    This is a game for rent without a shadow of a doubt. The shortness and the general issues with it mean I can’t really recommend anything else.

    Overall, Turning Point: Fall of Liberty is game which had some fantastic ideas and concepts. Unfortunately, the great ideas did not transform into a solid shooter.

    Shooting Nazis in the streets of three major U.S. cities should be a non-stop thrill ride that has me on the edge of my seat. This game provides the opposite experience.

    Although Turning Point had an interesting storyline, it still ends up being an incredibly limited and generic WWII shooter.

    Dumb AI, stupidly linear, crap guns... a disaster. [May 2008, p.79]

    Turning Point: Fall of Liberty is garbage. The game sounds terrible, looks terrible and plays terrible. Everyone who dares playing this mess, must either have a wall in front of his eyes or is being brainwashed by the propagandamachine. Even if you get the game for free in the local supermarket, you are not allowed to accept it. Too bad, because the storyline offers enough opportunity for a good game.

This game is a must-have. The graphics are semi-stylized, semi-realistic and fits the game well. The grapple moves and the human shields are awesome and the story is also great. So, buy this game and without ANY complaint or kiss my fair butt!… Expand

    Perfect example of great concept/poor execution. The game suffers from being heavily scripted, which in of itself isn't always bad, but Perfect example of great concept/poor execution. The game suffers from being heavily scripted, which in of itself isn't always bad, but its just painfully obvious. It also is piss poor graphics, reminding of of Return to Castle Wolfenstein, which must be 5 years old by now at least, and the lack of 1080 output hurts as well. The developers missed out on a GREAT chance to have somewhat open ended street fighting on the streets of American cities, and instead decided to rush out a objective based funnel that probably skipped beta testing.… Expand

    Yea the game is not great. Its not even good. But I'll stop short of saying its horrible. Graphics are glitchy and the level design isnt Yea the game is not great. Its not even good.

Some people will like it but you should wait til it ends up in the bargain bin which wont be long.… Expand

    This games is just bad... i tried to find some positives but its almost impossible.

    Only positive is story that is quite decent... but    This games is just bad... i tried to find some positives but its almost impossible.

    Only positive is story that is quite decent... but everything else is just horrible.
    Lot of bugs and glitches. Most annoying one is when you aim thru iron sights and you cant shoot for few seconds... enemies killed me because of that few times.
    Then you cant shoot enemies even if you have clear way for your bullet simetimes, because stupid textures (someone was probably lazy to add more polygons).

    Another chapter of stupidity is animations of soldiers.. i know its 2008 game, but still (if i compare this game to for example Far Cry 2 which is also 2008, the difference is just enormous).

    Shooting model is bad but not horrible. Your character is whole game in same clothes. So on start of the game you are worker witnessing invasion of Germans in red shirt and jeans... then you are being sended to White House in red shirt and jeans... and then you are going to kill whole top secret lab again - can you guess ? - yes, in red shirt and jeans.

    As i said in beginning of this review, i tried so hard to find positives, but in the end i definitely cant go higher than 3/10.    … Expand
