an authentic WWII RTS masterpiece

User Rating: 9 | Company of Heroes PC
I usually am not a huge player of rts games, but once in a while, i will buy one for something different. this one had been getting pretty good reviews, and was on sale at future shop, so i decided to buy it. I was amazed immidiatly by the detailed graphics and destructible environments. The gameplay was challenging but satisfying. the sound was incredible, especially how when you are far away on the map from combat, you can hear it over the radio. The campaign is a good length, and there are tons of skirmish maps ranging from 2 to 8 players to have fun with. Compared to other rts games, this one will kick you in the behind if you don't think about almost every move you make. i lost many skirmishes even with the enemy a.i. on easy. It's very historically accurate, i was informed by a friend who is a historian at the age of 16. overall, it's probably the best rts i've played (save WIC), and i urge any rts fan to buy it.
