I click my company of heroes icon and the game pops up. I click play campaign (having all betas and demos i think i know how to play so no need for toturials). the screen turns into the relic landmine which then turns upwards to reveal other landmines. it then carries on to reveal many-a LCVP landing craft bobbing on the water. the camera carries on climbing upwards to show hundreds of landing craft heading towards an almost peaceful omaha beach. switching down to waters edge, the bullets whizz past me and explosion erm explode all around me. a landing craft explodes close to the screen central landing craft and the bodies are flung high into the air and peices of shrapnel are blown in all directions. the craft stops, the soldiers pour out, the first two gunned down by the mg42's in the huge concrete bunker at the top of the hill above the beach. the soldiers jump into the knee deep sea water. a man is hit and falls into his friends arms. a fellow soldier shouts "LEAVE HIM!!" but the soldier tries to get his fallen pal into cover. he is then gunned down with a blood curdling scream. the rest of able company charge onto the beach. the mg's easily pick them off and as the bodies hit the wet sand the pace of the battle slows to one man. alone. sorruonded by bodies. he falls to his knees, presumably hit. then just as he leans forwards to lay in his final resting place the mg's fire at him. the bullets rip through the already dead body sending it falling backwards. the mist grows thick over the beach as the camera pans backwards to reveal the few men hiding behind the historically incorrect X tank traps (the germans used dragons teeth not X traps). then the rest of the landing craft arrive on the beach. the game switches almost undestictibly from the prerendered cut-scene to the essence engine. BEST....INTRO....MOVIE.....EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111ONE. the game is obviously about ww2 and is the only next gen rts out there. the game is too good for words (except them ^^). what makes it next-gen. the fact its the only rts ive seen that uses a proper physics engine and its general attitude to war makes u feel sorry for the enemy. it has the graphics of an fps and unlike most ww2 rts's it isnt the most annoying game EVER. it has ur basic base building but with one exception. the resources are magicaly created by buildings no they are magically created by th random piles of crates dotted around the map called territories. the game is well balanced but not to the point of rock-paper-skissors gameplay. the 2 'races' are very different in startagy and units. the doctrines and commands give the game an even more strategic advantages as if u have one infantry command and one armour the two could pound the enemy with artillery and then clean up with a tank rush. overall BEST GAME EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!111ONE
