  1. I find myself playing ToW in a somewhat CM-like manner. I'll pause, give out all my orders, zoom in to an area of interest, and watch the action pan out based on my commands for a minute or so and then repeat the process. If only this game had a rewind/record feature so you could check out the details of all the other area of action. Its really a pity, give how cool the details and animations are that you can only keep an eye on one aspect of the battle at a time. I'll be zooming in on the money shot of a bazooka taking out an armored car, but miss my BAR cutting down the enemy infantry coming down the road.
  2. Holy balls. That was really awesome. That was honestly one of the coolest minimovies made up of video game scenes that I've ever viewed. The various segments transitioned into each other real nice. All the shots were so well timed. Some of my favorite parts: Around 4:30 - The crew manning the AT gun, and turning it around. A shell hit the gun and one of the two crew went down, the second guy approaches the gun and then a 2nd shell comes in and takes him out. Such a good shot to capture, seemed choreographed. Around 5:59 when all the French infantry were rushing down the hill together towards the kraut trenches. The camera angle was perfect. The scene gave that feeling of something epic happening. 7:51 - The guy tossing the AT grenade at the tank. The timing of everything was so perfect it was like how you'd expect to see it in a Hollywood film. The end - the scene with the French tank taking out the kraut led up so perfectly to the Stuka bombers. Very well planned. The one criticism I'd have is the black and white scenes. They look very cool, but they just don't flow with the rest of the film. Its a little distracting, and given the quality of the rest of it it's not really needed. I really can't say enough how cool I thought this video was. BFC should hire you on to do the promo vids for their games. This video would have been a PERFECT promo vid for ToW. Tons better than the one they used that didn't really feature in-game footage.
  3. Yes, very cool video. Better than the vids that were released prior to game coming out. I've had the game downloaded since the prerelease was ready but haven't had a chance to play due to my work schedule. This has got me itching to play! Thankfully, this week I'll finally have the time to dig in.
