For almost two hundred years now, the French Foreign Legion has attracted adventurers from all over the world. One of them is Claude Boulet, a 26 year-old Parisian, brought up in harmony with tough street rules. The Legion was where he found his place, and it led him straight to the hellish African savanna. A revolution inspired by the African Revolutionary Group erupted in Ivory Coast. The FDSC government forces, and the European troops supporting them, were overwhelmed by a surprise attack. As a result the enemy possesses an impressive armory. Even worse is the fact that the rebels have taken over a transport of radioactive waste on its way from nuclear power plants. They now have enough material to create several "dirty bombs" that could threaten European countries. The risk of nuclear attack has forced the international community to intervene immediately. France has reacted the fastest by transferring the elite 13th half-brigade from Djibouti to Ivory Coast. Among the several hundred men is Senior Corporal Claude Boulet. Based on tests of character he has been appointed to lead the most difficult operation of the war. Never, in his darkest dreams, did Claude expect the trouble he found himself in. From now on he will always associate Côte d'Ivoire with the war path he had to tread in the defense of freedom and democracy. THE LEGIONNAIRE’S CODE OF HONOR 1. Legionnaire: you are a volunteer serving France faithfully and with honor. 2. Respectful of the Legion's traditions, honor your superiors; discipline and comradeship are your strength, courage and loyalty your virtues. 3. In combat , you will act without relish of your tasks, or hatred. You will respect the vanquished enemy and will never abandon neither your wounded nor your dead, nor will you under any circumstances surrender your arms. 4. A mission, once given to you, becomes sacred to you. You will carry it out to the end, and at any cost.

Code of Honor: The French Foreign Legion review
Ok, the game costs only $9,99 and I agree the gameplay is somewhat poor, but, for less than ten dollars, its a good way to have some fun. I liked very much! Speaking about the installation, there was no proble to install it, and the system requirements are minimal. You do NOT have to spend a lot of money in a super-hyper PC with thousends of Gigabytes of RAM, Terabytessss in Hard Disks and expensive gamepads, joysticks at all. A simple dual core with 1 MB RAM and a common HD is enough to play this game. Oh, and you do not have to STUDY the manual (I even don't know if the game has one, but it's not necessary. The movements are W-A-S-D keys, you shoot and look with yout mouse, thats it ! Simple, fast to install, no serial keys od L-I-M-I-T-A-T-I-O-N-S (blaaagh!) is DRM free. A good game that you certainly will like to play for less than $10.
Code of Honor: The French Foreign Legion review
It's just not a good budget shooter. Simple as that.
The gunplay doesn't feel right, it's short, it's boring, and the difficulty is silly - the only two modes available are 'easy' and 'hard.' I'll admit that these descriptions are true, but... where's the 'normal' setting? This just seems like a way to avoid having to balance the gameplay ("This is way too easy" "Of course! You're playing on easy." "This is way too hard" "Of course! You're playing on hard.").
I don't expect or need good AI from a budget shooter, but I can't help but mention the way enemies are constantly shooting at you even though you're miles away and behind several walls. They don't hit you of course, but they don't stop trying. There are other AI problems, but this one gives the best picture of what to expect.
And, of course, the graphics are mediocre, the animation is terrible, the audio is average and the voiceovers are hilarious (it seems the soldiers of the French Foreign Legion come from everywhere except France) - but I'm not judging the game on these, as it's not fair to hold a budget shooter to the same standard as Call of Duty or Half-Life 2 or that sort of thing.
But the gameplay? I'm judging it on that. And it's just not very good.
On the plus side, the demo for Code of Honor 2 is a big improvement.
