    I think this game is a good title.It has its hard parts but over all it is quite good. A very good WW2 game.

    Best graphics on Xbox besides maybe the great Halo 2. Great gameplay. A.I. is great. Sounds are very realistic.

    When i first played this game, the first 10 minutes i said...oh no, i am gonna be disappointed. the action is bland and graphics seemed to suck. but now, having played it for hours i can say that it's a great game. the graphics dont bother me no more, because i see that it was done on purpose, like a classic style; which works well. the action is more free than people think; sureWhen i first played this game, the first 10 minutes i said...oh no, i am gonna be disappointed. the action is bland and graphics seemed to suck. but now, having played it for hours i can say that it's a great game. the graphics dont bother me no more, because i see that it was done on purpose, like a classic style; which works well. the action is more free than people think; sure there are scripted events and linear paths but inside that frame, you are free. the weapons and details and the atmosphere is the best of any war game. it really feels like you are trying to survive, rather than just kill everyone you see. the presentations are top notch, gameplay is fun as hell. i suggest you to go and see the "animation reel" they made in the extras screen, it shows the amount of animation work they did for the game, i realized that every soldier acts realistically...then, when i played the game again, i saw these animations in action, very amazing...this game is craft, like a water color painting, there are some levels in the game where the visuals and the comlexity of what you see around you will amaze you. and, i havent even finished the first campain!!!...very exciting. … Expand

    Me and my nephew played this straight thru as it was a challenge. The gameplay keeps you on your seat and unlike the just released Call of Duty 2 the A.I doesnt suck. You dont have squad members taking up all your fire like the sequel so to survive and beat the damn thing you have to hug every corner and attempt assualts from different paths. Buy this, rent the sequel.

    I just do not get it. Go on line when you have to go up against "real" AI. FPS's have never been perfect but as far as the graphics and actual historical value you cannot beat this game. Take the time to understand that this stuff actually took place over 50 years ago and you will begin to understand.

    I wanted to give it a 9.9 but it won't let me. This game is almost perfect. I really think that the Graphics really could be alot better than they are. Altho the Graphics are outstanding. and the the Cut scene graphics are an 11 out of 10. some Combat Graphics could have been a bit better. Overall I would have given this game a 9.9 outta 10. It is just a great game. This is the Best I wanted to give it a 9.9 but it won't let me. This game is almost perfect. I really think that the Graphics really could be alot better than they are.

    The shoddy A.I. and other flaws are rare or negligible enough so as not to detract from the overall enjoyment of an otherwise great game. [Jan 2005, p.89]

    The game's presentation is incredible... Unfortunately, the A.I. should have spent more time in basic training. [Feb 2005, p.87]
