    An Amazing World that is in Conflict

    What can I say about World in Conflict, it is an amazing RTS. Anyone looking for a good strategy game will definitely be in a treat. The game is a modern-military game, based on a what-if scenario. It takes you throughout the United States, as you defend against the evil Communist Russia. That game is in-depth while playing single-player, and leaves you breathless as the events unfold. The game is graphically beautiful, right down to the little marines you can see the minuet details. As well as the explosions, being equally amazing and beautiful to see. You haven't seen World In Conflict until you've dropped a nuclear bomb on someone/something, the shear explosion of the nuke will fill your screen and you with delight.

    Another amazing addition to the game is multiplayer. World in Conflict has a unique multiplayer playing style. You do not just build buildings and deploy units, in WiC you get "points", and with these points you are able to call in a dropship that will deliver them to the battlefield in 20 seconds. In multiplayer you go head to head with 16 players (8v8). Half take up the side of the Russians and half take up the side of the Americans. There is a lot to behold in multiplayer, with certain points to capture, while fighting off many other players and watching explosions and amazing tactical aids littering the playing field with explosions. Capturing certain areas gives you more access to drop newer units closer to the enemy, as they are pushed back.  The longer the game ends up running, the more of a chance there is to see the devastating power of a nuke.

    Fans of strategy games, and games from Massive Entertainment (Ground Control I and II) will surely love this new game. I promise you, you will enjoy every bit of it. I give it 5/5 stars.

      This is a game that took RTS games, and mixed in battlefield for good measure, this game is absolutely fast, and actually puts more "strategy" into the game than most other Real time Tactical/strategy games out there. The games strategy really depends on the role, and your teammates, if you have bad teammates that don't coordinate very well, or don't know how to play necessarily, then you are going to loose indefinitely, this is a game where you need to depend on your teammates. The gameplay i...

      The Cold War Can Be Fun 0

      World in Conflict(PC) by mrhankey on July 21, 2008

      So if World War 2 isn't your thing then what war fits you? Well there is Nam', that is if you want to play a game with no real conclusion. Perhaps you'd like a throwback to those good ol' Civil War or Revolutionary War days? Nothing says a good game like Nostalgia and guns that can't hit the broad side of a barn. So what? What war is left? How about a pseudo Cold-War? Instead of it being cold and boring, ala a competition in who can spend the most money, the Soviet Union decides to invade Americ...
