Company of Heroes is an RTS that you don't see to often these days, When i first played CoH i realized that its foundations were built on alot of previous RTS games that we have come to know and love. But as i started to spend more time with the game, i realized just how much more this game took the RTS genre to.

The employment of the havok physics engine was simply stunning, there is nothing quite as cool as firing a shell from your tiger tank into a sea of courages solders and see them fly into trees and windows.

The tutorial is very straight forward and easy to pick up on, so you shouldn't have to spend a decade remembering hot keys and puzzling tech trees.

Although the campaign is based on historical events that we all have come to love and know about, you cant deny the thrill and action you get when reenacting these scenarios via a game, especially with one as good as Company of Heroes.

If you feel that story telling isn't your thing, then you could always blast away in a up-to 8 player skirmish, or a king of the hill style game play. Although my only complaint is that the difficulty may be a bit too troubling for newer players and that it may take some time to get used to.

In conclusion Company of Heroes is a wonderful RTS that brings back oldschool vibes and napalm new technology which will be sure to get you addicted.

- Have fun
