military and espionage

We just bought this game and we love it. This game is more realistic and easier to play and control than Ghost Recon. If you want stealth missions go for Splinter Cell, but if you want a good combination of stealth, gun fire, and strategy - this game has it. The fact that it sells for $..is also a plus. You can play solo and be in charge of up to 4 men in your squad (depending on the mission) or you can play together with friends and have them control the members of your squad. Add to all these great things that this game is full of history. It recounts many of the details of Desert Storm - and this time you get to take out Saddam yourself!

Conflict: Desert Storm did not do well at all on the PS2 and XBOX. However, it tends to stand out a little better on Gamecube. Since there are no online squad-based game sfor Gamecube, the focus is on the single player mode, which is actually good. The levels are varied, but are fun to play through. You can get assault rifles and rocket launchers, as well as handguns. Split-screen play supports 4 players, but isn't all that exciting. If you want a multiplayer game, try TIMESPLITTERS 2.

As for problems, there are a couple. First, there is no online play. Sega did it with PHANTASY STAR ONLINE, so why can't anybody else? Second, the camera sometimes moves awkwardly, which makes aiming harder. Also, the camera gets worse in split-screen. If you are not willing to learn the levels, CONFLICT can be very difficult at times.

There is only one other squad-based battlefield game on GAMECUBE, GHOST RECON. It focuses more on taking cover in the bushes, and giving your team directions. It is also a first-person game, while CONFLICT is a third person game. CONFLICT focuses more on action. THE SUM OF ALL FEARS is a primarily indoor game, so it is not really in the same genre.

So which game should you buy? CONFLICT: DESERT STORM is really your best option, with GHOST RECON a close second. However, if you have a PS2, buy SOCOM first, even if you can't play online. If all you want is a GAMECUBE shooter, you should buy MEDAL OF HONOR first.

This game is the best war game i have ever played. Me and my brother play it a lot and we have beaten it 2 or 3 times. Every time we go through a level it is never the same. The game is basd on strategy which is what I like. You have to plan your attack on a tank or on a building very carefully which is half the fun. I think it is better then Ghost Recon because the controls are more easy and you can pick up weapons that you find in buildings!
