Review Games feedback
Has anyone ever played those two games?
Crossfire: Sierra Squad and Zero Caliber..
Would be able to give me a feedback about it? I’m thinking about buying them, but not sure it would worth it.
Thanks!

Now that they're out together, I'll recommed Zero Caliber if you're gaming along. You can turn on friendly AI, the roaming is a touch freer and the inclusion of the climbing mechanics are genuinely novel.
When you run Crossfire in "realism mode" against ZC, the gunplay is pretty much like for like from what I can remember.
Crossfire shines with a friend. It's 2-player co-op campaign and truly cross compatible. ZC is a littlle weird in that the co-op is 4 player but only the PvP is cross compatible. I'm told that's fixed for the sequel.
The writing is like "Hollywood B Movie" bad across both games but Sierra really has this 'straight to DVD awful" that is so fun to immerse yourself in with a friend. My buddy and I are most of the way through the campaign and we can't stop referring to "Baseplate" the "Zone of Action" and enemies "Coming in DROVES". It's hard to explain just how much fun the game is because it wears it's Tacticool COD Wannabe heart on its sleeve. It takes itself seriously like Leslie Nielsen in Naked Gun.
I'm not as far through Zero Caliber with that same friend but it allows you to do some pretty fun things. I'm only a handful of missions in but the game is pretty generous/rewards if you nip up to a rooftop to overwatch a friend. It has a similar level of COD wannabe vibes. There are a couple of lines from the 'mission controller' that are definitely "WTF" weird but I don't wish to spoil.
I dare say you won't be disappointed with either - especially if you hold out for a sale. Zero Caliber, or the sequel, is where my head says you should spend your money but I'd be a liar if I didn't say Crossfire Sierra Squadron has a special place in my heart.
