Facinated with WWII? This game is worth a try
The Good
The action this game takes you through as you land on the beach, all the way through victory in Berlin. Your progress will be displayed on a map as you fight through various towns, forests and other settings. Boss enemies are unique and challenging. The best part is that there is more than one way to get to Berlin so you can decide your own fate to a certain degree.
The Bad
There were almost too many enemies at times and it is somewhat difficult to finish the game unless you play it enough.
The Bottom Line
I wouldn't call this a completely historically accurate rendition of D-day or V-E Day, but the setting is very well done. I recommend it to anyone who is intersted in world war II
