"Shellshock" is a decent Vietnam game and I would certainly recommend buying it used but if you're only going to play one Vietnam game then "Conflict:Vietnam" is it. It offers a much wider range and variety of missions than Shellshock. For that reason alone it captures the essence of the war's action better. It also requires more strategic thinking. If you just want action for action's sake play Shellshock instead.
Game is okay, nothing too special.

This game is a small step forward from the Baghdad series, the graphics though have been minorly upgraded. The gameplay is a bit frustrating though because enemies seem to shoot through trees and debris to kill you while you have to move closer to shoot them. For pretty much most of the game you have to keep all 4 guys together because enemies constantly come from behind and attack and your buddies just stand there and take the bullets to the back.
The game is somewhat difficult and sometimes they don't offer enough weapons, which forces some of your buddies to walk around with no ammo for some of the missions. They at least got the music and language right though, but that's one of the few positive things about the game.
The game is definately worth renting but with many other war-games out on the market it probably isn't worth buying.
A whole heap of fun!

I eagerly awaited the release of Conflict: Vietnam after spending way too long playing both Desert Storm games and, even better in my opinion, The Great Escape, all made by Gotham Games. C:V did not dissapoint.
Whilst I don't think it's a great deal different from C:DS2, there are still some neat new touches. At last we can pick up other weapons, fight an (semi) intelligent enemy and, best of all, issue commands.
The 14 different levels were a distinct mixed bag; Charlies Point was almost pathetically simple whereas Tunnel Rats took me weeks to get past. My only other slight complaints would be the odd glitch, such as when one of your guys gets stuck somewhere for no reason and the unecessary swearing that is cliched and gets old after a while. Otherwise, well done Gotham Games!!
Is it just me?

I don't know if anyone else experiences this but I get really dizzy playing this game. There's something about the visual effects/ coloring/ textures/ rendering/ etc. that makes me feel dizzy. Don't know what's wrong as I still have 20/20 vision. This game is not playable for me eventhough it may be promising. Shellshock is simpler and more playable (no squad commands though).

Conflict has the best war game/fighter games on the market to me. And I'm not really a big fan of games outside of sports. But this 3rd installment of the series is gold. It takes you back to the time of Vietnam as you should know by the title. Its the best Vietnam themed game on the market. I hear some people complain over the controls and such.....but like any game it takes time to learn the them and once you do that switching guns and getting health packs become second nature. I do it without even thinking about it because I'm so used to the series.It has a turtorial,use it! Go thru it twice if you have to. What makes this one different from the other 2 before it is its set in mostly jungle backgrounds which require a different stratagy then being in a desert. You never know whats coming at you from where and your always on the edge. You have to lookout for traps and such because you just can't run out guns a blazing or your dead. This series hasn't been known much for its graphics, but come on, when your dodging bullets in a game do you really think to yourself "Wow, he's kinda choppy and the sky isn't really sky blue."? Give me a break. The graphics are good enough for you to know whats what. The soundtrack is kick-ass and I even listen to those songs now and people think I lost my mind. I just tell them I've been thru the "dogs of war"! LOL! If you take your time and and don't let the controls fustrate you then you will truely enjoy this game for the experiance and when you talk to a "Nam" vet tell him you know what he's been thru.Well maybe not,but the game has that surreal feeling. Vietnam was no joke.

Great for single player. Didn't like so much for multiplayer

I loved the single player mode of this game and suggest to anyone that likes single player games to buy it. The controls are a little weird but are easy to catch onto. The multiplayer I was expecting to be just as good. It was a co-op mission in mutiplayer which isn't very good in my opion. Over all I suggest this game.
Conflict: Vietnam -- An action-packed game!

This game is bound to keep whoever plays it occupied for countless hours.
When it originally hit shelves in late 2004, I immediately bought it (Being a big fan of the Conflict Desert Storm games). Taking you from the base... to the jungle...to a POW camp...to hovering around in a chopper. This game does indeed place you in Vietnam!
Great Game!!!!

this game is fantastic!!!!! if youve played conflict desert storm 1&2 youd know the graphics would be a little shaky and they are. the waepons fit the time period they also look very realistic the m-60 machine gun,m-16, ak-47 and car-15 assult rifles look acceptional!!!!! the sound alright. the comments of your teammates is very repeatitive.if your someone who likes non-stop action i would get this game.the game is alsoauthentic.

This game does absolutely rock!Alot like Desert Storm 2
but better and definitely harder.You never know what`s around
the next corner.Just a tip, you don`t have to make all silent
kills to get out of the P.O.W. camp on the level "Russian Roulette". I grabbed the A.K. then went to the back room, got some medkits and the knife then snuck out and silently killed the guard snoozin.Then picked up his A.K. That gave me enough ammo to start mowin down everybody and grabbin their ammo as I went.The silent kill plan is fun too though.The mission scenerios seem pretty authentic from what I know about Vietnam.
Great graphics too. A must buy
