Firefighter F.D.18 (Sony PlayStation 2, 2004)

I'm typically a sports gamers (nba live, ncaa football) with the occasional dosage of GTA type games so going after this title was a little outside of my box. I am so glad that I stepped out of my comfort zone, although the game's age is shown with the graphics and cheesy voiceovers, the gameplay is fun and challenging. It's highly interactive with the controls of Firefighter McGregor (main character) and the surrounding situations. I haven't beat the game but I plan to do so within the next couple of weeks. I'm a parent of a 5 and 3 year old so free time is scarce. Anyhow, back on subject. If you are into challenging games that are like no other on the market, this is the game for you. I can only hope there are plans for a 2nd edition or a new game line altogether that attacks the Firefighting world.

This is a great game, graphically realistic - makes you feel like you're actually putting out real fires! Great for kids and adults alike - my seven year old son wants to be a firefighter when he grows up and this is a great game to start him off :)

This game is highly sought after by many professional firefighters mostly due to the marketing. Apparently this game had a very interesting marketing from other Playstation 2 games. My son-in-law had this game on his birthday wish list with the mention it would be very difficult to obtain. He and his other firefighters at his station had attempted to obtain this game for their game room at the fire house. They had no luck. I bought this for his birthday coming up in September. Will be glad to add to this review once they have had a chance to play and as professionals give me their impression. Finding this game on ebay and seeing already it was showing as RARE.
More to follow after his birthday.

this game has great graphics and life like effects. some of the fires and things done are made up crap but it helps the game out a little. i bought it cause i am a firefighter and thought it would be cool and it was. i think i will still stick to the real stuff though it is more intenseand a lot less fake. over all it is a good game that everyone should try.

My husband is a firefighter so I bought this for him as a late Christmas present (at Christmas time they were sky high because they are hard to find). He loves it. It was used but in good condition so plays perfectly. He says it is a fun, intense game to play. All the other firefighters want one, too!
