That review seemed to be attacking EA as a company rather than the GERA game. Fortunately for the reviewer, most of the attacks they make onto GERA are for the most part shared opinions. I wrote this little ditty on another GERA thread and will post it again there.
GERA is a generic plain FPS and nothing more. It rips off all the good features offered by more respect games. I thought EA would be on a winning streak having perfected the Bond formula in EON, but GoldenEye is one step ahead of Agent Under Fire and a clear mile from tailing Nightfire.
Also just to add, the game is really ugly looking. The guns remain the most detailed aspect where as everything else is bland and just plain ******.
It is time for EA to throw in the towel. Pass on this franchise to a better deserving developer.
