OOoh.. I forgot I had that as well... is a brill game but needs a lot of time which I don't have at the moment... might have to put that back on my hard drive.

Oh yeah. That looked to have potential but I never went back to it after the confusing demo. Apparently that demo was blamed for it's flop because it put a lot of people off so they re-released it on Steam. I've not heard a bad word said about the full game from anyone who's played it.

I played the demo, liked it and then bought the game so it couldn't have been that bad a demo. Although I was swayed by the prospect of supporting an independent developer.

Yes, I was addicted to it. Loved the game. Well worth paying for - and not more of the same (as with most games).

I liked it, but it took me so many attempts and so long to complete the demo I didn't think I'd get much from the full release.

I recommend Company of Heroes, simple, fun, addictive & enjoyable and an story line, *SHOCK HORROR! SHOCK HORROR!*

I got hold of Generals in the end but havent played it yet. Sometimes I doubt my commitment to <strike>Sparkle Motion</strike> games.
