Summary

Greatest War game of All Time

The Good

I was totally In love with PG. And as a grumpy grouchy and generally bad tempered gamer that I am, I came up with all kind of reasons why not to try PG 2. I was afraid that the sequel would be just like so many sequels of other games. "Just ok" Much to my surprise when I tried PG 2 I found a winner. Hands down PG II is one of the greatest games of all time. Excellent options, first-rate graphics, and the classic ease of use that PG provides. It is very rare that a sequel will come close much less surpass its previous offering. However PG2 did just that. It is by far the superior game. Can SSI continue to surprise? I haven’t got the courage yet to try PG III or IV yet.

The Bad

Not a whole heck of a lot. I thought that some of the American missions on the German side were a little lame.

The Bottom Line

Everyone who considers themselves a War gamer or Strategy gamer should be forced to buy this game.
