Set in the near future, Frontlines: Fuel of War asks the plausible question ‘what would happen if our oil reserves were about to run out? As man kind is starved of one of its most important resources two super powers face off over the last reserves in intense futuristic warfare. Starting on the oil fields of central Asia this game takes players across the globe and right into the heart of Moscow itself.

Created in collaboration with a team of military advisors this game features over sixty different weapons and vehicles all based on real world technology being developed by the modern military. Players will be able to take the war to their enemy using everything from guided smart bombs and remote control combat drones to the good old fashioned assault rifle. The unique Frontline mechanic employed in this game ensures that the gameplay is intense and fast-paced at all times as well as giving players the freedom to explore the maps fully.

Featuring a gripping and immersive single player storyline spanning eight vast missions and an exciting multiplayer mode for up to 32 players on Xbox 360 and 64 on PC featuring a unique role and load-out system allowing players to customize their character to suit any situation making Frontlines Fuel of War a simply unstoppable force.

Frontlines Fuel of War: Special Edition features an exclusive hardback art book. You will also receive a limited edition t-shirt as well as the official Frontlines: Fuel of War soundtrack which lends its individual sound from a mash up of New Metal, Electro beat and orchestral tones. Just when you thought that was enough, you get a poster thrown in for good measure.

Not good enough
I got it because I thought it would be up there with the likes of CoD 4 but not even close.

Boring to the extreme: A useful time waster.
I understand that this is the first title by this new studio. Well it's a good first attempt, but not much more. What the creative team who put this together seem to have forgotten is that games are supposed to be more than anything, entertainment. Not a chore from beginning to end as this is. I bought this game when it first came out and paid the high end price, simply because of all the marketing hype. I broke my own rules by buying at the top of the market, and I've certainly paid the price for it. The graphics and imagery are good, and the team seem to have put in some decent creativity. But all in the wrong direction. It's not entertaining enough and it's too boring. No matter how hard I try I just cannot get to the end of it. I've completed 90% but that's about all I can manage. I've gone back to Halo which is much more fun. I only hope the studio take note of what's been said here and make amends on their later titles, that we pay so much for, only to be deeply disappointed when we get a dud.

Frontlines Fuel of war
right...firstly..this game had alot of build up..the trailors of it made it look like one of the best games around. When i got my xbox i decided i was going to buy it, but thank God...i didnt. i borrowed it off a friend...and if it was my own copy..it would of been snapped in half instantly. The accuracy of the guns is horrific. driving a jeep is the most difficult part...it only goes straight. once you crash....your screwed. dont buy this game. its a waste of money and a waste of your time. if you want a good shooter thats different to call of duty 4. go for Rainbow six vegas 2.

Get a GRIP GEEKS!!!!
Will you geeks get a life!!!!!
This is a brilliant game.
Can't really fault it. The graffics, game play and overall entertainment are superb.
What's more, look at the price now!! You'd be a fool not to purchase this game. The on-line play is awe enspiring....really!!!
Go out and treat yourself to a real gem.
Most of the reviews are average 4 stars, so go with it....you will NOT regret it.

Amazingly thrilling and thats without multiplayer!
this game is in my opinoin a master piece in FPS it has good graphics easy controlls (as this was one of my first games)and has a very good and realistic story line there are 7 levels on single player but each one has 2 parts each part at least 20 mins long. i have thoroughly injoyed completing this game and i havent used its multiplayer capabilities as i havent got xbox live. also when you kill a red star enemy they die in a sort of rag doll way. this game also has some really cool music and this game is even better when you buy the special edition as you get a load of extras i hope this review has helped.
