I was intrigued by Talonsoft knowing the great games like 'Hidden and Dangerous' series. I didnt know what da Myth II is all about (its powered by its engine).

The game has good ideas, however it is hard to play and control this 3rd player game. VC soldiers coming to you from all possible directions, like the very first level I couldnt figure where to go. I dont know, I just dont like it.

The British love it!

I must admit that I simply love war games. From playing a lone soldier to commanding entire armies, I just love to play war games. I was personally a bit disappointed with Hidden & Dangerous, one of Talonsoft's previous titles as I found the controls and movement to be a bit dodgy.

However, this game really is great. It has been written with the help of experts from the online Myth community to really make the game look and feel brilliant. If you loved Myth you will love this just as much. You can tell that the game uses the Myth II engine as it looks and feels very similar.

The only difficulty I can see is that it would take a lot of practice for new players to get used to the camera system but veterans of the Myth games should be able to jump write in.

In my opinion it is a great laugh, especially at this price.

I wanted a mission, and for my sins they gave me one...

This game is great! Graphics are wonderful and set the mood perfectly. I've renamed my squad members as myself and my buddies and for the past week I've been transported to 1960's Viet-Nam nightly. I find Green Berets much more interesting than the somewhat stale dwarves and wizards world of Myth II. Graphics are better as well. The scenarios are tough even set on Timid and I'd hate to see what they'd be like on the Legendary level! This game really gives you the feel of small unit jungle combat! You'll have the time of your life sneaking your men from tree to tree trying to get close enough to plant the charges or zigzagging to avoid incoming mortar rounds. You can even save films of your missions and replay them. You can speed these up or slow them down for Peckinpah-style action. If you're tired of fantasy battles, go for this one!

More fun then the real thing

Very few games use a Viet Nam war theme. As a Viet Nam infantry vet I look hard for games from my war experience. I am a fan of Myth so the engine and game play were familure to me. Although this is not an outstanding game it was very playable and just plain fun. On the normal level it was somewhat challenging and with saves beatable. Some of the weapons were enjoyable and took some skill to master. The M79 granade launcher (Blooper)was one. The hand grandes were fun as well. The enemy morters were deadly. I would reccommend it to those who enjoyed the Myth experience but want to play a Viet Nam War adventure. The major game magizines rated it lower then this. I truly think that the reviewers had no Viet Nam War refrence to get that extra emotional kick a vet would have when playing it. This may be a good gift for a vet who is also a gamer.

This game is a mix of stradegy and pumping, gory action. First of all all of your troops have different attributes makin it pretty diverse, and also anyway u kill a Viet Cong, the blood goes everywhere, another cool thing is that if u want to play it so bad but there are little kids around, u can easily make a simple password to make all the blood go away and turn into stars, makin it like a teen rated game. If u like blood this is a game for u!!!!

Excellent!

What can I say that hasn't already been said by the previous reviews? They are right on in their assessment. The game is awesome, especially for the price. Not many have played it, but it is high quality all the way. Enjoy!
