I was OK with it until I saw the slow-motion-door-kicking-hostage-with-gun-to-the-head-saving scene.

I'm glad to hear someone want to come back on WWII time in games. Few years ago we have much more games like this but now we only play on FPS about there's no knowing war. Enemy Front will be something maybe not new but fresh on this kind of FPS. I think it can be great game. We see on June 10th.

@nights: id be more interested to play either from the german side or even the allied side if they portrayed the Allied Atrocities committed in World War 2. Now that would be an interesting game to play.

The subject of Nazi Atrocities is 50 years old now in popular media , but the Allied atrocities are nowhere covered in the media . Pretty non existent in games at the very least.

The only way I will be interested in a WWII shooter is if a developer grows some balls and let's us play from the perspective of German soldiers and portrays Nazi atrocities from the other side.

But no, let's play Allied soldiers stomping through Germans for the 1000th time.

Totally agree.

If this game is anything like Medal of Honor before it sucked, then I'll like this for sure.

Love WW2 games. Will definitely play this!

...................Also people who look down their noses at WW2 games - it's really narrow minded, give it a rest! It's a legit genre now, just like a medieval game or a rally game etc. If you don't like that setting then why watch videos on it then f**king whine about it?

I'm really tired of games and movies always portraying the good guys or the winners. It doesn't surprise me at all that hardly any games show America getting battered in Vietnam exist.

They really could have done something unique with the whole "Citizens are affected by war" trailer.

What exactly is this game offering me that I have not already experienced before?

I'm not saying that its not going to be good just because its in a WWII setting, I'm saying that there is no REAL new game mechanic here that we have not seen 700 times before.

Looks interesting. I see tinges of old Metal of Honor in that, with all the screaming Germans. It might look just like a triple-b level game, but that still could be fun. I have to say I have saved up some lusty nostalgia for WWII games again.

Last generation graphics and last generation design. I don't know whether games like this really have a place in my library anymore.

This is reminding me too much of CoD from what it use to look like before CoD4 to slow mo breaching, I just don't have high hopes for this game unfortunately.

Was that knife extremely dull and coated in a heavy nasal sedative and that's why that man looked totally unharmed after having it dragged across his throat?

Nice to see something news about this game:) I hope CI Games finished it soon. This trailer looks great. Much more interesting than the previous because here we can see combat style and how it look like in reality.

The WWII setting wouldn't be a problem if it was well made, but this just looks bad, both visually and gameplay wise.

I wasn't surprised by the tonal difference of the Dead Island trailer, and I wasn't with this.

Tech companies are being bought for incredible prices, WW2 FPS games are coming back, Microsoft launched a console to lukewarm reception... Yep, we're back in the 2000s.

It would have been cool to see a WWII game akin to this except a little more creative and beefed up on the next-gen consoles/PC. For the release of this game, it would be kind of rotten if the PC version is held back by the 360 and PS3. I guess they think the install base for the new consoles isn't worth it yet.

This is not the WW2 shooter I was looking for. I'm in the camp that wants to revisit that time period after such a long period of modern military clones, but only if the game is doing something new or looks interesting. This game doesn't seem to fit either of those categories.

Why is everyone still so up in arms about a WW2 setting? When was the last time a good WW2 game came out? We get upset about modern military shooters now guys, c'mon.

The world war 2 setting is fine IMO. People are too quick to jump on the " it's WW2 so it's old hat" band wagon. The way they handle the subject matter is much more important than the setting and after watching this video I can say my interest in this game went from marginal to 0. It not only looks generic, but it looks clumsy and on top of that the bait and switch they pulled with this and the last trailer is pretty dickish.

HOWEVER, knowing how marketing works, there could be an entire side to this game that we haven't seen yet that more resembles the kind of solemn tale they implied they wanted to tell. We'll have to wait and see.

Everything about this, including the name of the game, seems a little... umm.. generic?
