Hearts of Iron II: Armageddon

Call of Duty: Black Ops

While certainly a step up from Modern Wafare 2, Black Ops's only saving grace is the zombies mode.

It is widely aknowledged that the Call of Duty series has begun to decline in quality, as was evident from 2009's Modern warfare 2. Once again, the multiplayer for this latest COD installment seems little more than a reh... Read Full Review

Total War: Shogun 2

With a solid campaign and fantastic multiplayer, Shogun 2 is one of the best in the Total War series.

Few game designers ever get it right when they try to streamline their games, but Creative Assembly can now claim the title. Everything about the game is much more user-friendly and easier to jump straight into than any ... Read Full Review

Ski Resort Tycoon 2

Despite the fact that the game hasn't really aged well, Ski Resort Tycoon 2 is definately the best ski resort simulator.

Pros: - Large maps allow hours upon hours of building up the same resort and countless different ways to expand - A massive variety of buildings - An interesting first person mode in which you can actually ski on you... Read Full Review

Battlefield: Bad Company 2

A common question asked about this game seems to be whether it's better that MW2. the answer: by far.

I like to wait a few months after buying a game to review it. This gives me time to think about the game in more depth and see if it keeps me hooked for a long while. Well, the time has come that i make my conclusion. BB... Read Full Review

Hearts of Iron II

Though filled with many potholes and a steep learning curve, HOI2 sheer scope is enough to make up for it.

I will start out by saying that this game is only for hardcore strategy or WW2 fans, and if you are looking for a game to immediately dive into and love, or any graphical satisfaction, look elsewhere. When i first played... Read Full Review

Theatre of War

While an ok game in itself, if it's WW2 strategy you want, you might as well buy Company of Heros

Theater of war does have one thing going for it- the scale. There's probably hundreds of different units, and the maps are gigantic. It can be very satisfying to see your tanks rush over the enemy's trenches, crushing th... Read Full Review

Call of Duty: World at War

If not for Nazi Zombies, this game would just be yet another WW2 FPS, but a solid one at that.

I must say that i was a bit hesitant to play this game at first. being half Japanese, i didn't feel the desire to play against them or see them portrayed insultingly. I eventually did pick this game up, and i knocked mys... Read Full Review

Rome: Total War

Rome: Total War marks the undisputed hieght of the series

Rome was my first Total War game, and since that eye-opening first look at the integration of turn based and RTS gaming, i've played all of the games in the series. This game is still my favorite. It is the most balanced... Read Full Review

Empire: Total War

Definatley not the best in the series, but a good game none the less.

The downfall of this game (besides the AI) may be it's most amazing attribute. The graphics engine. While some select few who are willing to spend a thousand dollars on a gaming computer will be able to enjoy the stunnin... Read Full Review

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2

A good game in it's own right, but basically a dumbed down version of the original Mordern Warfare

After the revolutionary Call of Duty 4 and the addicting World at War, I was truly expecting something amazing out of MW2. In some ways, thats just what I got, but most of that was also present in the original modern war... Read Full Review

Red Orchestra 2: Heroes of Stalingrad

Unfortunately, due to a buggy launch and some bad press online, this jewel of a game was overlooked by most.

Red Orchestra 2 is nothing short of an amazing game. Though it may have hit a rough start, tripwire, as always, stands by their games and released a major patch, fixing many of the problems that were so prevalent at laun... Read Full Review
