SO INCREDIBLY UNDERATED AND MISAPPROPRIATED...

WHENEVER I COME ACROSS A REVIEW ABOUT DSII THAT RATES IT AS MEDIOCRE TO AVERAGE, I'M SO BEWILDERED AND CONFUSED....
AND THEN I DRAW THE SAME CONCLUSION - THE DESERT STORM SERIES IS A THINKING MAN'S GAME, IT'S NOT FOR THE AVERAGE MINDED GAMER WHO JUST WANTS MAYHEM, CHAOS AND IMMEDIATE SATISFACTION THROUGH DESTRUCTION - THOSE OF YOU WHO NEED THAT, PICK UP "GRAND THEFT", AND BE BORED WITHIN AN HOUR. DSII WILL GIVE YOU YEARS OF ENJOYMENT.

DESERT STROM II HAS SIGNIFICANT IMPROVEMENT OVER DESERT STORM, AND THANKFULLY SO. BECAUSE MY FAVORITE GAME WENT FROM DESERT STORM, TO DESERT STORM II.

I HAVE YET TO FIND ANY OTHER SIMULATED WAR GAME ON ANY SYSTEM THAT OFFERS WHAT DSII OFFERS. NO OTHER WAR GAME ALLOWS YOU TO DROP AND ROLL. NO OTHER WAR GAME HAS C4 PLASTIC EXPLOSIVES THAT CAN BE MANIPULATED LIKE DSII. NO OTHER WAR GAME HAS CLAYMORE MINES, AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, NO OTHER WAR GAME ALLOWS YOU TO MOVE YOUR OTHER MEN AS STRATEGICALLY, EASILY AND ACCURATELY AS DSII.

THE SNIPER IS FAR SUPERIOR TO OTHER GAMES, THE BAZOOKA, THE FOCUS ON ENEMY TROOPS IS A MILLION TIMES BETTER. THE LASER DESIGNATOR WAS THE FIRST AND BEST. OTHER WAR GAMES DON'T HAVE THE PHOSPHORUS GRENADES THAT SET ENEMY TROOPS ON FIRE. THE GRAPHICS ARE WONDERFUL AND THE SOUNDS ARE SUPERIOR TO THE OTHER WAR GAMES. THE MUSIC IS TREMENDOUS. THE FACT THAT IT HAS SO MANY DIFFERENT LEVELS THAT YOU MUST BE SUCCESSFUL AT TO CONTINUE IS SO GREAT, AS WELL AS 4 DIFFERENT SETTINGS: EASY, MEDIUM, HARD AND EXTREME - NO OTHER WAR GAME HAS THAT!!!! I'M TELLING YOU, THIS GAME ROCKS!!! THIS GAME IS AWSOME!!! I'M PRAYING FOR DSIII TO COME OUT SOON.

I HAVE TO ADMIT, WHEN CONFLICT CAME OUT WITH VIET NAM, THEY FAILED. THAT GAME DESERVES A MEDIOCRE RATING. BUT I THINK THE REVIEWERS OF DESERT STORM I AND II, WHO GIVE THIS GAME AN AVERAGE OR BELOW AVG. RATING, CAN'T SEEM TO GET PAST THE EASY LEVEL, AND ARE JUST FRUSTRATED. ANYONE GIVING THIS GAME ANYTHING LESS THAN 5 STARS IS JUST SOMEONE CONTENT WITH GAMES THAT DON'T REQUIRE TOP SKILL AND THOUGHT.

Better than the original but still pretty horrible

Ok, creators of this game. Why a sequal?! It's the same story and the charactors look good but there is some bad animations throughout the entire game. The AI is improved but they aren't as smart. The audio...bad. Just listen to the gun shots and the voices. The worst part in the audio is you have to listen to them. The blood looks like powder. But your teammates are still stupid. Although its still better than the original(How Surprising) it's still below average

Um... this game is great! It has great graphics, great music, but it's very challenging. On the eighth level you get captured by the Iraqis and the U.S. drops bombs to let out one of your men. You only have a knife and you have to rescue the other three men. I beat it, though, cuz I rock!!! By all means, buy this game!!!!

desert storm is the second most realistic game I've played but it's the best game I've ever played!!! All the guns are real. The graphics are great! The makers should of made multiplayer so you can go against each other instead of cooperative. The unrealistic part is when you get shot in the head,neck, or chest you don't die. Other than that it is a perfect mix of hard and easy !!!!!!!!!!!!

Outstanding shoot-em up

If you love a squad based shoot-em up game this has got to be the game for you. The game has outstanding graphics from the great Xbox power.
Through out the game there are excellent missions what are just outstanding and mission that once I got started I just could not stop until I had finished them.
The overall weapons that are available to you are just outstanding.
Through the game you can interact with helicopter Jets. With the vehicles you can drive tanks and the main vehicle that you can use is a jeep type truck.
This a great game for the shoot-em up gamer , I must say must have.

Fun Co-op Game

My wife and I played this game immediately after finishing Conflict Desert Storm (game one) and really enjoyed it. In comparing the two games I can say the primary differences are:
1.) CDS II has better graphics
2.) CDS II allows you to save more often
3.) CDS II is shorter
4.) CDS II is easier to complete
5.) CDS II has more vehicles to drive
Overall we really enjoyed the game and it's probably something that you can rent and finish in a fairly short amount of time. I paid $35 for my game and I thought that was a good value; however, I'm not sure I'd pay $50 for it. If you're looking for a good co-op adventure game try both Conflict Desert Storm and Conflict Desert Storm II. You can now buy the first game for $19.99, since it's a platinum hit.

An Exellent Squad Based shooter kinda reminds me of the war

This game is great; with the cool guns, vehicles, combat , squad orders, it makes you feel like your in the gulf war. I just rented this game and I had 2 friends over to spend the night and we had the most fun time in cooperative. I was just amazed at how fun it was even when i beat it I kept playing, I highly recommend this game.

One of the best quad based fighting games ever

Conflict Desert storm 2 is one of the best war games on the market to date. You lead a 4 man sqaud of a sniper (foley) a man specializing in explosives (Jones) and a guy with the high powered guns (connors) you also have a squad leader (bradly). The game uses realistic command to tell your squad to follow you stand down fire at will and many more. The missions are a real challenge and usaully you must play multyplayer to beat them multyplayer is very fun so this is a good thing. There are also many diffrent weapons to choose from like diffrent guns explosives, and other things that come in handy like binoculars for scoping out the area they also have night vision. Here are some pros and cons of the game.

Pros:
1. Realistic squad based game
2. You get to control 4 guys
3. Tons of weapons to choose from
4. You can tell your men many commands
5. You interact with helecopters Jets and can drive tanks and a jeep type truck
6. Great game
7. Enemy can surprise you and arnt predictable
Cons:
1. Missions can get hard at times

Overall this is a great game and I sugest you buy it. Its defenitly worth the price.

best game ever
