    HOI3 was set up to be a worthy sequel to HOI2, but missed the mark with unnecessary lag and frustrating changes

    Being a massive grand strategy buff, I have always loved HOI2 (well, once I got around the monumental learning curve anyway), so after reading many previews and keeping a close eye on the 3rd games development my expecta... Read Full Review

    Damn Paradox for ruining this game with bugs and restrictions

    To start I am a great fan of HOI, the first game was a blast and the second one even better, but constant issues and bugs made it difficult during LAN play, but that aside the game was great. HOI 3 has made progress b... Read Full Review

    Great potential, let's hope the glitches can be fixed to make the greatest HOI

    Great game, despite its great number of bugs

    I really loved HoI II, and it couldn't be different with HoI III. The game is all polished from his previous version, since the graphics to the country management screens. Most of the things makes sense, despite one or a... Read Full Review

    Why?

    I may not have played other HOI games enough to get the full picture behind the complex micromanagement, politics, and war tactics that enthusiasts find to be the source of this great game. However i do know when a game ... Read Full Review
