I really enjoy war games, in particular WW2 games. I made lots of WW2 models when I was a kid and played many miniature games with tanks, infantry and a detailed battle map with trees, grass, rocks and hills. With that said ever since PC war games showed up I have always been on the lookout for a great playing and great looking WW2 game. Started with the Close Combat series, Commando's, Blitzkrieg, Soldiers, Company of Hero's but I always felt that realism was lacking in these games. I really hated when my soldiers would move out right in the middle of enemy fire and do nothing to avoid being shot. I was irritating beyond belief. I guess I found Battlefront from reading many many reviews/forum discussions of PC war games online (armchair general). I do remember trying the CM:BN 1.0 demo but couldn't get into it due to the really slow poorly optimized game engine. I like a fairly fast moving camera and the 1.0 version just didn't work for me. It wasn't my system because I always upgraded the CPU/graphics card due to my interest in 3D animation. So I just took a pass. I guess with the recent 70 year anniversary of the Normandy Invasion I just happen to go back to Battlefront to see if they were having a sale. I saw that not only have they come out with a new game CM:RT but also 2.0 versions of their previous games. Well I did some looking on you tube to see what the 2.0 game looked like since they didn't have a demo and it looked really nice, very good camera response and nice looking textures so I bought the big bundle.
