Reception
In IGN's 5.7 review, they criticized the lack of originality, the multiplayer portion, and the graphics, saying, "Hour of Victory is a mediocre shooter with bad graphics and terrible multiplayer"[1]
Gamespot's review was particularly scathing, scoring the game just 2/10 (making it the lowest rated Xbox 360 game on the site to date). The game received the following 9 demerits: bad sound effects, bad value, busted, broken and buggy, derivative, shallow, short, stripped, and weak story.
Eurogamer also gave the 2 out of 10, whilst GameCentral marked it even lower giving it only 1 out of 10. Maxim was, however, much more appreciative of the game, giving it 4 out of 5.
