I bought this game when it first came out and I played it non stop. The graphics are a bit grainy, but the gameplay is smooth. The missions objectives are clear, yet far from easy to complete.
I enjoyed the realistic missions that are presented in this game. From the first mission, Not one step back, to the end; you'll enjoy this game.
The AI this game uses for it's computer oppenents, The Nazis, is incredible. You can play this game over and over again, I did, and not have one play the same as the last!
The maps are incredible. In one mission, you have to get to the tractor factory using the sewer system. There are so many side tunnels that I found several places I had not been before during previous plays.
The weapons are great too. My favorite is the Mosin Nagant Sniper Rifle. It is great to get in so close and snipe down a Panzerschreck from the window of the tractor factory just after the Nazi has come around the side of the building unaware!
My favorite mission has to be The Bridge at Remaggen though. I guess because my grandfather was really there and the way he described how it was, I feel as though the creators of this game have done a wonderful job. Fighting your way across a half blown up bridge against overwhelming odds. A hundred Nazis coming for you, Machine gun nests firing at you, Snipers shooting at you and all that's between you and the Almighty is the weapon in your hands and the steel supports of the bridge. If you manage to make your way across the bridge, you still have the tower to deal with, filled with Nazis hiding in every corner and around every bend of the staircase. If you make it to the top of the tower then you still have to repel the Stuka bombers attack!
A perfect game on every level!! I give this game a 6/5!!!!!
