Code of Honor 3 - Desperate Measures Game Review

Code of Honor 3, another City Interactive game released in the year 2009. Compared to other City Interactive games like SAS Secure Tomorrow, this game has a different approach and a much, much more improved graphics making the gameplay more intense and action-packed. Well let’s start with the graphics. The graphics of the game is jaw-dropping. The environment details are very good like in rainy environments your surroundings really do look wet, and the animations have been improved. They somewhat used the same skins on SAS Secure Tomorrow, except with a few new weapons like the FAMAS. Just like their other games, your weapons can be modified anytime during the game. Now the characters have been improved and are well dressed and their faces look good now and their actions are better. Still, they need to improve the way they talk, it’s still not good.

Now this time they have a different approach to the game. Compared to SAS Secure Tomorrow, here, you still work with teammates but not in every mission in the single player campaign. It’s either you get separated or your squad mate get’s killed. Here, you work alone most of the time which somewhat made me bored. To make it a little bit worse, the entire single player campaign only has 9 missions which is short. However, they made the game more challenging by making the enemies much harder to kill, and the fact that you die very easily. Over-all I’d rate this game 6.5/10. So even though the campaign is short I can say that this game is still worth to try.

SAS Secure Tomorrow Review

Many people may not know much about City Interactive and their other games like this, but if you ask me this game is something you got to try. The game was released in the year 2008, and the graphics? Well, the graphics are amazing.

Now let's get a more detailed review, first, let's go to the environment details. Well, the environment details of the game are impressive and realistic. Now to the characters. The characters of the game are dressed well however they need to somewhat improve their faces and how they look whenever they talk. For a game released in the year 2008 you can’t expect the way they talk is like Half-life 10 years ago right?

Now let’s talk about the campaign. The campaign has 11 missions which, is most probably an average length. But for professional gamers the whole campaign can be short. The game is action-packed and less-demanding players should and are most-likely to enjoy this game. You have teammates all throughout the single player campaign, so you don’t get bored playing the campaign alone. Both your teammates and enemies are smart and creative. They will somewhat try to flank you as much as possible or pursue you. Good thing your weapon can be modified and equipped with a silencer and a scope which makes the job much easier. However, making a silent approach isn’t that easy because even when you kill the enemy with a silencer, he normally screams out loud and fire randomly then die which, alarms his buddies. The game has a very good story line and everyone would enjoy it. Overall I’d rate this game 8/10 and I also say it’s worth every penny.
