  1. This expansion focuses on the little-known Italian and Sicilian campaigns of World War II.
  2. Continues the success and balanced gameplay that was found in the original.
  3. The new maps and vehicles are worth the 20 bucks.
  4. Just doesn’t have the significant number of new maps or gameplay changes that make an amazing expansion pack. Luckily does provide a good amount amusement for 20 bucks, making it a lot of bang for you’re buck.

    It rocks.
  2. Good expansion that gave us new transport, maps and weapons.
    But paying for a DLC as much as for a stand alone game that had nothing else mad
    e many people unhappy. Great addition anyway! Expand

    BF1942 is a great game but the expansion doesn't add much. A few maps en a few new weapons. This should have been a free download for the fans.
