I have no problem with game play. For the most part interface is pretty easy to figure out. Instruction book covers most with several web sites available for support. Graphics are incredible. Very realistic , the explosions, real damage to buildings, every thing can be destroyed.
Sound is good.
I was not personally present at any battles during WWII but have imagined this is exactly what they sound like. I first discovered the game at a friends house, who happened to have 2 pentium 3's 650's networked. We played from 8 pm til 3 in the morning. Sudden Strike is very adictive and its graphics and sound is jaw droping. That next day I went to Wal-mart and purchased a copy myself.
