5 out of 5 stars Still Great Fun!!!   December 11, 2008

Despite its age this is still an essential game to own!! If you like large map MPS FPS or WW2 games this is a must.


3 out of 5 stars Don't Try to Fly   November 20, 2008
Denver Perkins (Argentina)
This is, overall, a great game. However, I have an iMac. Following some advice from the Internet I bought a Logitech 3D Extreme Joystick. It is very difficult to fly the planes with a mouse. The engine is either on or off, and pulling out of a dive takes so many mouse swipes you frequently crash. My iMac won't recognized the Logitech joystick (although the vendor assured me it would). I called ASPYR and they told me the game cannot be played with a joystick. I called Logitech. After three tries, and only one answer (total 57 minutes listening to "please hold") a nice person tried to help me and failed to get anywhere at all. He advised I buy something called USB Overdrive, a program that supposed interfaces between all joysticks and all computers. Didn't work. Overdrive USB has taken their email off their site (too much spam) and doesn't give a phone number.

So. It's a very good game, but don't expect to fly a plane with any luck at all.

I don't play a lot of games and I am a new Mac user as well. This plays great on my new MacBook Pro, 2.6 GHz, 4 Gb RAM, 512 video RAM, 200 Gb 7200 rpm drive, 17 -inch glossy screen Hi-Res. Smooth video and action. No problems what so ever. I'm very pleased.


5 out of 5 stars Great Game   February 9, 2008
E. Manwell (U.S.A)
This game is one of my all time favorite games! Although the game's campain is just facing the computer on a map. The game makes up for it by the killer 64 player online and the 35 vehicles you can operate. The online play is simply awsome, you can spend hours and hours on it. Another good feature are all of the mods for the game. The best one is called desert combat and is a must have! With operating this game i found no problums. No glitches, or any kind of problums running it. Although on 64 player matches expect some lag. Over all if you love 1st person world war II shooters, and great online play. Then this game is a must have!


3 out of 5 stars Punkbuster problems kill online play   November 4, 2007

All worked fine till I started getting kicked out of games because of punkbuster issues that are apparently too common and hard to resolve. Ruined the fun.
