Buyer Beware

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
The others have pretty much summed it up. I had eagerly awaited the release of this game for over a month and pre-ordered it. I have now learned that I will never again order a game based on hype. I will let you all buy them first and then base my purchase decision on your reviews! lol. Graphics are sub-par for a PS3 release. And there are some screwy things in the game itself - *)using ladders; you must be in the exact right spot or you can't use it, and when you are on the ladder, it looks like a cut scene *)pushing buttons and levers or opening doors; again you must be in the exact right spot to push the button or lever or open the door. Too close or too far and the game doesn't give you the option to do anything. There were times I ran around a level for a long time not knowing what to do next simply because I wasn't in the right spot to open a door or such I passed earlier. *)save points; if you die, you're gonna have to start over at the beginning of the level and do it all over again. Very very frustrating. And just as I was starting to get into the game and possibly give it three stars, it ENDED. It's the shortest game I've ever played. I wouldn't even recommend anybody renting it. There are too many other good games to play. Now I have to try to sell this on eBay and see if I can get some of my money back.

Better than what some reviews say

Some people are spoiled with COD4 that anything less than gets an unfair shake. This game is FAR better than Conflict Denied Ops.
Aside from graphics being a little subpar this is an action packed game. I would recommend this for a beginner or average shooter fan.
I got 20 dollars off of mine so I ponder if it is worth 59.99. I would say it is worth 49.99 or less, but is certainly a good purchase.

Such a disappointment

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
This game is an enormous disappointment. The concept of an alternate history is great. But the game itself is a huge let down.
The game is very choppy. Whenever it is lodaing it freezes and then skips. The transistion is not smooth at all and it takes forever to load and transistion. I have time to change the channel and check sports scores while it is loading.
The graphics are extremely rudimentary, almost square. We're talking first generation game console bad. They do not do the PS3 justice.
The controls are difficult to get accustomed too and confusing at times, especially if you've played other FPS.
I would not recommend this game to anyone.
It's really a shame, the PS3 has so much potential.

Felt Like A PS2 Game

This game feels incredibly outdated already. As many have pointed out in the reviews, Turning Point looks and plays like a PS2 game - the graphics are very 2001 and, to make matters worse, the game often pauses to load graphics scenes. I can understand that if the graphics are crazy good, but they look like they were designed for previous generation gaming consoles. Far too few weapons are available throughout the game and you often spend pointless minutes climbing up a ladder, hanging from some ledge and things of that nature - none of these things adds anything of value to the gameplay. Spend your money on something else.

Game is a good buy

I just recently bought this game and I really enjoy playing it. A lot is offered, like being able to climb ladders and you can also turn levers and things to help blow up stuff. Online is great. The shooting looks real, it is a great storyline, the graphics are amazing, it's not too easy or too hard. Turning Point: Fall of Liberty is just a great game overall. I recommend this game to anyone who wants a shoot em' up game with a killer storyline and great graphics, as well as advanced weapons and endless possibilities to what you can do.

this is an awesome game. I love it. the weapons are great and a lot is offered in online play. The campaign mode is cool and the graphics are lifelike. there are endless possibilities of what you can do, like climb ladders and throw people into the ocean. A great storyline too. It is by far the best "shoot em up" game I have ever played. I highly recommend buying it.

Could be better

The gameplay is very simple. You move through levels easily, but the action is very sluggish and video quality is very poor! The best example is when switching from "hip-fire" to "barrel-sights." Concept is great but totally missed the boat!

I big Disappointment

THis game had a great concept, and plot. But there was too many Failures and this game could have been great if they put a little more money and time into it. Like the graphics, gameplay, and the slow loading time during gameplay.

The graphics looks like a PS2 game, the gameplay is choppy and sometimes actions can't be carried out (frustrating)! Online only has like 3 or 4 maps to choose from ... I would wait to buy this game if it goes down to $30

I was excited to get this game, and it is great. I love the plot, weapons, fighting. It is a great game for beginners or advanced gamers. Anyone who wants a good game to play in their spare time, that has a little bit of everything in a first person shooter, should buy this game.

this game is off the hook. better than the other top selling shooting games out there. there is so much offered in this game, weapons, storyline, other things you can do. Turning point is a great idea for a game and it really came through. i love it, and you will too.

I love the detail that they put into this game. It is a game in an alternate universe and they really make the weapons and people look lifelike. Well done. The next best "world war II" like game since call of duty with excellent graphics

Refreshing WWII Game

Great WWII shouter with a twist. We invaded Normandy by beach and the Germans invaded US by air. Was a little disappointed in the graphics but seeing that when this invasion took place in NY in the 50's, it kind of grows on you.

Horrible Game!

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I purchased this game the day it came out, played it for 10 minutes and sold it on eBay within 24 hours. It was a bad game way behind its time. It would have been a cool game 5 years ago. Felt and looked like a PS2 game. The graphics are bad and it does not compete with the good shooters that are out there. I was excited for this game and disappointed after playing it.

Maybe it was the way you can shoot someone in the chest and hit the wall, or how the choppy graphics made this look like Wolfenstein(the OLD pc game) that instantly turned me off. I beat 2 levels and took it to sell. Even if it was 10 bucks that's $9.99 too much for it. It is terrible.
