    If you love real-time strategy but are getting a little bored of tank rushes and linear opposition then you should snap this up as soon as you can – it’s worth every penny and then some.

    What is really impressive about Sudden Strike is that it creates a more realistic battlefield than other RTS games without bogging everything down in statistics.

    What a Real Time Strategy is meant to be. 'nuff said.

    Atmosphere and dynamics of Sudden Strike are a reason why computer games remain more interesting than adventure novels.

    The levels look absolutely stunning on the super high resolution. I love the weapon effects and the destructible terrain.

    You have to mentally battle here, make decisions quickly and suffer the consequences of bad decisions. The single player game is tough; the online game is tougher.

    In a sea of disappointing and frustratingly similar games, Sudden Strike emerges as a rare gem.

    A solid game and a great introduction for those who are tired of the mindless carnage in RTS titles but aren't ready to cut their teeth yet in hardcore wargaming. Those who approach this game with a cannon fodder mentality will definitely be in for a rude awakening.

The feature to issue multiple commands while paused helps balance the fact that you are often in control of hundreds of units. It can be quite the challenge, as well.

Many This game totally kicks most other RTS games to the curb. It has stunning graphics and awsome sound which makes the whole game better. Many of the missions depict many real battles like Bastogne, Stalingrad, and D-day and even has a mission based on the movie Saving Private Ryan. All of the weapons and vehicles are real and if you are good at RTS games then you will have almost no problems beating the campaign mode.… Full Review »
