Summary: Half an expansion
Review: This expansion adds a few new vehicles (which play like the old ones) and French/Italian troops (which play like the old ones). I've played through the new maps and they look and play a lot like the original ones. In my opinion a good expansion is one that I can't stand to play the game without. With Road to Rome, I really couldn't care less. I enjoy many of the original maps better.

Summary: Mixed Feelings...
Review: Ok, don't get me wrong, I played this game at a friend's house and it is the single best army game now, and probably ever will be. However, the requirements are bigger than the Earth itself. My computer meets all the requirements except one... It requires a GeForce Video Card to play! So basically, I spent $ to get a horribly glitchy screen. My computer runs perfectly on high video settings for Star Wars: Jedi Outcast, but doesn't stand a chance even on low in Battlefield 1942. Before buying this game, make sure you have a GeForce Video Card, if not, get one, because this is a game you do not want to miss out on. I know I need to get myself one soon.

Summary: The best of the best
Review: It simply doesn't get any better than this. Graphics are superb, sound is superb, and the content variety alone is enough to make you drool. Pilot a WW2 bomber, blast away with machine turrets, crush your opponents with a tank, launch an assault on a battleship, get somewhere quickly and easily with a jeep, and take any of the classic FPS roles. Well worth the money. And don't forget the expansion!

Summary: Best Multiplayer experience ever
Review: I got this game for my birthday, and I have played it online literally EVERY SINGLE DAY since then. The weapons system is great, the vehicle operations are seamless, and the general feel of the game is amazing. I love talking on the phone with my friend while shooting him in the back point black with an anti-tank rocket. If you like online gaming, first person shooters, or World War II, you NEED THIS GAME!

Summary: Fantastic Game, Crazy requirements
Review: This game is such a rush, I can't believe there are other things in my life that I have to do other than play this game. Gameplay reminds me a lot of Return to Castle Wolfenstien, the online version. Add various weapons at your command, including vehicles, aircraft, troops at your command that can actually fight, and an assortment of small arms and you have got the years best gaming experience.
However, Electronic Arts really did a horrible job at making this a great game for many of the systems out there. How could they be so far off on the requirements for this game. I was running a 1.5 Ghz P4, 512 RRDAM, 64mb Nivida graphics accelerator card, which provided me with one of the worse performing games that I have every purchased. I upgraded the video card to an 128mb ATI Radeon 9500 Pro, and I can still not play the game at its highest settings. The system seems to keep up fine at the medium setting, but I don't see how a game with a minimum requirement of 500 Mhz, recommended requirement of 800 Mhz, can run so [badly] on my 1.5 Ghz. Have tried all the patches and updates, still doesn't seem to solve anything. Makes you wonder how they will make the game for the XBox that barely has the recommended requirements.
Although, I was torqued about this I still love the game, just make sure that you have a fantastic system.

Summary: great game but make sure your SOUND drivers are uptodate
Review: This is the best shooter around but if you don't update your sound card drivers the game can be very slow.

Summary: Slowest mouse response ever
Review: While I've played a lot of shooters, this one, even with the fastest adjustments, has the slowest mouse response of any game I've ever tried, and it's infuriating. Spoils the game completely--molasses meets the shooter. The vehicle controls are also remarkably primitive. Save your money for a future more refined version, and buy Return to Castle Wolfenstein in the meantime.

Summary: Awesome and Addictive
Review: Im really 16 years old but i didnt feel like registering to write a review. Anyway this game is the best multiplayer game i have ever played. If you like war games this will blow you away. You can get into tanks, planes, naval ships, machine guns, aa guns, and huge artillery guns. The graphics are great and so is the sound. The weapons are realistic to each side either axis or allied. Allieds have the BAR and the thompson while the axis have the mp40 and the stg44. There are five soldier classes you can be in. They are scout,medic,assault,engineer, and anti-tank.
Multiplayer is the main focus of this game. Single player is OK to practice on but the AI is just stupid. But once you play over the internet with 32-64 people you will never play single player again.
The one bad thing is the system reqs. I am in a good position to review this game because it runs flawlessly on my computer. For others it might not run as good if you dont have a high end machine.
My system is a :
Pentium 4 2.4 ghz
512 mb rdram
128 mb ati radeon graphics card
soundblaster sound card with surround sound 5.1 speakers
Cable Modem (dont buy the game unless you have high speed internet access![.])
The game runs perfect on my computer with every detail maxed out at 1024x768.
Also another bad thing about the game can be the lag. Even on a good system you need to find a game with a ping in the 70s or lower for a perfect game. Usually it isnt hard to find one with a ping like this because of the ten thousand people that are on on any given night.
Overall if you have the system to run the game on this will be the funnest experience you will ever have. and ADDICTIVE
