  • Summary: Conflict: Desert Storm lets you lead one of the best known and most feared special operations forces in the world: the elite British SAS or the US Delta Force. Covert missions take you through hostile environments where only your expertise in stealth, tactics, and firepower will ensure the success and safety of your men. Your missions are as unpredictable as they are dangerous: from vital scud-hunting missions deep within enemy territory to highly secretive rescue and assassination operations in Baghdad itself.

  1. The opening movies hooks you and the training missions make the game seem innocent enough. Once you start playing however, the true nature of just how difficult this game really is become quickly apparent. This is not a game to be approached by the casual action gamer.
  2. Although it could have been improved even further — the graphics and vaguely cumbersome feel of the movement still need more refinement — as a tactical squad based shooter, this is easily the GameCube’s best.
  3. It's not like being there, but Desert Storm offers us a glimpse into what modern warfare is like.
  4. You’ll have to be extremely familiar with the controls to have a hope in hell of finishing the game.

    This is my favorite game. From the beginning to the end it was non-stop fun. I could not keep my hands of the controller. It was so tactical and it was a strategy based game. My friends and I played multiplayer and beat it. This game is nonstop fun. This game is one of the best real war time games of its kind. Loved it. Expand

    This game is one of the best games ever that i played for game cube. Me and my friends always play multiplayer i love having 4 people to control. Each character you control has their own weapons and features. The controls are a little tricky but overal a superb game. Conflict: Desert Storm is a strategy and shooter game. This was immediately added to my wishlist. Expand

    I don't know what the other guys are smoking -- this game is completely terrible. Everything about this game is flawed. I rented this game because the graphics on the box looked all right. When I got home, I had to excuse myself in front of my siblings for suggesting such a crappy game, and within four minutes of playing I decided to use my weeks rental of this game as a good use -- a door stop.
