WWII: Desert Rats is a good example of a budget game done right. Instead of being a substandard clone of a full-priced game, it takes a unique little gameplay twist and milks it for all it's worth. Like most value-priced games, it's a little rough around the edges. Fortunately, though, the central play mechanic is solid enough to support the entire game.

WWII: Desert Rats takes the drive and shoot idea and runs with it, and makes a game that is actually pretty fun to play, while it lasts. I would have liked to have seen many more missions included with the game, which probably would have raised the ratings a little further away from "maybe." The sound is substandard, and the graphics are average, but the improvements contained herein almost make WWII: Desert Rats a recommendable title for everyone. But, lest we forget the $20 price tag, which should persuade most fans of action/driving games to try this one out, despite how short the game is. Just remember to clean your smelly socks before depositing them into a crate.

All Game Guide
WWII: Desert Rats is a worthwhile budget title with the added twist of dual control of both the main gunner as well as his jeep and driver. The game fills a niche in the popular military third-person shooter genre, and for the price is a decent entry. For gamers looking at a quick budget fix for their military shoot 'em up needs, Desert Rats isn't a bad choice.

Ceci dit, pour ce qu'il y a à voir. Techniquement, le jeu semble surgir du passé, mais alors lointain le passé, genre 6 ou 7 ans. Les textures sont... euh, y en a au moins des textures ? Non parce que j'ai un doute là quand même. Pour ce qui est des polygones, il y en a, pas beaucoup, mais ils sont gros alors ça compense. Quant aux cinématiques, je vous laisse seul juge, regardez les screenshots, moi je n'ai pas de mots pour décrire ça. Et pour finir, un petit mot sur le level design que l'on qualifiera de gros néant transcendantal, limite mystique par endroit. Mais n'oublions pas la bande-son, composée de musiques énervantes et de quelques speechs répétitifs et mal doublés. Bref, World War 2 : Desert Rats peut sans problème rejoindre votre ludothèque dans la section « mes pires erreurs », il en prendra la place du roi.
