Where to start... This is a great game for any fan of Insurgency or WW2. After all the futuristic games that have been coming out, it is great to have some WW2 action once again. Day of Infamy is a fun, immersive and realitstic tactical shooter. For those of you who play or have played Insurgency, this game is more or less a re-skinned version of that with added features and a variety of maps. Despite this fact, I would still recommend that you buy this game. Its fresh, its fun, and has a bright future ahead of it. NWI took all of the positives from the original mod and from Insurgency and made this great stand-alone. There are some issues, as to be expected with an early access shooter, namely the imbalances on certain maps. On certain maps, it is just a pain to be one of the sides. For example, playing as the Americans on the Normandy Beach map is terrible. The Germans have many more respawns and are also in an incredibly defensible bunker. Now, the Americans can still win on this map, but it is extremely hard to do so. It confused me as to why the defending Germans had 2-3X the spawns as the U.S. did, as they were defending their bunkers and barely died compared to the U.S.. This being said, I stil think that the game is great as NWI will continue to develop this game and fix said issues. This game is quite fun and I will without a doubt continue to play it.

Insurgency is an overall great first person shooter, however it is very different that your average "shoot em up" game. Insurgency is a very tactical game that requires skill and a fair amount of teamwork if you want to succeed. From a minimal HUD to a very fast time to kill, this game is very intense an draws you into the game. If you wear don't wear a headset, I suggest you change your ways if you intend to play this game, as it is an easy way to communicate with the team and is integral in knowing when enemies are around or near you.
With Insurgency, it is not just any shooter. You will need to play a few hours and learn the ropes until you are fully acclimated to the game, but the team-based gameplay and that fact that you actually need to use strategy will make you better at any game you try. Now, don't be scared off by the fact that it is different. If you are up for an awesome, challenging, but fun game, than give this a try. In addition to this, Insurgency is just plain out fun to play. It offers a new input of FPS games and is great if you are bored of Battlefield and Call of Duty like games.

9/11 would jihad again... Just kidding..

On a serious note, I would give this game a 9.5 out of 10. It isn't perfect, but this game is very, very fun.

Hope this helps get some new Insurgency players!
