Leatherneck Raiders is the vastly superior cover. The situation is tense with the claustrophobic surroundings and guns blazing in such a small setting heightens the danger. Plus we have focal characters whose expressions we can read and instantly identify the good guy, the hostage to be rescued and our various villains.
Sgt Fury, while it has a domineering low angle shot, is a crowded battle scene and difficult to determine what is important.
I'm with Erik - and the original doesn't have that Godawful competition strap - why would anyone shop at a store with such an annoying, wilfully ignorant name?
