Video Game Reviews of D-Day
Customer Review: Good Real Time Strategy Game
Summary: 5 Stars
This game is anything but junk! Is it perfect? No, of course not, I have yet to play a video game that is. However, IMHO this is a good game that has provided me with hours of quality entertainment. Now for the review: Basically, this is a real time strategy game (so if your looking for a Medal of Honor type game this isn't it) that covers 12 battles that were fought in Normandy, starting with the British Paratroop landings and the subsequent battle for Pegasus Bridge. Made with the help of Normandie Memoire (a Normandy historical association), The game is taken strickly from the allied point of view and all of the battles are the ones that the Allies won. The 12 battles are: Pegasus Bridge, The Merville battery, Ste Mere Eglise, The Longest Day (Omaha Beach), Carentan, Cherbourg, Caen - Operation Goodwood, Saint-Lo, Operation cobra, Operation Bluecoat, The Mortain Counter Attack and finally the Falaise Pocket. The graphics are awesome, the battles are historically acurate, There's lots of extras including great archive footage and veteran testimonies and there are four difficulty settings (easy, normal, hard & extreme)to accommodate all skill levels. If nothing else get this for Ste Mere Eglise, Omaha Beach and Carentan, you won't be sorry!
Description of D-Day
D-Day is a tactical strategy game that drops you into the role of the World War II Allied forces, during the final drive to liberate Europe. You must successfully plan and execute the turning points of the liberation of Europe, throughout 3 campaigns & 12 missions. The Normandie Memoire committee has given D-Day the distinction of being the official game for the 60th anniversary commemoration of the Normandy landings. Because of this, you'll find strategic charts from the real battles, films from historical archives, as well as veterans' and local inhabitants' testimonies - some of which have never been available before!Simulation Games
