Blitzkrieg - A Tactical Strategy game filled with realism in every step.

User Rating: 9.6 | Blitzkrieg (2003) PC
BLITZKRIEG is what I always like to call "One of the Greatest Games for me" and now let me explain why. Graphics: The Graphics in blitzkrieg are pretty nice, (though artillery shots could be different each hit) and even the tanks look beutiful (unlike in some games) , the tank wheels look like they move,the little soldiers are perfectly made. In short: Graphics are almost perfect.

Gameplay: Hm. This is a tough one. While most people tend to use a rush-kill-win tactic,Blitzkrieg is much harder. It requires tactical thinking to actually win easy missions (along with a nice helping of luck), but harder ones need a lot of effort and awareness of your troops,as you will most likely be defeated for one small mistake. This game is unforgiving of mistakes. Reinforcments are scarce and little. Now,a common point is pathfinding. Lots of people complain about that, but I think it's good that pathfinding isn't the best,becouse it adds to realism. Honestly,many people want a typical game to be easier than it would be in real life. There are many types of missions in the game - From taking over villages,towns and cities,to ambushing enemy groups. While Blitzkrieg dosen't have special characters (A.K.A heroes) ,again,it adds to realism. War isn't won by some special man. It is won by general soldiers, that just fight for their lifes. Along with that the game has a wide array of troops,tanks and battle machines - from .30 Flak gun, to the incredible Panzer VI "TIGER II". In short : Perfect. Realistic,Great. More types of missions and remove a little amount of minor bugs would be great.

Sound: Very Nice. Nice music, Nice tank moving effects,Nice infantry talk (Non-translated,otherwise it would be unrealistic). 10/10 and no doubts.

so...Is this game worth spending money on? I say yes. It may seem like another horrible World War game,but it shines in many locations,that others fail. A great addition to anyones Collection.
