More of the same, less of the good stuff...

By FatPipe | Review Date:
Company of Heroes Opposing Fronts was one of my favorite games of the year, and I had high hopes for the follow up...hopes that were soon gone and tout the door.

Graphics - Well, pretty much the same, which can be expected from a expansion type addition to the genre. Explosions were nice, but other than that it really just felt like I was playing the same game over again.

Gameplay - A couple of new additions, the ability to take control of a tank was nice, but short lived. AI was decent, but clumbsy and got a bit annoying at times.

Overall - I would have expected some nominal improvements to the game, but what I got was more of the same with the fun of the original gone.

Unless you are a die hard for the first series in this game (and I thought I was) I woud stay clear of this one.

    Short and Pointless. If this is what the consumer is going to be forced to pay for then I`ll rather spend my cash on toilet paper. The new campaigns are a joke, Any COH player worth his salt will chew it up in a hour a... Read Full Review
