If the original Soldier of Fortune games are remembered for anything - and let's be honest, they probably aren't - it's probably for being those first-person shooters where you could blow people's limbs off. Even though they were a lot of fun, with tight controls and reasonably intelligent enemies, they're still best known for being gory.
Now we have a new SoF sequel, and if it is destined to be remembered for anything -which it won't- it's that it too is a dismemberment-prone first-person shooter... and not much else.
