Screw the critics! For the price this game is awesome! Sure, there aren't that many maps and yeah, there's some content deprivation, but other than that, this game can get nerve wreckingly fun in an instant! xD Me and my buddies, after watching a couple of YouTube videos, decided to all chip in and buy the 4 pack. We pretty much went crazy from there, and we practically played this game every time we met up after class. We laughed, we cried, we conquered. Even now, we're still playing! Even if you don't have friends to play with, the community has tons of people (or at least in my experience), so finding someone to play with shouldn't be a problem. For $25, I think this game is worth it. If you're THAT cheap, just wait for the Christmas sale in a few weeks. Hopefully, they'll add more content like extra sharks, gear, and player models, but still, I had a blast, and I highly recommend this game to anyone and their mothers.

I'm not going to write a full fledged review because most of the complaints you see here are the main problems and reasons why people hate this game so much at the moment. In the end, despite some of the issues, I did have fun and in no way does this game deserve a "red" score. Heck, once patched up, this game has the potential to be great, but until then, it truly deserves a "yellow" score. In the end, just buy Shogun 2 or the original Rome Total War, or just wait until everything is fixed by next year...
