Battlefield: 1942 for Windows

Pros: Awesome graphics and realistic game play.

Cons: Power hungry game that requires much more than system requirements on box to enjoy it.

The Bottom Line: This game is fun but not intended for young children. System requirements guarantee you'll be able to run the program, it will take more than that to enjoy it.

Review: Last winter I got this game and became addicted to it very quickly. I am very interested in the history of World War II and the events surrounding the eventual triumph of the Allied forces over the Axis powers. This game gives some insight to what it ...

Pros: Great graphics and sound, perfect AI

Cons: A few graphical bugs

The Bottom Line: If you play multiplayer 3d shooters, you should already own this game.

Review: Battlefield 1942 is a first person shooter that perfectly combines action and strategy. It is set during World War II and you take part in fighting some of the actual battles of the war. What makes this game so fun is that not only will you play...

Pros: Excellent maps, full of variety. Different classes. Many vehicles and planes to control. Addictive.

Cons: People suck sometimes. Slow load times with low mem.

The Bottom Line: Battlefield 1942 is quite simply the finest action shooter ever. There's no "real" single player to speak of, but online multiplayer action of unrivaled quality sets this among the legends.

Review: I never really put much stock in action shooters. Through over ten years of LAN sessions, countless rounds of Doom, Quake, Unreal Tournament, Duke3D and a myriad other mindless blasters, I was always the one suggesting we play Command and Conquer or ...

Pros: Great models, highly interactive, variety, realistic, single and multiplayer both great.

Cons: Not the prettiest background graphics, little variety in music.

The Bottom Line: A must for WWII buffs, LAN parties and online clan games. Very realsitic in every way except for no visible blood or wounds.

Review: There are a whole slew of WWII themed games out there. Some like Medal of Honor go for a movie-like experience. Games like Return to Castle Wolfenstein are more survival horror than combat. Then there are games like Battlefield that go for realism. ...

Pros: Decent visuals, excellent control scheme, exciting battles, massive variety, great sounds.

Cons: Connection problems, steep requirements, horrible single player mode, few online morons.

The Bottom Line: Best online game ever and 2002 Game of the Year contender.

Review: A couple years ago, a game called World War II Online was released. I thought it would be incredibly cool to be able to take part as a single soldier in what has to be the most interesting war in all of human history. To take command of a tank and rush...

Pros: immerse gameplay that is easy to get into.

Cons: lag factors, certain bugs. me.

The Bottom Line: play this game. and run from me.

Review: Game Review and Features The construct: Battlefield 1942 is an online First Person Shooter (FPS), a genre that has become extremely popular since the release of the CGA franchise Wolfenstein 2D. Over the years, its appeal has made a jump to ...

Pros: Great online team gameplay, variety, fast paced, fun, addictive.

Cons: High system specs, uses gamespy, little bit arcade like, addictive.

The Bottom Line: This game is a great online fps shooter, good value and great replay. Really fun if you like counterstrike, day of defeat, or yuck WW2 Online.

Review: BACKGROUND

Ok I am not ashamed to admit I love war games, I have for some time. A while ago I saw an ad for WW2 Online, and I was enthralled by it. I followed this game from its beta stages to it going gold, and finally to its abysmal failure...

Pros: Brilliant, Wonderful detail. Exciting game play!

Cons: Powerful PC needed to get the full gaming experience, Prone to crashing with slow system.

The Bottom Line: Buy it! As long as you have a system the will back it up. Min 128 video card recommended.

Review: This is a brilliant game, and anyone who has played the demo will attest to that. It has it all - massive WWII battles, furious action, and more vehicles than you can shake a stick at. Nevertheless, this one will require a T1 and a beast of a machine to ...

Pros: Loads of fun to play online. Variety of things to soldiers and vehicles

Cons: Some annoying players in online games. Addicting(Is that bad?)

The Bottom Line: Buy this game if you have a high-speed connection and love online action games. The add-ons are great too. This game has caused my XBox to collect some serious dust

Review: I had seen ads for this game and was looking forward to playing it. Since buying this game, I have basically deserted all my other software (and my wife might say her too). Not really. Anyway.... This game is about action, teamwork, and variety. ...

Pros: Great controls, graphics, vehicles, online play is amazing.

Cons: Swimming takes FOREVER, needs a mid range graphics card, broadband is needed.

The Bottom Line: It rocks. If you have broadband and a decent computer, then get this game!

Review: The title is true. After playing this game for several hours at a nearby gaming cafe, I became obsessed and got broadband just to play it. This game pushes the envelope of online multiplayer games. One of the largest team-based games online, the ...
