Hi guys, this week I want to talk about a third person shooter which is a bit special for me, since I liked it a lot and completed it 3 times, earning a space in the trunk of the best video game I have played until now. The video game that I want to share with you is called Freedom Fighters available for the platforms of ps2, Xbox, GameCube, however, the version that I played was for the PC platform. Note that this great game was developed by IO Interactive and distributed by Electronic Arts Inc in 2003.
The world of Freedom Fighters is set in a fictional version where the Soviet Union never dissolved at the end of World War II, because its nuclear power is incapable of bowing to any other military power, thus expanding communism throughout the world.
The story of Freedom Fighters begins as any day for brothers Chris and Troy who are engaged in plumbing work, They both go to the apartment of Isabela (spokesperson of the care movement with the reds); On the way Troy tells Chris about his concern for the Reds (Soviet Union) that are invading South America but Chris does not seem to care much as he is somewhat skeptical about the news.
The brothers upon arrival at Isabela's apartment are ambushed by a group of invaders belonging to the Soviet Union that is looking for Isabela, in which Chris is the only one who manages to escape but his brother Troy does not run with the same fate and is kidnapped. Note that the city of New York is under attack and Chris manages to free the hostages from the apartment and among them is Mr. Jones and along with Phil Bagzton proceed to break through and hide in a secret base in the sewers forming an anti-Soviet resistance with the aim of freeing the streets of New York from the invasion.
Freedom Fighters has an excellent visual aspect and the setting is really very good and gives us the feeling that we are really part of an anti-Soviet resistance group, the scenarios are well adapted to the theme of the game where we can walk the streets New York and even destroy some objects of our environments, the design of the characters can in some cases be repetitive but in general this detail does not matter too much since the game is visually attractive and even its special effects when shooting.
The climate changes and explosions are acceptable enough, the textures are somewhat pixilated in some scenes of the game or cinematics, however, all the content of the game allows us in certain areas to appreciate the creativity of this fictional story.
Freedom Fighters in a third person shooter with excellent game mechanics, since it allows us to have a certain precision when shooting (this varies according to the player), although the graphics are not the best and they influence the time to detect an enemy, this does not mean that its gameplay is bad, in fact it is very good considering that it is an old video game.
During the game, we can make use of various weapons, such as pistols, shotguns, assault weapons, grenades, incendiary bombs, etc ... In addition, we can have access to weapons with a very versatile menu that allows us to see in a simple way the equipment we carry.
On the other hand, our standard weapon is a pipe tool that allows us to access the secret base and move around the map at different levels that we have already unlocked or that are still under the control of Soviet forces, sometimes even we will use it to interact with our environment and activate certain mechanisms. It should be noted that we can return at any time to our secret base for supply through the sewers.
Likewise, the best thing of the game is its system of "charisma or heroic act" that is to say, to measures that we are progressing in the game and conquering new zone we can also be recruiting other soldiers to increase our rebel forces. These soldiers can receive orders from us such as maintaining a certain position, attacking a specific point and even deploying throughout the area, indications that are really comfortable for the player regardless of the type of platform in which he plays.
the symbol of the "lightning" means to attack, the symbol of the "shield" means to defend the position that we indicate and by the last, the symbol "arrow towards" is follow me.
Sample video
The soundtrack of Freedom Fighters is really spectacular with epic melodies based on operas that help us get even closer to this fictional world full of action and where the value for life and country prevails, in how much the effects of sounds are acceptable and something peculiar by the system of charisma that the video game has, the translations in several languages are well adapted to the type of game that they present to us.

History 9/10:
Freedom Fighters is one of those few games that shows us how things would be if the story had been different as we know it, the story can be something forced to get into action quickly in the game however it does not stop being good and totally captures our attention to have many hours of entertainment.
Graphics 8/10:
They may not have the best graphics of all but their high content and recreation of the combat zones with respect to New York are acceptable as well as the visual effects they offer us.
Gameplay 9/10:
The control of the character, as well as the role of group leader, is very simple to use during the action and interact with various elements of our environment.
sound 9/10:
The soundtrack of Freedom Fighters stands out for its originality in its melodies, which makes it different from the rest and as far as the sound effects comply with what the game poses, many hours of entertainment.
My final score for "Freedom Fighters" is: 8.7
