Never has a war game made me feel so much in the shoes of a soldier. The game is brilliant, it really makes you feel as if you were there. It looks as if a soldier had taped a camera to his head while going through the war. Seriously. The graphics are beautiful when it comes to character models and certain objects such as tanks and vehicles. Every lighting and expression on their face looks genuine. However, the graphics aren't always that impressive when you look at minor things like the floor and bricks on the wall. But no biggie cause you rarely have time to gaze at the environment cause your always too caught up in the action before you. The gameplay has intense, non stop action that really gets you addicted. Yes, kind of like a drug. Every sound is perfect for the scenario, you will hear Germans yelling to each other while you and your allies all bum rush em, and hear your allies yelling to you the coordinates of enemy troops. What I also really dig bout this game is the fact that you have the ability to be all three main allies. The Russians, the British, and the Americans, all in that order. And the fact that you always have teammates with you makes it much more believable instead of having you as a lone solider destroying an entire army yourself. True, it is a little difficult for you to die seeing you have no life bar and your screen will glow red once your low on life, so just take shelter until it recharges. But still, I like the fact you don't have to go scrapping for health packs. It's simply just telling you, "You think your invincible? Get your ass down and take cover dumbass!" Though it may be a a little quick to beat mainly if your like me and play this game constantly whenever you have time until its done, I still got no real complaints. This is the best WWII game I have ever had played and it really makes me glad that they did this game right.
