If you're a fan of 4x strategy games, I highly recommend Making History. This deep and immersing game offers a little something for everyone. It can be taken as a geopolitical sim, nation builder and war game all at once. There are a wide variety of units and tactics to use, as well as nations to play. Making History includes a campaign editor which is one of the easiest I've ever used.
Anyone whose ever played games such as Hearts of Iron, Supreme Ruler 2010 or Risk, should definitely include this game in their collection. The game is exciting and unpredictable. In one of my games, Russia joined the Axis powers! O_o
The replayability, customization, playing options and varied game play make this title well worth the cost. What're you waiting for, make history today!
Pros: turn based, good graphics (for a 4x game), simple to learn, flexible, fun.
Cons: The battle system could have been a little more detailed, but it works well. Historical personalities to use in the game would have also been a nice touch, like in Hearts of Iron.
Summary: If you like turn based strategy, this game is a worthy purchase. Watching all of the many ways the 2nd WW could have played out is entertaining, and being a part of it is exciting.
Top game moments (so far): Taking over S. America as the United States. >:-D
Fantastic strategy game

I am extremely impressed with this game. It's an elegant reinterpretation of the classic board war games, with the sophistication made possible by the computer. A lot of fun to use and extremely well thought out. Kudos to the developers.
