Which is your favorite World War II game?

[Sam25]

Mine would be :

1. Commandos 2: Men of Courage (One of the best strategy game's I have ever played )
2. Medal of Honor: Allied Assault

 

[Sho'Nuff]

I wax poetic for classic games, so mine would be Battlehawks, 1942.

 

[Malladine]

CoD2 probably, I felt like i'm in Band of Brothers or Enemy at the Gate when I played it multiplayer.

 

[Elcs]

Company of Heroes + OF...

Playing as the British, re-enacting the paradrop on Arnhem bridge in which my Grandfather took part... is a strange feeling be thoroughly enjoyable. The only thing that gets hurt in that re-enactment is my PC's feelings when I swear like crazy at it.

I've not played Company of Heroes, mainly due to my old PC before. Looks, like I'll like to buy it soon!

CoD1. made you actually feel like you were there.

 

[AmberClad]

Company of Heroes

 

[nosfe]

does Wolfenstein 3D count?

 

[Kromis]

CoD1. That was my first WW2 game.

Followed closely by CoH.

 

[Eeezee]

Grand Theft Auto - Poland

 

[Genx87]

1.Combat Mission: Beyond Overlord
2.Combat Mission Barbarossa to Berlin
3. Orinigal Day of Defeat
4. V4V series from Atomic

And for a giant laugh BF1942. Nearly pissed myself in laughter a few times at the stuff I would do with the vehicles.

MOHAA, 1945, and Wolfenstein

If you liked commandos check out Soldiers: Heros of WWII, its awesome.

My fav WWII games are between CoH, Soldiers and CoD1.

 

[BW86]

MOHAA

 

[BladeVenom]

Steel Panthers

 

[Chapbass]

Hearts of Iron 2, followed by Company of heroes and CoD

 

[Treyshadow]

BF1942 - Just for the size of the battle

Medal Of Honor: Airborne - The battle engagements just barely were better than COD2

COD2 - Great single player with a mulit to boot

I didn't really like Company of Heroes. It was an RTS that does give you the pace of a battle scene from an FPS. If I wanted to go from the top, I would just play commander in BF1942.

 

[BTRY B 529th FA BN]

loved day of defeat beta 2.0 through 3.1 then continued playing it for another 4-5yrs, left dod:s cause it sucks started playing Red Orchestra and now i'd say the most advanced WWII worth while game today is COD World at War

 

[spittledip]

COD1

 

[Schadenfroh]

Return to Castle Wolfenstein for single player
BF1942 for multiplayer, DoD 2nd

 

[Zenoth]

The original Medal of Honor on the PlayStation, I liked that game a lot, the first Call of Duty is close, but not as good, and the same thing goes with Company of Heroes, they're good on their own, but the first Medal of Honor was just epic especially for its time.

 

[badnewcastle]

Wolf 3d (mostly because there wasn't much like it at the time)

BF1942, CoD2, CoD1 all were good.

 

[lxskllr]

RTCW and MOHAA

 

[ZzZGuy]

CoD 2

BF1942 didn't have a commander. That came along in BF2.


What makes Company of Heroes so great to me is the amount of detail involved. The way you can direct your armor and the fact that you have to point them certain directions or a shot to the rear kills it. Just one small detail to a great game.
