This is the most frustrating game I have ever played. I hated it. I started the game on easy and it was still ridiculously hard. This is a poor game made by poor, no-name companies. The graphics are terrible for an x-box game. There's no story line. You can be either Delta Force or SAS special forces, but's there's no difference except the SAS have a british accent, the characters are all the same (even the same weapons, stupid). The enemy AI is awful. Instead of shooting their guns, they just throw grenades which instantly kills you. That's all they ever do. Then there's the whole tank subject. There's millions of them and you only get about three anti-tank missiles. Even with multiple direct hits at a tank, it still won't blow. Also, enemy tanks have perfect accuracy and never fail to hit and kill you the first time. The tanks take out all your men in no time and you're forced to start the mission over again. Shooting your gun involves precise movements and rarely will you hit your target even when the bad guy is right in front of you. Never have I been so frustrated playing a video game. There are many better games than this that have the same gameplay. If you don't believe me, rent it and you'll see how bad this poor excuse for an x-box game really is.

socom is way, way better

This game really is bad after you've played one of the socom games. If only you are playing this game, it is really hard because your teamates always do the dumbest things. All you can tell them to do is follow you. Bad graphics and it feels unsmooth. With 2 people this game is very fun because you can split up and do separate objectives or distract a tank while your friend places a C4 next to it. Aiming is not set up good because it is auto aim and is too hard to hit the guy that you want to. ememy AI is still pretty dumb and will aimlessy run at you. You can stand right in frount of a tank, up next to it and it can't touch you. More challanging than the first and better missions. Very bad level design. Not a very big improvement over the first. You could possibly beat it in a rental. Smart that you can give and trade things with your partners.

BORING..

Conflict:Desert Storm II Is boring,theres only two good thing and that is 1)Squad Based Action and 2)Alot Of Missions.But that all there is to it.The music is annoying,The enemy soldiers are quite laem.
I even preferred ShellShock:`Nam `67 over this.
The Conflict series are good,but i HATE The Desert Storm games,Conflict:VietNam is good and Conflict:Global Storm is okay.
If you looking for a good Tactical squad based action go for a SOCOM game,A Ghost Recon game or a Rainbow 6 game.
seeyaa

I like the latest two Conflict games,C:Vietnam and C:Global Storm
(i live in UK-so i am talking about Global Terror) they are fun.
The Conflict series are not the best Tactical Shooter series even if they are fun,i still prefer SOCOM,Ghost Recon and Rainbow SiX any day.So here are all the tactical shooters/WAR games that i recommned:(some are FPS,some are 3PS)

SOCOM:U.S. Navy SEALs
SOCOM II
SOCOM 3
Ghost Recon
Ghost Recon:Jungle Storm
Ghost Recon 2
Rainbow Six 3
Rainbow Six:LOCKDOWN(I like it-alot of ppl don`t)
Medal Of Honor:Frontline
Medal Of Honor:European Assault(NOT Rising Sun)
Call Of Duty:Finest Hour
Call Of Duty 2:Big Red One
Brothers In Arms:Road to Hill 30
Brothers In Arms:Earned In Blood
ShellShock:Nam 67
Conflict:VietNam
Conflict:Global Storm(in USA Global Terror)
Thse are all Military/paramillitary Tactical Shooters/War games
I ain`t got them all but i HAVE played them all and like them,The reason i have played them all is because i have got three friends that love Tacti shooters and war games(two boys and one girl-love these games).
I ain`t got an XBox-But i have heard that XBox has WAY better Military/Paramilitary games than both PS2 and GameCube XBox have got things like CounterStrike,GR2:Summit Strike,GR:Island Thunder,Operation:FLASHPOINT etc.-i wish PS2 nad GCN had all thiose-But still i like my PS2 ones!

So DSII is krap it boring-i borrowed it from one of my friends who didn`t like it as i was trading it in for Metal Gear Solid 3:Snake Eater,speaking of MGS3 i am also a fan of stealth games:
here are the BEST stealth games out now:

Metal Gear Solid 1/The Twin Snakes
Metal Gear Solid 2(SOL and S)
Metal Gear Solid 3:Snake Eater
Hitman 2:Silent Assasin
Hitman:Contracts
Splinter Cell 3:Chaos Theory

though i like SC3:CT i hate its predessors they are So BORING like DSII and DSI.
So stay away from the Desert Storm games-Ther are MUCH better war and tacti shooter games out!-the latest two Conflict games are good though!
BYE

When I first played this game, I immediately noticed the graphical enhancements over the first game. The roll was also a nice touch. However, after only playing for a couple of hours, I noticed I was getting bored of it. At first I was having trouble figuring out why I got bored of this game, yet can still pick up the first game and have a blast. And then it hit me. This game is far more linear than the first. The first game had separate paths that players could take, especially usefull with multiple players, that allowed for more variety in game play. This game, however, had pretty much a set path for players to run through during the missions, making it kind of boring. Also, the ending was quite dissapointing. Where the first game had General Aziz (We all know it was Saddam), this game lacked a main villain that could be killed at the end. To me it was worth it to play the first game through just for the satisfaction of knifing Saddam in the back. No satisfaction found in this game. It's a shame, I was really looking forward to this game.

My favorite co-op game

We have fun teaming together to survive the missions... but this one seemed m much shorter than the first Conflict game. We put those claymores and landmines to good use. When playing single player, stealth mode works best. I wish they would keep statistics on all those stealth kills though; no fun bragging about it if you can't show your friends.

Minor irritations include unnecessary screens during loading: (Are you SURE you want to save? Are you SURE you want to restart?) Well... duh... yeah already... start the game! And what's with the useless "profile" junk? Get to the game already!

If you have friends who come over and play then I recommend this game. If you are one of those shut-ins who plays over the internet in a dark room by yourself, well... get SOCOM.

We can't wait until the next one comes out... I read it's probably gonna be Vietnam.

A big improvement, but SOCOM 2 is better.

Conflict: Desert Storm 2 takes place in the early 90s, following the events of the first game.

Graphically, the game is much more detailed. Explosions look better, and the enviroments are not near as bland. The choppy, unrealistic animation from the first game is gone as well. The sound is what you would expect, with cheesy voices and good background music.

The computer AI is probably the biggest improvement. Troops no longer make stupid decisions, and the act more life-like. The enemies are also more realsitic. The collision detection is much improved. Bullets will no longer just pass through people. The levels are better, but could still use a little work. While SOCOM's levels are varied and take place all over the world; Conflict 2's levels are all set in the desert, and begin to look quite simialr.

There is also 4 player split screen, but sadly, no online play. The multiplayer levels are bland, so multiplayer won't keep you entertained for very long.

In the end, Conflict Desert Storm 2 is a much improved sequel, but you should buy SOCOM 2 first, even if you don't have a network adaptor.

THE BEST MULTI-PLAYER GAME EVER!!!!!

This is awesome. The graphics are way better than the first and so are the cinematics. There are some newer weapons such as the flare gun( Shoot it downward and cause the person to go on fire!!), phorause grenade, and claymore mine!! The training mode really help and of course new ten totally-packed cutting edge missions. You can record your stats such as stealth kills and level up your four squad soldiers to at least Elite and there is also medals!!

But that was just single player, try muli- player with a friend or a family member. its really fun and both players can control an extra soldier(Just like the first one). This game is the best co-op game and will definitely become one of "The Greatest Hits". Now that you know, Get ready to GO LOUD!!!

3.5 stars SHORT GAME

This is a VERY SHORT GAME and it is not worth 50 bucks. It is great while it lasts and it is kinda fun to replay, but it is not worth 50 bucks or waste your christmas petition on this. I got it for 7 DOLLARS. ONLY 7 DOLLARS last month. Where I live, I can get fully functional copies of newly released games!:). This is even better than renting it, since its yours forever for only 7 DOLLARS, while the original version is 7 times more expensive. I also get newly released computer games for 8 dollars, one sixth the price!That is how I got Generals and Zero Hour, amazing games. So, just buy this game when it is cheaper, wait for it, you will finish the game in about 5 hours.

What a great game!

If the Glorification of War is what you're after, then get this game. Throw out your books and marginalize your ability to think for yourself. Killing is fun. Killing is American. Who cares about the lesser humans. (Bring the boys, and girls, back home!)
