    Let me start by saying I love ww2 games and really miss them, but it's hard to look past all the glitches and choppy frame rate. Story isn't that great but it pushes the game forward in an alright way. The game definitely has some good ideas taken from such games as far cry and saboteur and succeeds with the open sand box levels later on in the campaign but it does take some time to getLet me start by saying I love ww2 games and really miss them, but it's hard to look past all the glitches and choppy frame rate. Story isn't that great but it pushes the game forward in an alright way. The game definitely has some good ideas taken from such games as far cry and saboteur and succeeds with the open sand box levels later on in the campaign but it does take some time to get to those levels. Graphically, the game is quite poor. For using the cry engine the game fails and I was greatly disappointed. The shooting physics work well and for the most part the ai is smart but never really challenging. One thing I really loved was the soundtrack for the game, I feel like it made me continue around the countryside more happily then it should have. I would recommend this game to ww2 lovers but there really isn't much to come back for other than different play styles such as stealth or run n gun. Everyone should try it and judge it for themselves but it's a rental not a purchase.… Expand

    In my opinion the game is not bad, rather challenging and not as short as other shooters released in the last couple years. The graphics are not the best given that they used the CryEngine. There are places with low resolution textures that look quite bad for a 2014 game. I am mostly giving it a 7 due to the fact that it is a WW2 shooter game in world of modern shooters.

I am mostly giving it a 7 due to the fact that it is a WW2 shooter game in world of modern shooters. There was a time when most FPS games were WW2. I really like WW2 shooter and there has not been one in the last couple years except for let's say Wolfenstein New Order (that is mostly an alternate history FPS than a WW2 FPS except for the introduction). There is nothing extraordinary about this game but shooting Nazis in a WW2 background is really nice. So this is mostly a 6. I gave it 7 due to the story and timeline. Also the soundtrack is really great and it fits the game nicely.… Expand

    Coming from a true fan of WWII games, I enjoyed the game. But the severe over-hyping of the game by developers for failed promises such as breathtaking graphics and heart-pounding, never-ending gameplay really takes its toll on a game's score, especially after you get your hopes up.

    Everything in this game - from the trailers to its price just screams out what this game is - a low budget classic WW2 shooter. No bells or whistles, absolutely noting unique about the mechanics or settings - just the same stuff that was seen in all WW2 games before. Think COD 2 Big Red One and World at War or Medal of Honor serie. For some reasons it also reminds me of Project I.G.I.

No bells or whistles, absolutely noting unique about the mechanics or settings - just the same stuff that was seen in all WW2 games before. Think COD 2 Big Red One and World at War or Medal of Honor serie. For some reasons it also reminds me of Project I.G.I. This is the same simple stuff: just killing Nazis with a A LOT of weapons. The graphic is a mixed bag - overall it is not bad - not jaw dropping, but very picturesque sometimes, on the other hand the game is also full of low res textures. The developers are not very clever and they offered the ruined Warsaw as the first game experience. The ruined city looks rather ugly. The french or norwegian part of the game play looks so much better. Ai is dumb like in other shooters, not better not worst. The campaign is rather short, i was playing all night and i finished it on medium in about 10 houres. I had not encountered any game breaking bugs or crashes, once or twice textures took to long to load. The best part of the game is the story - it is rather compelling for a FPS, especially in a one that is not an AAA title. Gameplay-wise it is just old good shooter - they tried to implement stealth and sabotage as an alternative approach to the missions but who the hell cares if you can just load the MP40 and shred Nazies with that or headshot them with a Mauser? It also has a multiplayer mode, rather casual one for max 12 players. One thing I noticed - you die really really fast in multilayer while the single player campaign is rather easy on medium. Well, the multi is full of hackers anyway and there are only 3 maps so no point to bother with this mode.… Expand

    I paid like 3-4 dollars for this game so I can't really complain. I had very low expectations for this game and it exceeded them but it still has poor graphics, frame rate, characters, story etc. If you can get the game for under 10 bucks its worth playing.

    This game could have been a really good "thing" if more effort and time was put into developing this game.
    I´ve experienced plenty of faults and bugh during my walktrough. For example sliding from sprint trough texture, enemies could kill me thru two walls, i wasnt able to penetrate thin objects like bench. Game freezed three times so i had to restart whole console.

    Its really shame in which conditon this game came out, because the main plot is really interesting. We are playing in the Unit of Polish Resistance, something which hasn't been explored in WW2 games yet, so thats some + points.

    Level design is fairly good, you can tackle primary and side objectives in almost anyway you want. Stealth or straight action? Your choice.
    But the game is not forcing you to choose a stealth approach. I mean, there is no special reward for doing it... so why tryhard stealth when you can just run into enemies like some kind of "Super-Soldier-Journalis" ? The AI unfortunately bad as well. I would compare the AI to CoD2 or old MoH games, every German will just charge after you or they will run into spot, where you killed their comrade literally ten seconds before. Also they have no sense of hiding behind cover.

    Frame-rates are also a big problem. Optimalization for PS3 is terrible, i would like to try it for few minutes on PC (but only for few minutes).

    After playing this game through, you are not going to play it again. To be honest... i´ve bought this game in "sale" for just 2€. So for that price ? Yea it wasnt bad. It entertained me for one whole afternoon.

    Fair 6/10.    … Expand

    Among the rubble there are elements of what could be a good game, but it's not worth your time to excavate them. Technically disastrous, it lets down its own story. [Sept 2014, p.111]

    Enemy Front tries to narrate the Second World War through an unusual perspective, but it fails because of a terrible gameplay and an impressive amount of bug and glitches.
