Video Game Reviews of History Channel Civil War: The Battle of Bull Run
Customer Review: couldn't prove it by me!
Summary: 1 Stars
I see this rated as 5-stars and sure don't know how.
Only once, in many attempts, I have even managed to get this game to start. I still don't know how it started that one time.
Even with the patch installed, I keep locking up when the screen says "initializing...".
I think there's some visual c+ error but I can't even see the pop up. I can't use ctrl-alt-del even to get out of the software. The only thing I can do is turn my whole pc off.
How I got past the c+ error one time is still a mystery and when I did, you can believe I wasn't over impressed with what little I saw.
