Battlefield's formula for large-scale, objective-driven warfare is as intense and theatrical as ever against the haunting, archaic backdrop of World War I. Battlefield 1's single-player campaign is a short but pleasantly surprising anthology of small, human stories that does a good job spotlighting...

After its announcement, there were concerns that Battlefield 1 would simply feel like a re-skinned version of Battlefield 4 set in the early 20th century, but within the first few minutes of playing it, I knew it was just the opposite.

My fondest memory of war was, as a kid, sitting in front of what felt like a giant movie theatre screen in my uncle's living room staring up at Tom Hanks on Omaha Beach, paralyzed, surrounded by death, destruction and chaos.

Battlefield 1 will change the way you look at first person shooters. Utterly amazing.

Hype is a trend in this day and age that seems impossible to derail, some games live up to the pre-determined hype, while most fall flat on their faces in which the best they can hope to gain from that hype derail, is to be the butt of all jokes on endless internet memes.

It's War Stories campaign tells compelling tales; One of the best looking games you'll see; Full of unique and authentic weapons and vehicles of its era; Multiplayer makes you feel a part of something epic; especially Operations

Battlefield 1 is the latest the long line of first-person shooters from Electronic Arts and DICE, and the first I've actually been really looking forward to in a long time, taking me back not only in time to the 1999 original Medal of Honor , when I last really enjoyed a war game, but also in how it...

This is the best Battlefield I have played in terms of graphics and immersive story line. The online multiplayer is good with huge maps and great game play. This is definitely more fun than the modern call of dutys.

Why beat around the bush? Battlefield 1 is the best Battlefield game in a long time. It's got a surprisingly emotional and poignant single player campaign and the large scale multiplayer is fantastic – retaining it's identity while making some smart changes to gameplay.

Long load times; Framerate drops

There has been a trend in the FPS market for the last few years – a move towards a modern or futuristic setting. It makes sense as just over a decade ago there were more WW2 shooters on the market than you could shake a stick at, so a more futuristic setting was welcomed.
