    I bought the game and was glad, the loney problem was not a lot of missions, i thought u would have been able 2 choose ur weapons b4 u go and do the missions and more new weapons like the m60, m16(not just the m16a203)m14 ,m4a1 ,fashbangs,cs gas ,and gas masks and i think it would be better 4 an extra squad 2 be included like the french .and 4 the uniforms 2 be better.

    I'm glad I rented this game instead of buying it. The graphics a poor, the game play is so-so. The only good thing about this game is the co-op missions.

I don't recommend buying this game!!… Expand

    This game is awesome but it could have used a few more changes.Overall, this game is one of the best action/military games ever created!!!

    I could agree with Robert E. in some points, but still this game is very enjoyable. Good Graphics just dont make game - game needs to be fun and DS2 have it. Of course there is some minuses like too linear and unlimited enemies, but still game is good.

    The subtle differences between the sequel and the already great original make it one of the better squad-based games I've played. Much more enjoyable than Ghost Recon.

    Pros: Powerful tanks with powerful weapons Nice damage modelling Cons: Insurmountable inventory Awkward FPS camera Fidayeen opponents Non-existent saves Terrible soundtrack Weirdo characters A lesson in pain

    Just Great. The bad thing is that there are only 10 missions.

    No great graphics, no great story line, very linear, but an absolutely great multi-player game!!! Probably the best one out there. Just a ton of fun!!!

    Underneath its tarnished exterior is a game that's surprisingly engaging and intense. [Feb 2004, p.83]

    It's rare that a game with average sound, graphics and an uncooperative control system can still be enjoyed for hours at a time anyway.

    If Desert Storm 2 has one flaw, it's that there are only ten maps and these usually channel the player down avenues rather than provide ample playgrounds for strategic experimentation. [Nov 2003, p.100]
