This has to be the worst game i have ever played. the graphics are not good at all. When first starting out, u cann't even see the player, plus its very difficult to move/learn the different cotrols for each different character. Do not buy this game, i garentee that it will be one of the worst games that u will ever play on the xbox, or any game system!

I guess it could have been worse...

I won't rate this game as low as I guess I should. In some ways it's fun and challenging, but in more ways it is frustrating. It is difficult to see the characters. It takes a long time to learn how to do everything in the game, such as pick up certain items and use certain weapons. It's not as userfriendly as other games I've played.
The one saving grace is that it has unlimited saves, as any good game should; you'll need them. I would have chunked it from the beginning had it not been for the saves. Even at that, and using a guide to go by, it's very difficult to accomplish the major missions. There is only a certain set of actions in a certain order that will lead to success. It is boring, yet addictive at the same time. In a way it reminds me of the Sims at war.
Much of the game is spent killing off or gaging and hiding 1 enemy at a time; and when you have several to get out of the way, that can take a while.
If you like challenging games with not a lot of action this might be for you. The challenging part does get me into it. But the lack of action and poor graphics are a big downside.
The camera angles are bad too. It doesn't really rotate smoothly around your character; you have to rotate and the angle jumps. It's not so bad until you get around high walls and it one rotation takes you away to where you can't find your man.

This game is the worst of my collection. You can hardly see the charcters. The controls are hard, and the men can only do certain things. My advice dont buy the game; its a waste of money.

Just got this game a day ago and am already looking to sell it. This is by far the most complicated game I have ever played due to the controls. The game does have a wonderful tutorial for learning the controls that from start to finish is only about an hour long. EIDOS should have packaged this game with a 300 page quick referance guide just for the controls. This is probably the worst game I have ever purchased. Granted it is very complicated to learn; however you would think it would be fun to play once you get the controls down. Even though it's supposed to be an action game I did not find much action in it at all

Absolutely impossible to play. This game is way too complicated. There must be a hundred combination of buttons to remember to get things done. Some men can only do certain things and have to remember who can carry a gernade and who can't. Who can set a trap and who can't. Then try to rember which combination of buttons to push to make the man plant the bomb. After twenty minutes of set up time the enemy attacks but it happens so fast you can't move any of your men around in response to the attack. If you lose even one of your men the games over. The game becomes very frustrating and becomes very boring very quickly. This game STINKS

I bought this game for computer thinking it to be very exciting and action packed. But actually this game is extremely boring. First, hte controls are very difficult to understand. Second, this game is incredibly difficult. I owned this game for 2 months and only beat two levels. I ,personally, like action games that put you on the edge of your seat. This game made you get on the edge of your seat because you almost fell asleep playing it. Even if you turn down the difficulty, it is still nearly impossible. The view is third person lokking from above onto the game. Sometimes this view can get very frustrating in parts of the game. Therefor, this game is definently not worth your money. If someone gave this game 4 or 5 stars i would be very fascinated to figure out what is wrong with them.

Man I thought ... stink

While interesting in concept, Commandos 2 is a flawed game that turns repetitive and boring after a little while. First of all, the gameplay is very dull, it's missing the real depth of a good strategy game. I'm not complaining for a lack of action, a game can be good without all that shooting found in other WWII titles, but it just doesn't get to you. Non impressive graphics, cumbersome controls, and weak musical score and sound effects don't help either. Too bad, it could've been a great game.

Grappics-2 out of 5: they just don't take advantage of the Xbox's graphical power. While the maps look nice (but sometimes small), it's difficult to distinguish characters and objects, and sometimes the characters just plainly blend in with the environment and are nearly invisible.

Sound-2 out of 5: a dull soundtrack and weak sound effects make this game even more boring.

Control-2 out of 5: clumsy controls make it difficult to access your commando's abilities, though the object administration is not all bad, and moving them from place to place takes time. Another disadvantage is the lack of abilities for certain commandos.

Fun-2 out of 5: the idea was great, but it turns out to be a big disappointment, and constantly repeating stages because of a misstep will frustrate you. Not recommended at all.
