Pretty Dang Good, But Lacking Aspects That Could Have Made It Great.

This is a very well made game, in regards to it's unique gameplay. With a mixture of RTS and FPS, it does well to capture the essense of WW2 combat. every unit is unique in how it can help to swing the momentum of each battle. Never underestimate a Destroyer or forget about those pesky Sub's. While some maps might be a quick fire fight of might and power, others can take over 1hr to complete.
It's graphics aren't 360 standards (originally a xbox game), but they do well to give the game life. Audio and game play are simply amazing, the 5.1 setup I have sounds amazing. Being able to barrel roll and still be able to hear where shots are coming from does get the blood pumping. Sadly enough, the developers didn't give this game enough depth, to give it longevity. No squad function hurt this game, how bad, for me, lots, but w/ the games cult following, I'm sure we can get something going.
