What the heck did I just play?Turning Point has an interesting premise that is brought down by heavy glitches and bad AI

An alternate history WWII game seemed somewhat promising, and Spark Unlimited has made a WWII game before so it may be good. This was when COD was the only interesting WWII games (now Brothers In Arms is out too). It was heavily advertised and it sure had promise, enough of my yammering though, the conclusion is that instead of even an average WWII game they created a glitchy, broken mess.

I haven't played this in a while so excuse me if I forget some stuff. I'll start out by saying the only thing even close to good about this game is the somewhat interesting story. Beyond that there is absolutely no redeeming quality of this heaping pile.

I'll start out by discussing the gameplay. You play as a guy who kills nazi's with the regular WWII guns and special guns never before used in WWII game, the thing is, the guns shoot exactly the same as every other weapon. If these alternate history weapons were actually interesting it would be a good idea, but they shoot like every other weapon in the game. The game lacks originality even with the story that should change the gameplay.

The graphics are horrendous, if I wanted to play an old xbox shooter I'd pop in Black (even though that looks better). The environments are so dark and mucky and the character models blank expressions and pixelated skin don't help this game.

The worst part is how glitchy this game is. Numerous times nazi soldiers would just freeze, they became unkillable. Basically the enemies you fought locked themselves. That's not all though. Oh yeah, there's more. On occasions you'll get shot, in a room with no nazi's. You randomly take damage! No lie. Graphical glitches are also present. If you want to see all of the glitches you could play it, but I wouldn't recommend it.

Overall, with Call of Duty and Brothers In Arms on the market there's no need for this garbage. Even if COD and BIA weren't on the marker, there would still be no need for this garbage. It's nearly unplayable and completely boring. Don't buy this, don't rent this, don't even look at the box for this.
