Would be awesome if it wasen't so dull and short
One of the best parts is the game is the graphics. The game is in full 3-D and yet again it is detailed. Another cool inovation is the cover system. Activating cover is as simple as standing really close to a wall or other cover, and the cover is very useful if a tank is near or your just under fire by a chaingun. There are some missions where you play as a tank and it is satifying to blow up fleeing Germans or blow up other tanks. There are some cool little touch-screen mini-games, like using this meter on the touch screen to throw grenades, dragging a clip down to reload and changing weapons, which is decent. And just in general, the game is just a fun mindless shooter.
Oh...now to the bad. First off, the game is pretty short. I beat it on a 6-hour bus ride from my Chicago home to Michigan, even resting for a little over an hour. The missions are very dull, every mission is going from place to place killing Germans or blowing up a tank. The sound consists of only low-quality explosions and gun-fire. The AI is stupid and the game is so easy even on a hard difficulty. The game is frusturating becuase sometimes you'll be just doing stuff and then you'll get a fail screen saying that you "Failed Orders", so people with A.D.D may have a problem with this game. The cover system can be frusturating, becuase you'll try to get behind cover if you are badly injured but can't. The framerate is very chuggy, even though a handheld game is not expected to have a great framerate. Ok so overall, this is definately a decent game to rent and play to pass time. But don't pay $40 like I did for only a decent game you'll play for 5-8 hours then forget afterwards. Fans of WW2 games won't be extremely disappointed, but probably a little.
