Summary: The Game Is Cool, The Players Who Are Playing Isn't...
Review: I Played Battlefield 1942 At My Friends, And it Was Fantastic! The Graphics Are Great, And THe Gameplay Was Awesome! But Enough With The Praising, And Get On Wit The Bad Part: "The Players". Even though Battlefield 1942 is a sweet game, some of the players will get a little "too" eccentric in the game. My Point Is This: Some People will TK you for no reason, some will plant mines in front of airfields so no one will get a plane, some will even "blow" up the plane bec. they couldn't get it, and some will be rediculously idiotic and "ditch the plane" after they take off, and that's for the planes that have 2 ppl in them! Even though this game is cool, it needs some tweaking to do like the mines won't affecting the planes that are for a allie but affecting an enemy, but it is based on "realism" so.... this is a perfect game to play!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Good Game
Review: This game is a very fun game. It combines strategy and fps to some extent. You replay many of the great battles from world war 2 such as battle of the bulge and midway.

The only reason that this game does not get 5 stars is because of the incredible bulk of the game. I'm running a 2.26 p4 with 512 ram and 128 radeon and the game takes a good 2-3 minutes to load on my system. It is the biggest pig of a game that I have ever played, and consequently because of this fact, I am playing it less.

But once you do get it up and running, its a blast.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: An Average Game
Review: Okay, let me first start by saying that I have not played the multi-player portion so this review is on only the single player game. The game is marginal. I finished the campaign in four hours on the normal setting. The load times for the missions are long (about 1 min for each). So, if you wish to stop the mission and restart, it takes a long time. Your computer-controlled buddies on your side are useless as sometimes they run right past enemy players without engaging them. They will stand right next to an enemy base with no enemy nearby and fail to capture it for your side, even when you command them to do so. I found the aircraft almost impossible to control and use effectively. I never even saw a submarine.
The game does have some fun points. I did enjoy the music and the graphics. When you turn up the game to the hard or impossible settings, it is truly challenging. I think that this game could have been much more intriguing with a few small changes in game play. After a week of play, this game is ready to join the stack of old games that are awaiting their fate beside my desk.

Summary: In response to Clint Mosso
Review: I dont see why you are having problems with your settings. I maxed out all my settings and i only have 450mHz,320MBram,GeForce4 MX420 64MB, and DSL (although im just about 10 blocks from the phone company and get a 1.2MB connection). It runs fine for me. For the review: There are many detailed reviews already here so im not going to bother. The fact is, this is a great multiplayer online game. I highly recommend it to any fans of RTCW, MoH, or any other FPS for that matter.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A few quick comments
Review: I've never played a multi-player FPS before (though have played through Half-Life and others in single-player mode), and I'm thrilled to have found this one. I've tried a few other multiplayer FPS games since playing BF 1942, but found they're mostly run-and-gun endeavors - lots of sound and fury, signifying nothing. In BF 1942 it pays to think tactically: do I really want to rush in with my tank alone, letting the enemy pepper me with grenades and whatnot? It's often better to wait for a few friendly infantry to come up and help you. Should I rush up the middle and die, or would it be wiser to sneak around the fringe and surprise them from the rear? You're on a team, you're trying to capture terrain, so the choices are more interesting than "how can I best kill things?" that typify many FPS games.

As far as machine requirements go, my one comment is that a good graphics card makes all the difference. I usually get 60 FPS with my machine, which is a relatively wimpy 1 GHz Pentium III. The secret is that I have an NVIDIA GeForce4 ti 4400.

This game's all about fun - it's pretty easy to get in the action from the first day, without months of practice. You'll die a fair bit, but everyone does. Most games are decided by whether you captured and held terrain, not by total deaths (and deaths don't count against your individual rating). It's also possible to be extremely useful to your team while mellowing out: protect a base, man a flak battery, keep repairing your ship as an engineer. There are lots of useful support roles, if you feel like playing them.

This game inspired me to write a FAQ for it and to annotate all of its 16 maps (so I could know where medical and ammo supply points are - no "powerups sitting in the middle of a field", you need to go to specific places for aid). No game have ever inspired me to do this before. So, yeah, you could say I like it.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Don't waste your money!
Review: This game fell far short of it's potential. The designers should look at Return to Castle Wolfenstein for an example of great game play.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Battlefield 1942
Review: The game lacks that punce you get when I have played other games.Two games that I have enjoyed more than any other games are.Medal of Honor Allied Assault,and my all time favorite is DEUS EX. This game doesn't have what I say is a thinking part to it.What I mean is like DEUS you had to find clues and what your next move would be.I'm a WWII history buff and this game just is not what I thought it would be.One more thing ,if your going to fly a plane let me use my joystick.
