Well-Rounded Game

The game conflict Desert Storm is a very well-rounded game which gives you everything you could look for in a shooter. A few good features are; you can play in either 1st or 3rd person, can play and command each soldier in your four man team, a wonderful array of real life weapons (AK-47's, M-16, M-60's, sniper, Anti-Tank launchers, grenades, C4 charges, many handguns as well as many more automatic weapons), and the multi player mode. In the multi player mode up to 4 human players can command the 4 team members. On the scale of 1-10 I give the following:

Graphics- (7) This is probably the only downside of the game. Some of the buildings and scenery are "box-like". These feaures aren't 3D and look like something from Nintendo 64. Most of the scenery also is not interactive. Such as you shoot a window but none of the glass breaks. But, the soldiers and their weapons are in very good detail. The only downside about the soldiers is when they talk, if you zoom in on their face, their mouth is not moving.

Game Play- (9.5) The missions are really hard (depending on the difficulty level) and can take an hour or so to complete. They range from taking down Iraqi Outposts to blowing up Scuds to driving tanks and other vehicles. The controls are a little complicated but are easy to learn after the introduction missions. The training missions will teach you everything from how to move (pretty obvious) to shooting to calling in air strikes and commanding your team.

Sound- (8.5) The sounds coming from the guns are unbelievable. You can hear the click from the chamber, then explosion when the bullet is released and the thud when it hits a body (hopefully an Iragi soldier). The Browning 50 caliber gun has the best sound in the game. Turn up your TV and it sounds like the fight is right outside. A couple downsides are; the voices are often muffed by background sounds, and the planes sound exactly like that humming light bulb in your house.

Overall- (9) For everything this game offers it's hard to believe you can get it for 20 bucks. The multi player mode will be great entertainment and the solo missions are just as good. As long as you can get the controls and ignore the sometimes blotchy scenery, you'll be sure to love this game. I would recommend this game to anyone who likes war games as well as shooters. The game also keeps various stats such as kills and accuracy, then hands out medals for achievements in those catagories. The entire experience is well worth the 20 bucks and would also make a great stocking-stuffer.

Thanks for reading my review and I hope it helped.

I bought this game on 5/25/03 and I've been delighted with the game ever since. Let me tell you, if your looking for acion, aventure, good graphics, this game has it all. What I like about this game a lot is that you can obtain and use estrodenary weapons and vehicles that are out off this world. Here is a little hint that I'll give you, never jump out of a mountain or something high you might kill the soldier by doing that, you can always heal him but you might not get to your inyured player in time and he might die and once he dies, he will be replaced by another soldier(ussualy a rokie). That happened to Bradley, one of the best soldiers in the game, I was blowing the briedge in the first level and I was so in a hurry that I managed to jump of the blowed bride instead of goin around the mountain. When he got inyured I had to use folley and go around the mountain to heal him but it was too late, he had died. Oh well, GOOD LUCK SOLDIER.

This game impressed me!

Over view:

Graphics 6.5/10 :
Although the models are very nicely done and detailed, everything else is average... Some of the landscape and objects are rough and not very impressive but get the job done. And the cinematics aren't anything special but in this game graphics aren't the important thing.

Controls 9/10 :
The controls are at first akward and confusing, and might overwhelm some people. After some practice you get used to them. The control scheme allows (once you've practiced them) more possible ways to fight then most other FPS.

GamePlay 9/10 :
This game's 15 missions are long and fun fun fun. Co-op mode rules! Fighting along side your friends is neat. But if your friends are elsewhere you'll have to learn to control a squad of four by your self, which may overwhelm some people. So invite your friends over for a great time!

Sound 7/10 :
Well there's voices, gun shots and music but I'm too busy playing to pay much attention.

Overall 9.5/10 : This would be a great game to buy for the summer! So just sit back, relax, invite over some friends and get ready for FPS heaven!

CONFLICT DESERT STORM REVIEW

Wow, what a awesome game! Bradle the rifle man, Foley the sniper, Conners the heavey weapons specielist and Jones the demoltion expert in 15 levels of hard desert storm fury. This game is alot easyer to control than Ghost Reacon, but the only two bad thing are only certain kinds of weapons can destroy certain kinds of targets and stick sensitivity is a huge problem. You can ame and the reticlel on the target and be scared by someone and you accidentaly hit the stick and you can fire a mile to the right or lert. All in
all I Highly RECOMEND THIS GAME!

Awseome Game

This is a great game. It is fun to play and intense but not gory. The plot is that you have to lead your squad of four commandos behind enemy lines. I have the gamecube version and I love the fact that your troops will gain experience and rank as you beat the levels.
It looks so realistic too!
I also like the fact that you can't just come in shooting and expect to win, you have to plan your attack. Strategy plays a big role in this game.
Also if you have the gamecube you and three friends will be able to take the places of the other commandos in your squad in co-op mode. It is much more fun when you are playing with real people.
Anyway you should definetly consider going out and buying this game.

Great Squad Shooter!!!

I have owned all three ports of this game, and honestly this is my least favorite. However, I still love this title. The GC version has slightly more akward controls than it's rivals, AI is still just as solid. The squad based mission orders are controlled by a basic, easily learned control format. Weapons are somewhat realistic but you are required to find weapons caches for ammo and guns, a big disappointment to gamers used to picking up and using the enemy's weapons. Multiplayer (UP to 4) cooperative is awesome for this game! Requires some thought and don't forget to take cover, for me this game is more enjoyable than Ghost Recon or Navy SEALS. Love this game!!!

Coflict: Desert Storm (READ THIS! TRUST ME)

This game is awesome!!!!!! It is the best 3rd person shooter/war game that I have ever played! I have never played a 3rd person shooter game before i played this one. And i love 3rd person shooters now! It takes place in the middle east during the Gulf War in 1991 and this is the most realistic war game out there right now. The game has great graphics and great missions. The missions seem like they take a long time, but they really arent long at all. When you fire your gun, you can actually see the bullets path because it has a long yellow line that trails it. Its not really all that great. Its ok in all but at least they could have made the line a little bit smaller and thinner, then i think it would be ok. But it does give you the edge of getting out of the way so you concerve health.
The new the "Conflict: Desert Storm" game (Back to Bagdad) is supposidly coming out for Gamecube sometime in 2003.(i hope)

The controls for this game arent very hard at all, like some of the other games out there. It definatly tops Ghost Recon. Once you play this game for awhile, you get used to it and really good at it. It takes some thinking sometimes when you need to switch guys or control them. And when you get tired of playing the game 1 player, call some friends over and play 4 player with this. This game is the best multiplayer action game out there. I really do reccomend this game. You cant go wrong when your spending your time playing this game.

Unbelievable!!! I'm Obsessed!!!

I bought this game almost a half year ago, and i must say that with playing it VERY VERY often, my and my friends never get tired of this one!!! Some of my favorite qualities of this game is that a 4 player game can be saved and resumed as a 1,2, or even 3 player game. This way i can play w/ my friends and when they leave, i can continue it alone. It also allows you to save many files, which is very good, you will find because the only level you can play in a file is the level that you are up to.

Worth Your Money

I rented this game when I first played it I thought it was gonna be like Ghost Recon. But I was wrong! This is much better! I recommend this for single-player and multiplayer play. Especially fun with you and 3 friends!
