"Silenced rifles don't supress. <i>ticticticticitic</i> isn't very intimidating." "Now you went and let some guy take you from behind..." Your header off the roof had me laughing harder than I can recall in a long time. As for the no M4 or M14 problem: It's the result of some licensing battle between Ubisoft and Colt, Armalite, Springfield or one of those companies. The result is they couldn't get the M4, and didn't want to call it "The Carbine" like they did in Ghost Recon. My favourite “Erik is dead again.” lines:

“Erik, you went and let some guy shoot all over your face again.”

“Silenced rifles don’t supress. ticticticticitic isn’t very intimidating.”

“Now you went and let some guy take you from behind…”

The bridge map is a great one, so is kill house. My only issue is with the weapon choices, too many "space guns" but yet no M4 or M14. enjoy it's a great game and keep an eye out for new maps. Kill House 2 is a tough one! Another great game! The bridge map is a great one, so is kill house. My only issue is with the weapon choices, too many “space guns” but yet no M4 or M14.

Mike had me rolling on the floor for most of the games. You may want to “Note” some of the funnier comments made during game play.
