so far there is no game that can match close combat in terms of realism and gameplay .A true masterpiece worty of every of my 5 stars. A classic that caught my attention since the first time i played it.A true epic gaem simple hard-hitting and surprisingly fun. It has the best layout of the close combat series , a simple yet amazing gameplay capable of holding you to the last moment ,hour and mission of the game.
Instead of relaying in graphics, it took the strategy games to a whole new level were overall concept is more inportant then visual effects and graphics, were you can feel really what strategy games "should" be all about.
Its sad that close combat 3 russian front has no sucessors ,since SSI transformed it for for good and forever.
