There isn’t some clear-cut formula for making a great game, but Epic hasn’t ignored bullet-point features in expanding the Unreal Tournament series, which is now in its third installment. The multiplayer-focused first-person shooter series started off in 1999 with great graphics, crisp control, solid networking (which led to smooth online gameplay), and hectic action.
These basics haven’t been neglected, even as expectations have changed–and have significantly increased–over the last five years. However, UT has never been just about settling for the basics, and to this end, the new Unreal Tournament 2004 has a tremendous variety of maps and modes of play. In the same package, you’ll find cutthroat deathmatching as good as it’s ever been, plus large team-based modes in the style that’s become so popular lately. Simply put, this is the multiplayer action game that offers something for everyone–even those who prefer playing offline, since the UT bots are better than ever and are still the best in the business.

Word War II real-time strategy game exhaustion is so well established in gaming these days that the genre seems incapable of surprising anybody. Even the standouts, such as Company of Heroes, follow a template so well worn that it has grooves; thus, Theatre of War comes as a shock. 1C Company's take on the old Axis-versus-Allies thing replaces RTS conventions with realistic battlefields, line of sight, and weapon range. Its tactical focus and total absence of resource gathering or base building make the learning curve a little twisty for tank-rush types. However, the authenticity and atmosphere bring the Second World War to life in impressive fashion. Scope and scale are the biggest differences between Theatre of War and the usual WWII RTS. Five campaigns, plus a handful of standalone battles, let you guide troops from the US and UK, USSR, France, Poland, and Germany through more than 40 lengthy engagements. Multiplayer support for up to eight players also lets you take your fight to the Net or a LAN. There's a full suite of tutorials and a mission editor if you want to roll your own battles. However, it's the scale of each mission that is most notable. While the standard gaming re-creation of something like the aftermath of D-Day or the siege of Stalingrad shrinks the battlefield and adds artificial elements like fog of war, the average map here is at least a few kilometers across. You can see all the way across this expanse unless you're blocked by trees, hills, or buildings. Such tremendous size gives the game a feel that's considerably grittier than the standard, scrunched-together RTS and an authenticity that makes every engagement seem like a chapter out of a history book. full ISO DVD format
Stormregion's 2001 real-time strategy title S.W.I.N.E. featured pigs and rabbits engaged in a fictional war that drew parallels to World War II events. The company's latest game, Codename: Panzers, visits World War II for real. It features many of the original gameplay elements found in S.W.I.N.E., including graphics that are every bit as state-of-the-art today as S.W.I.N.E.'s were for its time. Furthermore, Codename: Panzers adds numerous other well-thought-out features and enhancements, it provides plenty of interesting units and destructible environments to play around with, and it contains a ton of content, including three big campaigns, all of which result in an excellent, all-around real-time strategy game. There may be plenty of higher profile real-time strategy games available at this time, but Codename: Panzers is good enough to be just as deserving of your attention.
The campaigns focus on a commander who actually has some personality.
The game's three single-player campaigns occur at different times during World War II. The German campaign follows the invasion of Poland, France, and the Soviet Union; the Russian campaign deals with the Soviets pushing back the German invaders; and the Allied campaign takes place during D-Day and beyond. Each side follows the commander of its respective army, which adds a real human touch to the proceedings. Every mission begins with the commander writing in his journal. These journal entries don't really have any impact on or relevance to the upcoming missions or gameplay, but they're a nice addition that gives your commander (and the game) some personality.
