Playstation's hidden Jewel.

The Good
I REALLY believe this Game is one of Playstation's hidden jewels that mostly gets overlooked all the time by others because it's a Port on a PC franchise and it's a Strategy Game.However,if you're either a World War Two buff or a fan of Strategy Games(or both),you'll be hard pressed to find a better Game of this type on a Console.The story is immediately familiar because it's based on actual battles in World War Two.And even some ' what if ' battles that will make you salivate from the possibilities.There's Hundreds of Unit types to choose for your Core Army you control and gain Experience through out the Game with.The Battle maps are large and provide challenges to your overall Strategy.You have battle Animations for all Units or choose to turn them off.You can also choose a Hex overview of the Map or a regular View.The Voice acting is really quite hilarious to listen to before a battle.Scenarios of all the battles are always available for play. All Metals and Accomplishments are tracked throughout your Campaigns.And a Directory of all Unit types can be Referenced.

The Bad
There's not much I didn't like on this Game,however there were a few sore spots.The Music is catchy at first,but after awhile it becomes intolerable,and regularly cuts in and out anyway.The cursor occasionally wigs out on you and can't be controlled easily.Every time you select something on a menu,it makes an annoying shooting sound that gets nerve racking.And you can't play Scenarios with your Campaign Army.

The Bottom Line
A turn based Strategy Game of the German Army's Battles throughout Europe and the U.S. between 1939-1945.
