    This game just might revitalize the genre.

    A perfect game for those who are new to turn-based gaming but veterans might feel that it's still no different than last week's date.

    Basically, though, this is the same game as the original -- the differences being more units, a better play balance, new campaigns, a new leader-based combat system, and obviously updated graphics.

    If you're a fan of turn-based games or the Second World War (and who doesn't like the war?) then PGIII is definitely worth your attention.

    Nice game play, rich historical perspective and solid animation.
