Finally, a Civil War shooter
Just got this game and have played it for a few hours. I am a Civil War buff and have played quite a few strategic and operational Civil War games. This is the first shooter/rpg Civil War game I have seen. So far, it's b... Read Full Review

Rating:6.5
This game is decent enough to earn a rental playthrough.
Civil War Secret Missions is, as of now, over 4 years old and not as aesthetically pleasing as Black Ops 2 or Medal of Honor Warfighter, but COD 4 and Battlefield Bad Co. look much better and play much better than this g... Read Full Review

CIVIL WAR SECRET MISSIONS
Civil war secret missions is not the funniest game, but it cool for the most part. The game has many fun parts like when you are riding on a train with a gatling gun or when you ride a boat shooting at a town. You altern... Read Full Review

A fun but short game, good for a rent or bargain bin.
It's definitely not the best game out there but it has a very nice fun factor. It's a rather easy game and I had very little problems beating it on Hard difficulty. Enemy AI is simple and will at times just stand out in ... Read Full Review

A very nice shooter. Great graphics and immersive into one of my favorite conflicts, the Civil War.

Civil War: Secret Missions is somewhat fun while it lasts, but that isn't very long, and there are better shooters.
This game has a long name so I will simply refer to it as CW:SM. CW:SM is History Channels second attempt at a Civil War game, I have not played the original, so I can't comment about how it improves up it's predecessor.... Read Full Review

An immersive and historical Civil War shooter that is worth a try.
I came upon this game in my local BB store and thought I would try it since I own the first game "A Nation Divided" from Activision released a few years back. First of all you don't need the DVD in the drive to play ... Read Full Review

The first one was better
The first one - Civil War A Nation Divided was better. On the first one the graphics were better, the button layout was better and the story was a little better. That said. This is not a bad game. Both games have you... Read Full Review

I found this game at first interesting at first but after a while I gets to be less fun
