SoF also goes one step further to capture the cinematic spirit of shooters like Half-Life. With fast thrills and big kills, it plays and feels a lot like a pure-action shooter, but the weapon damage is much more akin to realistic shooters such as SWAT 3 and the Rainbow Six series. SoF is a semi-realistic shooter, treading the line between games like Rogue Spear and Quake II. ![]() ![]() Like Raven says in the intro, "This game is for mature audiences only." But before I go any further with the praise, let me go ahead and say that Soldier of Fortune is NOT for the kids. ![]() There's no doubt that SoF is the most horrific, bloodiest, and goriest games I've ever played, and although I'm not into perverse ultra-violence, this game really is a lot of fun. Creating a game like SoF took a lot of guts (no pun intended.okay, a little pun intended), and the title was so over-the-top that Activision decided to ship two versions of the game: one with full gore and a more "sensitive" edition with no blood or chunks. When I first laid eyes on the ultra-violent Soldier of Fortune (SoF) last spring I thought to myself, "Well, that job in the games industry sure was fun." I couldn't believe that someone was actually creating a shooter that was so realistically brutal, especially in light of the numerous debates over video games and violence that had begun to spring up in reaction to recent youth shootings.
