4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent WWII RTS game, June 12, 2006

= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Blitzkrieg Anthology (CD-ROM)
I gave the game 4 stars as I originally purchased for online play with friends. Latency issues make the game unplayable (we havent had an opportunity to play lan yet).

However in single player mode, the game is very fun.

The graphics are vivid and remind me of Sacred. The controls are easy to learn, and most carry from one unit to the next.

The game comes on 5 cd's. the first 2 are Blitkreig, the next 2 are expansion packs, and the last is a special expansion pack.

The missions are reletively short with a limited battle field.

Terrain comes into play quite well. For example I had a scout/sniper crawling through some brush and his view of the enemy would flicker as it would if he was in actual brush.

You do not get to purchase new units like in Command and Conquer series, so you have to make good with what you are given.

As far as I can tell all weapon types from WWII for each given faction are present in... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Not too bad for a S&T game., February 10, 2007
= Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Blitzkrieg Anthology (CD-ROM)
I got in a bit of a mood after watching HBO's Band Of Brothers and wanted to blow up some bad guys so I picked up the original version of Blitzkrieg. After a few weeks and running out of missions I picked up this boxed Anthology...obviously there's some fun and addiction built into the premise and mechanics of the game. Having now played both BK and BK2, I prefer the over-all nature of this, the original. The controls and graphics are more natural and intuitive in this anthology. With Blitzkrieg 2, they've changed some of the controls around, causing a few curses for those familiar with the original, plus BK2's graphics suddenly seem less realistic and more pastel in colour...go figure.

I can only give this game 4 stars, however. After a while you notice repetition in layout and can guesstimate quite accurately the layout of enemy positions (you begin shelling the heck out of that cliff face just down the road from your camp at the beginning of every mission just... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars The Most Realistic WWII Realtime Game Ever Made, November 30, 2005
= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Blitzkrieg Anthology (CD-ROM)
This is by far the best WWII game ever made. It is even better then Blitzkrieg 2. The realism of the units is amazing and the articifical intelligence is pretty good. There are historical scenarios which can be very challenging and then computer generated ones which are easier, but lots of fun. Only one problem with this game is that it will not work on a laptop that uses power saving technology. Basically that's all modern laptops. The game detects the computer's speed incorrectly and as a result the game is not playable. Only buy this game if you play on using a desktop or have an older non-speed step technology laptop.
