Commandos is a refreshing, strategic and fun little game that comes at a good price without feeling like a budget title.

I was a little doubtful about how the much lauded Commandos franchise would translate to a First Person Shooter. The Genre is already overwhelmed with titles and typically developers are better off sticking with what they know best. However, I have to say I was pleasantly surprised and glad that I bought this game afterall. This is an FPS where you cannot just act but actually have to take a second and think before you frag. Situations have multiple ways of being handled and the ways you can go about them can be creative. The characters have good personalities even if they are a bit stereo-typical. Having the ability to switch between you commandos real-time to accomplish your goals such as switching to your sniper to take out searchlights so that you can then move your green beret forward certainly gives a refreshing element.

Most of all you can see they guys at Pyro really put their hearts and soul into this game (if there are any doubts check the making of video in the game) and I think that gamers should really support developers who try to break from the mold and do something different. At $29.95, its a good deal but the gameplay does not feel like a budget title.
