Freedom Force vs. the Third Reich Reviews

We can chalk up another pair of positive reviews for Irrational Games’ Freedom Force vs. the Third Reich. The first is at DreamStation.cc with an overall score of 8.5/10:

In conclusion, Freedom Force vs. The 3rd Reich takes the original game, and adds to it. I admit that the changes to the game were pretty minimal, so it feels more like a well-done expansion pack rather than a totally new game. I did get hooked again with this game, just as I did with the original. The few drawbacks are easily forgotten as you get drawn into the silver-age. The combat and interface are great, and you do feel like you are in the comic books. It’s a failure and far too much effort in the character creation department, especially when compared to systems found in other games such as City of Heroes. That being said, it’s a fun game, and the multiplayer aspects really add to the replay value. I recommend you pick this up, although you may want to wait for a slight price drop since it’s not really a complete new game, it feels more like additional missions for the original game.

And the second is at GamesRadar with an overall score of 88%:

And that’s the unconventional problem Freedom Force vs the Third Reich faces. It’s inspired. It’s genius. It’s superb. It’s overflowing with creativity. It sweats funnies. It will make you laugh and giggle and gape in one breath. It’s almost too much stimulation to handle.

But the real marvel of Freedom Force is that it’s a true game, an emergent comedy superhero moment generator. It creates brilliant scenes on the fly, then lets you feel super and heroic in facing them.
