its no call of duty but its still fun

User Rating: 7.8 | Battlefield 1942 PC
With the influx of games such as Medal of Honor, Return to Castle Wolfenstein, and Call of Duty, World War II themed games have become increasingly popular amongst gaming publishers. Sometimes it can be confusing then, to discern the differences between all of those games. Somehow though, Battlefield 1942 manages to successfully create its own niche, separating itself from the crowd of FPS games by establishing its own kind of ambience. Turn out the lights, crank up the volume, and give yourself as little distraction as possible; you will quickly find yourself tensing with a bit of an adrenaline rush as you strive to capture the next control point, or worrying about being the victim of sniper fire.
