Pure Un-Adaulterated Fun, WWII Action at its best.

This game is Pure Fun. It can be difficult at times, forces you to try nre and different tactics. One thing people need to get out of there heads, is that THIS IS NOT, I repeat NOT A SIMULATION. If you come into this with the attitude that this is a pure action, shoot-em-up game, then you'll have a great time playing HOTP, I sure did.

Some of the missions may have you leaving dents in your forehead from the diffucalty, but there all certainly doable with the right tactics. The Variety of mission types, as well as aircraft to fly thouse missions is great. Its Awsome to finaly see the PBY Catalina used in a game. Its hard to beat the feelin of flyin low on the deck in a TBM Avenger, dodgein the flak, tryin to line up for that perfect torpedo shot.

Graphicaly the game is great, not quite up to par with games like IL2, but they are wonderfull in there own right. The Game menu is great, with WWII area ads modified to fit a modern game menue. Brings a great nostalgic feel to the game.
