Some Improvements over previous game, but...

I bought this game thinking it would surpass the Beach Head 2000 game. I was greatly dismayed to discover that the game's only controller is the mouse. The joystick capability is not incorporated into the game at all. A big mistake. The mouse control feature makes one's hand grow tired after a few levels.
While the terrain, vehicles, aircraft have been improved, the mouse is far more difficult to operate than the joystick, as in the previous game. Had they put the joystick feature option in the game, it would be a blast. Stick with the first game. I intend to raise heck with the folks that produced the game. Too bad, it's concept is a lot of fun.

Great game for the price! Great Stress relief!

Not the best game around but for the price it is very fun. Relieves stress as you blow the hell out of things including people. Great graphics and sounds!

This game is really, really bad!

The original Beach Head was programmed by Roger and Bruce Carver back in 1983. Taking up a whopping 172K of disk space, it was a huge success for the duo and led to the formation of Access Software. The game here is similar in name only.

So what happens in this game? You're on a sit and spin and shoot little pixelated men. Meanwhile helicopters and tanks fire at you and eventually kill you. Anything else? Nope! So what's the object? Nothing! Shoot until you run out of ammo and die!

It's becoming pretty clear that anything published by Wizard Works is pretty much junk. Avoid this title!

This game is a keeper

And cheap, too! I read some of the other reviews of this game and its really kinda sad, just because the controls are a little iffy doesnt make it a bad game. Even though the controls are just a little frustrating, they become tolerable and then almost make it more challenging and fun! It just proves that this isn't some action game you can just pick up and blow away all the bad-guys, you have to work at it and improve, and soon you'll be goin' into the millions point-wise...

Very good game for the money

This is a great game. When I come home I don't wanna mess around with "rescuing that hostage", or "blowing up that bunker" I just wanna blow some stuff up. It has great weapons, inteligent enemies,and some cool gameplay. Oh yeah, to all you people who didn't like it, that's just your opinion and other people might look for different qualities in a game.
Overall a great addition to any collection

WOW

This game is WAY better than 2000. You can shoot easier there are more enimeies and more weapons ect. Also the graphics are tunned up a bit more. Thbis game is cool and its a must have if you got the original and a have if you like d-day or any fps. The only down is that the levels are all the same with addition of more enimies and the go up to infinity so thats why i have it 4 stars but still this is a game where you are a guy like a german on dday defending a beach and you hit falling boxes to get ammo ect ect.

Worst Game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

This game is a very bad game. When I bought it I expected to be marching around and fighting. All you do is stand in one spot and don't move at all.

PLEEZE! BORING!

beach head 2002 [stinks]. dont buy it. wow, a few new guns, but they all sound the same. Also, nigh-fighting is cool, but gets extremely repative. in fact, the whole game is extremely repetive. dont buy it. the new M60 is cool, and so is the vulcan, but they have the same rate of fire. if you have seen the movie predator, the vulcan in that movie sounds like a vacuum cleaner and in the game: 1. It fires no faster than the M60. 2. Is has the same amount of stopping power. ...
