    Panzer Corps has brought back a flood of wonderful memories for me and while I fully realize that I'm a certified Panzer General fan boy and that could possibly cloud my judgment of the merits of Panzer Corps, all I know is that my campaign ended in a German defeat.

    When it comes to being Panzer General, Panzer Corps beats the pants off the competition.

    Hexagonal turn-based strategy at its best. But is a remake of a 10-year-old classic Panzer General all we can hope for if we look for quality? [Issue#208]

    I'm loving this game. I haven't had this much of "just one more turn" in years. We done. I also love that the game is from the German pov; not that common.… Expand

    This is a no excuses remake of panzer general. Apart from the obviously enhanced graphics it is about 98% identical to the original game. Is this bad? No it's awesome, Panzer General did not need "fixing" it just needed re releasing.! The 2% that has changed has changed for the good. An example, if you surround an opponents unit with several of your own units who have still got their shooting action for the turn left, you get a bonus when you attack. In the old panzer general you had to attack with one, then another then another, with no benefit for each attack. Although you still launch the attacks separately you get a bonus for each neighbouring unit, making outflanking and swamping that really tough enemy unit a viable (and realistic) tactic. If you were a panzer general fan then I would say it is a no brainer, you MUST buy this game. If you are not ancient enough to have played the original game and are looking for a really interesting strategic WW2 game then look no further... Andy Watkins… Expand

    Don't fall for the majority of positive user reviews here as i did! They are mostly written by the producers or people that worked for the game. (people with 1 single review here on metacritic ) I will just say one thing : it's a shame that after all these years , all the technology available and other stuff... to come with a weaker game than the original Panzer General. PG 2 is a god compared to this . Maps in PC look just awful , they looked much better in PG2. Units are too small on high resolution systems and graphics are really poor for a 2011 released game , attack interface is rubbish. This is just the type of PG clone-game the the producers wanted to take nothing good from the PG series just to make the game a little different and not just look they are copying PG. Too bad because the features that were changed were actually the ones that needed no change or they were changed into the worst. I understand they are a small team and they tried their luck with a remake. But you'll have to invest more time and resources to get PG's crown. Maybe that is the problem , i expected too much from it and i received too little… Expand
