Games tiscali.cz gave it 8+ out of 10, and in summary it is better then faces of war even when it looks same but all glitches were fixed, it has good scenarios and low pc requirements, terrible voice acting and it costs half a price of new games, basically it's another A+ game which will vast majority of players never plays because they have to play console nobrainers and even that everything in this game works perfectly it will die in shade of whatever is going to be released hype s*** this month.. I gues WiC:SA or something else...

edit: I just refreshed TG and voila.. WiC:SA review... 5/10 ;)

I have, it's very good but the voice acting is so bad it's hilarious. I recommend it though.

Gamespot's short-lived review of Men of War was unintentionally humorous as it was easily one of the most poorly written reviews I've yet seen on this site, and given past efforts, that's saying something. It was so poorly researched that GS actually pulled it after a poster in the Men of War forum pointed out the litany of factual misstatements listed in the review. You know it's got to be bad when even GS admits they screwed up and pulled the review.

I suspect the reviewer didn't even play the full game. Probably sat down to 15 minutes of the demo and hammered out a "review" in exchange for a paycheque.

That review from GS was unprofessional and poorly written to reflect feedback that some of these reviewersgenuiely are not completing these games before they distribute the review.

I think the person who reviewed Men of War was a freelancer. I've never heard of his/her name on this site before.
