@@neumann1940 Yes, but the fact that EA at one time allowed and assisted in great games like this being made without creative restrictions is a far cry from the current EA. This era of gaming is unfortunately long-gone.
@@Ehrmantraut-Mike EA started to collapse after they threw awesome games like BadCompany 2 - even Generals they had a project by 2013 that was looking great but due to their idiocy they canceled it , after releasing BF4 it was the end for them as a company that respects it's reputation
Most chilling invasion scene ever. The soundtrack caries it so hard, the menacing tone it sets as one sub makes its way into frame, but then it's like: Oh it's fine there's only one... Ohhhh f*ck... it's in invasion.
I always thought there must have been some sort of coup d'é·tat of the US government within the games' lore before the actual soviet invasion based on the events stated in the intro. Especially the one about weather balloons. Even in the game the US military is never mentioned or shown. It's as if our own government sold out it's populace under threat of complete annihilation or something. I wish they would have given this game another installment. Fucking EA.
Not a coup d'état but the game manual stated (if I remember correctly) that the US politics became more left-leaning than in our timeline, allowing pro-communist sentiment in the leadership...also colonel Bulba said that the US retreated from foreign intervention to "entertain themselves to death".
My understanding is that the government surrendered right away because they had no chance of victory with the US being as weak as it was. The Soviets then rounded up everyone that was in the government and sent them to reeducation camps in Alaska.

@@TaitLawrence-xl2xb lol, what news do you have? That Russia has taken massive casualties taking and holding 20% of Ukraine in 2,5 years? Russia is a shadow of what the USSR was, and this game is Putins wet dream
Every time I started this game I would let this entire cinematic play
Who doesn't?
Only legend never skips this intro
Same here love this game. This must comes remaster for all platforms
Us man
Same 😂
I cannot believe that EA used to release games as amazing as Freedom Fighters.
Not EA , they are the publishers it's -IO Interactive , and all of those studios left EA because of it's dumb annoying policies

Was it Pavarotti or Paganini?

Freedom Fighters is my favorite game
Thanks to Jesper Kyd..🤟🤟❤
This was no invasion but a special military operation.
this game, along with Mercenaries, deserve a remaster
Freedom Figthers é um verdadeiro clássico/obra prima do PS2 não entendo como esse jogo foi esquecido, uma remake ou remaster seria muito bem vindo
fucking nice opening
All that’s missing from this intro are a few Kirov airships and mind controlled squids.
