and was really disappointed with it, and i went into this thinking the same but surprisingly was delighted with the game. this and fancy pants adventures are great games
@TheChurch29 yes... i would... its cheap and you get a lot of content for your money... generally you play in squads of five so in my experience playing with 2-4 of your freinds gets really fun
how much does it cost? 15 dollars like the last one? if so then Hell yeah I'm buying this. I also can't wait for "Blacklight Tango Down 2" to come out :D
no offense, this game would be worth paying 60$, the first game should've been the price from this game.the first game didnt have much the way this game has.i would like them to to get it out on disc, i dont have online,i'd defently play bots on this game.
i recently bought fancy pants adventure and this and section 8 is still downloading but fancy pants was amazing i've already beaten it and i've got 800 microsoft points left so i'm gonna buy defiant map pack for halo reach.I love you MICROSOFT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@BlindColor360 all true but remember its the distant future so the guns might sound like that. for the head shot deal...... well.... ill come back to you on that. =P
Tribes.. hello.. is this my old favorite? oh nevermind.. reference halo as Tribes only had armor, build outs, vehicles, jet paks umm a bit before halo :P just wishing that tribes wasn't just vengance yet prejudice.
LOL This is kinda annoying! I got the original section8 for like £39.99 and now they have a better version for £15! Oh well, I guess its like a giant downloadable pack! XD
i feel bad for games like these. there going to get get buyers yeah and maybe a few fanboys but not as many as they would hope. all because they dont have a treyarch logo or an EA logo.
Here in 2019. I miss this game.
Like for a next gen remake
Of all the reviews from the big boy companies, this was the fairest review. Thank you for doing such a good job.
It’s cool it has bots so we can play when they turn off the servers
It is even better when there's at least one or two real human players :)
cant wait for ign review.
"we were surprised when we put the disc in and it wasn't call of duty. so 6/10
This game was actually pretty good. The campaign had a bit of a lacking storyline, but put the difficulty up to insane and you can have a really good time. And the multiplayer was great
One mode? There are four.
wow, an Arcade shooter that seems to NOT suck. i was massively dissappointed by Breach and Blacklight, but those games had a lot of hype for them.
i barely knew this game existed, yet it looks pretty damn good.
@RandomChannelCheese This game is a download only. The sales shouldn't really be effected by game being sold at retail.
Played this when I was like 8 or 9 and I thought it was a fever dream.
@nuzamaki90 the original section 8 came out a year or two before reach and you could say this is a stand alone expansion so it is actually more original than reach
THIS is a good review. The reviewer mentioned the good and the bad parts of the gameplay and gave an honest opinion about the game. It seems like IGN gives any FPS without the words "Call of Duty" or "Halo" a bad review
@BlindColor360 i agree except with how ememies dont react at all to being shot. your mostly right but shooting someone will slow them down if they are sprinting in overdrive
@Infinedy this one does not laggs if you still lag check your pc speccs
@nbaumg I think the campaign is pretty fun too. But yeah, for $15 it's great. To put things in perspective, that's about the same price as a Call of Duty map pack.
@RandomChannelCheese It's only 15 dollars.. you should be able to pick this up aswell as Portal 2 and MK.
i like that gamespot do not give ratings in their video reviews.
no it is much better than cod
I'm definantly getting this game, I'd rather spend $15 on this than five maps for a game that doesn't really need any more maps.
There is a HUGE mistake in this review. Swarm is single player AND multiplayer. Don't be deceived by the misinformation that it is only singleplayer.
@ShiftJay08 if you cannot see the similarities, then i don't think i can convince you, nor do i wish to waste my time doing so - i can already see that would be a lost cause.
I had the option of either this, or Clash of Heroes. I chose Clash.
This is one of the times that I wish XboxLIVE gave refunds.
@TheRavensfan2 Gotham city is fun but has small maps. This game has a lot more then they show in this review because they added modes once certain amount of community kills were achieved.

@wetcloth123 It's just the fact that the vehicles shouldn't really get stuck in the first place.
@RandomChannelCheese lol the game is $15 not $60, not really gonna hurt sales at all
@BlindColor360 ye its more of an objective game and land keeping holding positions etc. Teamwork is really the major part of the game and i really like objective fps's. Aiming is not really what you need. It's coordination and communication. Fun game good for teams and clans.
This game is more fun than most every $50 FPS to come out in the past 6 months so GET THIS
@RandomChannelCheese It's $15/1200 MicroPoints and it's an arcade game. It's fun.
@julza998 apert from the fact reach is part of one of the most original game series made
the review seemed to get the compain and multiplayer mixed up. the compain is bland and short while the multiplayer is the whole reason you should buy the game. great game, buy it now! its totaly worth the $15
@FearedEX
Compalining about reviews isn't usually my thing but it was rather scummy of them to not make a distinction between the qualities of awful singleplayer and rather fun multiplayer.
there's points for killing friends?
teamkiller0703 is going to have so much fun with this game.
question: It's rated T for Blood, Language, and Violence. To what degree is the language because Batman: Arkham City was Rated T, partially for language, but I heard just about every "cuss word" there is in Arkham City. Just about the degree of language there in in Call of Duty.
Please answer this for me.
the campaign voice overs are cheesy, but the game itself is quite good
Who the fuck picked their release date?
Same week as Portal 2 and Mortal Kombat????
Good luck with the sales!
@Hellfighter762 Remember- You can't spell "Ignorant" without "IGN"!
@MyEarlierComment I should have mentioned I mean "it's" to be "Section 8: Prejudice."
Hmm this looks like a cross between Halo, the Conduit, and maybe Killzone.
me and some friends are look for a cool xbox live shooter where we can play a survival mode and some multiplayer would you guys reccommend this game for a group of 3 or more?
Came here from the steam sale! Just purchased the game and it was worth the 3.74!
@Infinedy The game has no lag, try the demo you'll be surprised.
why is the background music the soundtrack of Distant Worlds?
played the first one on disc so this is a download?
swarm is NOT new,watch the desc of the original one in the psn store,i tzught it offered swarm TOO,sry just saying correct me if i am wrong
As he said there is only one multi-player game type, why are you sitting hear reading comments instead of trying to go kill 10,000,000 arm/section 8 to get the assault game type? On second thought why am I sitting hear writing this?
Looks Fun As !!! But whats with the bad quality...
Not a Pc version ?? :/ I had a lil fun with the first one..
@RandomChannelCheese u did forget that it's 15 bucks
Yes I'd love to buy this game " NOW " but I just bought MORTAL KOMBAT Collectors Edition and rented Portal 2 yesterday and thinking of buy Portal 2 tomorrow. So $15 for this game is a great deal but may have to wait for a while. I'm downloading the demo right now so if its good as it looks I may buy it soon as I pick up Portal 2 I'll get some more MS points to buy this Section 8 that looks GREAT!!! \:p \:)
are people still playing this on the 360?
I stopped talking the person talking in the video seriously when he started comparing halo
I want to point out, halo armour is no where near as bulky as this games
@1Bullet2Ki11s tango down2 will be a free to play game apparently.
I still play the original, so I'll definitely be getting this.
i played section 8 and was really disappointed with it, and i went into this thinking the same but surprisingly was delighted with the game. this and fancy pants adventures are great games
i really didnt know this was an arcade game i thought it was like the first one
how? what just cause it has a way better hit detection. just cause online is more fun. just cause theres so may more guns. is that why?
I just bought the game and found about 10 people... So yes but the numbers are dwindling
@TheChurch29 yes... i would... its cheap and you get a lot of content for your money... generally you play in squads of five so in my experience playing with 2-4 of your freinds gets really fun
everyone look up "dungeon defenders" for arcade. looks insane.
Does this still get a good crowd online?
@RandomChannelCheese well its is an extreamly good game especialy for 1200 microsfoft points
@nuzamaki90 yes, but then the first section8 was out before reach.
iz there a split screen
how much does it cost? 15 dollars like the last one? if so then Hell yeah I'm buying this.
I also can't wait for "Blacklight Tango Down 2" to come out :D
can you play swarm on split-screen?
no offense, this game would be worth paying 60$, the first game should've been the price from this game.the first game didnt have much the way this game has.i would like them to to get it out on disc, i dont have online,i'd defently play bots on this game.
S8 is actually on ps3 aswell: I'm downloading it right now
hmmm... this or cod map pack?
which one can i taaaake?
the tank gets stuck on thisngs yes but it has a jump jet
@nickster1318 im guessing you havnt played them have you?
Meh I'm getting Brink anyway and I'm definitely not going to get two FPS's in a span of 20 days.
how long is the campaign
do people play this game still?
I have played this game already... It's called Halo Reach.
this game looks a lot more interesting than the frist one and this one is an arcade game!
do people still play on the ps3?
i recently bought fancy pants adventure and this and section 8 is still downloading but fancy pants was amazing i've already beaten it and i've got 800 microsoft points left so i'm gonna buy defiant map pack for halo reach.I love you MICROSOFT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@RandomChannelCheese game is only $15
@BlindColor360 all true but remember its the distant future so the guns might sound like that. for the head shot deal...... well.... ill come back to you on that. =P
@BisonFTW It looks nothing like the Mark VI you don't know your halo
@BlindColor360
Head shots does do more damage.
@TheGamesToldMe great that people in steam(pc) dont mind as long as its good
Tribes.. hello.. is this my old favorite? oh nevermind.. reference halo as Tribes only had armor, build outs, vehicles, jet paks umm a bit before halo :P just wishing that tribes wasn't just vengance yet prejudice.
For this price, it's a thousand times better than Halo ROFL
@juansufyan it's available on ps3
Nostalgic
....when the fuck did this come out,all I knew about was portal and mk9
@buob1234567890: Even thats not a problem! The visuals for this game looks pretty good.
is this on ps3?
Do people still play on ps3
@infamousxmexican PSN is down so you better go check a store or a website where you can find information about it ;)
FINALLY! Somebody did it right! ( ;
gamespot should have more subs than IGFuck
This game is so underrated. I have a lot of fun playing this. And I think that it was generous for the creators to come out with 2 new modes for free.
Is it just me or is this review not very good. Well maybe I am just Prejudice...
LOL This is kinda annoying! I got the original section8 for like £39.99 and now they have a better version for £15! Oh well, I guess its like a giant downloadable pack! XD
@ShiftJay08 i can see the similarites in gameplay....are you so close minded that you cannot?
Hmm this game or Gotham city imposters?
i feel bad for games like these. there going to get get buyers yeah and maybe a few fanboys but not as many as they would hope. all because they dont have a treyarch logo or an EA logo.
