| FPS, but with team management. The game is set on D-Day(June 6th, 1944) into the next few days. You play the rôle of a paratrooper and take command of a small troop of others. The teamwork is reasonably easy to manage, especially with fairly simple commands- mostly with the mouse. The atmosphere is thoughtfully done, colours muted, and stuff like rain, mud and sounds add to the mood. the whole style is quite cinematographic. |

| Despite that, it does have a number of annoyances: * It feels rather boxed in, towns have few routes that you can go down *You can jump, but not over anything, not even small logs. *All buildings in France appear to have locked doors * there are ladders but you can't climb any *They all have bullet-proof glass that is not transparent *Hedges are bullet-proof *High velocity bullets can be stopped by one hedge leaf *Levels load slowly *There is little of the physics/dynamics you get in Far Cry (and this is a more recent game). , |

| Despite my misgivings gleaned from the lack of eyecandy, and some glitches in the gameplay- the squad management is where the fun lies. | ||
