FRONT LINES FUEL OF WAR DETAILS:Set in a fictional near future based upon the headlines of today, Frontlines: Fuel of War for the XBOX 360 brings players into the world's next great war. As society succombs to a worldwide energy crisis, a new global depression takes hold. Amidst this gritty backdrop, two superpower alliances emerge. Join battle on the frontlines of tomorrow as the Western Coalition (U.S./E.U.) or The Red Star Alliance (Russia/China).
Running on empty....
The setting and story for Frontlines is one of the immediate strong points for the game because of the terribly likelihood of it actually happening in RL, though Kaos has obviously taken huge creative license with it at the same time.
Basically, Frontlines is set on the backdrop of a huge resource war being fought in the year 2024. The oil is finally running out and humanity, which has never really pushed itself to look at the long-term, has no alternative. The introduction to the game sets the mood perfectly as a narrator explains what life is like in such a world. Farms cannot transport their food, vaccines cannot be shipped around the globe and overnight the world becomes divided into the Western Coalition and the Red Star Army of China and Russia.
Naturally, war breaks out and the last of the oil is pledged to the military – while the hospitals back home are going dark, the tanks are meeting on battlefields around the Caspian Sea where the last oil reserves are believed to be kept. It’s a powerful and important message and one I approve of wholeheartedly.
Despite being a multiplayer game first and foremost, Frontlines actually has a pretty decent singleplayer side to it as well. The campaign is made up of about ten missions set over the course of the war, with players taking the role as part of the Stray Dogs infantry unit who are positioned on the frontlines of the war and lead the assault. There’s no choice to change sides in this conflict unfortunately though, so you have to cope with only seeing the American and English side of the war.
Bottom line, this game has good graphics, solid action packed gameplay, and the story brings you right into a conflict that feels like it could really happen in the near future...
Who says a game has to be a AAA title to make it worth playing? Im all about getting immersed into a gaming universe. I believe that this game has been overlooked by alot of gamers, because of all the other titles that got released around the same time. Rent it, buy it, and kick some Red Star Army A** Lol Game On!
