Cigol Posted February 17, 2009 Fans of Soldiers: Heroes of World War II rejoice. The sequel to the sequel, Men of War is upon us and it's flipping good stuff. If you've never played Soldiers, it's basically Company of Heroes and Commando's on a much grander, deeper scale combined with the ability to directly control your units/tanks at will. Fun times, especially online in co-op. It still has a somewhat rough around the edges veneer which might put off newcomers unfamiliar with the original, not to mention utterly ridiculous voice acting - but if you look past that then the multi-faceted gameplay more than makes up for it. I don't know about you but I can't wait. I never really got into FoW due to all the bugs but I've been hankering for something to fill the void ever since and it looks like they've finally delivered... There's a demo of it available here, and this is what RPS had to say on it; "This is a game that is more than the sum of its demo. I’m certain we’ll be talking about Men Of War a lot more in the coming months, because it’s one of my favourites of the year so far. You should definitely play this demo."

kuddles Posted February 17, 2009 I'll probably consider picking this game up in the future, I'm a big fan of the "strategy games without dirt farming" genre that seems to be getting a bit of a resurgence, although the extreme difficulty of Faces of War is giving me pause.

Wurtsi Posted February 17, 2009 Hmm... I heard something about this on GameReplays. Looks interesting, I'll report back once I get the demo up and running. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
