The subject of World War II can still be something of an uncomfortable point of discussion, and even to this day, still has its sensitive points. Generations later, for us younger types, approaching the subject is somewhat easier. Only recently have developers within the video games industry dared to dip their collective toe into games that evoke the war against the Nazis. The likes of Medal Of Honour proved to be massively popular, and now here's Sudden Strike, the latest in the genre.
Technically, Sudden Strike is an assuredly deft experience. The games environments are fully interactive, and allow the animated destruction of any on screen object. Also, the number of on-screen units is immense. Its possible to see as many as 1,000 of your troops battling against their enemies simultaneously. Using these environments, you are able to tackle a large number of single player missions and intensive campaign missions.
Multi-player over the Internet allows up to twelve players to participate in what is a highly strategic, informative and educational playing experience.
