Summary: Tired of 1st person shoot ups and drawn out strategy games?
Review: I am not a big fan of stragety games (command & conq., Starcraft) because I cannot seem to get the hang of it, and cannot micromanage fast enough to keep up. Also get bored after 15 levels of 1st person "killing sprees" and "jumping" puzzles. This game breaks that mode and offers alot of enjoyment and playability/"legs". Believe me, you will enjoy it! It run great on a 233Mhz with Voodoo2 card, and the vehicle "physics" will blow you away. Ever wondered what it would be like to drive on the moon? Missions are just the right length and offers a good story line. Don't believe me, just go to any gamer site and read the reviews.

Summary: This is THE Game!
Review: Of all of the strategy, tactics or first person games I own, this is the best and most often played. I have even tried BZ II and found it to come short of the original. There is not much I can add to the publisher's description above, however, I will say this: once you play you will be addicted. The challenge, no matter how many times I have won, is still there. This is the best entertainment investment I have ever made. I especially like two facets of the game. First, you have the option to play either the Americans or the Russians, you are not limited to one or the other. Second, there are support groups on the web that allow you to download new maps, map generators, etc. for endless hours of additional fun. Well worth the purchase price!

Summary: I always hope newer games will come out like this series.
Review: The Battlezone Gold series is easily among my top 5 of all time. It's really best to get this Gold series because if you like Battlezone, which is an incredible mix of first-person drive/shoot and resource strategy, well, you'll want the expansion packs too. The single-player of BZ and its expansions is great! There's a great story to it with humor and real challenge. The interface becomes second-nature fairly rapidly. Once you've got that down, then you can challenge others in multiplayer. It is an absolute blast to play networked with friends. My friends and I have spent more than 2 years going at it with each other in this game, and it was greatly enhanced by the expansions, offering loads of great new single & multi-player maps plus new vehicles & buildings. It's an older game, but it won't feel like one. Just think of it as a great new gametype for some ridiculously low price. Be sure to look up the fan sites for tweaking support and even more content.

Summary: Tired of 1st person shoot ups and drawn out strategy games?
Review: This is a good game if you like the Command and Conquer type of game. The only difference is you are one of the units in the game. You can tell your men to attack enemies from afar being the general that stands on the nearby hillside or you can have them accompany you in battle.

The story line is very interesting and fun to read about. The strategy guide that comes with the Gold edition is somewhat helpful because it explains the tanks available weapons that aren't explained very well in the Activision manual.

Lastly, I have an older computer with a 150MHz chip and a 4Mb 3D Monster card and it looks the same as my friends 500MHz PIII without a 3D card. So if you have an older computer like mine and enjoy strategy/action games, this will be a good choice.
