The score should definitely be higher, just like for last year's game. Desert Storm II is an absolutely immersive game that gives the player a load of fun, it is the classical example for a game that is more than the sum of it's pieces. As with the previous Desert Storm one can clearly see that it is a Take2 game thus seeming to be a cousin of H&D. The gaphics are almost the same like in the first release, the uniforms of your team look a little bit better, some effects were added and the game world may look a little bit more detailed. The sound also seems to have received some slight improvements, all in all very nice. Gameplay is intuitive. Charactermovement and team control are pretty much the same like in the first game with the addition that you can roll left and right while lying, which gives the player a nice advantage in certain situations. Some invetory items have been added such as phosphorous grenades and a wrench(representative of a repair kit) to fix damaged vehicles. You will encouter an improved AI and this time trying to stay stealthy is more rewarding. When I compare this game to other squad based tactical games, I must say no matter how much I like Ghost Recon, I like Desert Storm II at least as much. With this years release, that by the way doesn't look, play or feel like it was rushed at all, you will get a game that is totally immersive, quite fast paced at times and just super fun. Desert Storm rocks.
