DaOgre 11-13-2001, 05:48 PM its a PC game that looked pretty rad...its like a cold war game gone real...I played the demo...it was groovy Turbostang 11-14-2001, 12:59 AM It's a first person shooter based upon the likes of Delta Force, Rainbow Six, etc. They have gone for the ultra-realism end of the spectrum, and have done very well. Everything is realistically modeled... and like Delta Force, death comes pretty quick. In fact, the two tend to play lot alike in some aspects. The premise of the game is that in the mid-80s, WWIII breaks out in the Balkans, with the NATO and Warsaw pact forces going at it. You can literally do ANYTHING in the game... you can be a foot soldier, drive a tank, fly planes, command forces, etc. There is only one thing about the game I don't really like, and hopefully in the future, someone will release a patch for it. Namely it has to do with clipping... it is possible to stand behind a wall for example, go prone, and find that you are now on the other side of the wall. That, and enemy AI is BRUTAL. I actually had a Russian soldier sneak up behind me at one point and knife me in the back.
