  • Summary: In a conflict that lasted 11 years and took more than three million lives, four men experience the longest 28 days ever. Cut off behind enemy lines during the 1968 Tet Offensive with no way to contact help, four young, barely trained soldiers realize that their only hope for survival is to head into the heart of darkness. Now, with few rations and dwindling ammunition, you must guide these soldiers across 100 miles of ruthless terrain crawling with unseen enemies. As you drive a wide range of vehicles, shoot era-specific weapons, and avoid enemy booby traps, remember--you're not trying to win any war--you're just trying to make it home alive. Expand

  1. SCi have done a marvellous job with the high detail, which comes across well in both the audio and visuals. In fact it's so detailed that it feels real.
  2. If there is one thing I did notice is that many of the game’s textures are a bit blurry and bland which contrasts the excellent jungle architecture.
  3. This game is long...and the ability to save is minimal.
  4. Despite Conflict Vietnam’s faithful, regurgitated depiction of the reality of war in Vietnam, the mechanics of the game are far too poor to make it recommendable to any but the most hardcore fans of gritty war games.

    JUEGAZO, ambientación perfecta, doblaje estupendo al español, el mejor juego de la saca conflict, excitante, acción frenética y sobre todo ambientación, ambientación brutal.... llevo nueve misiones y no he parado desde que lo compré, fases en lancha por los rios, lluvia fantásticamente realizada... BRUTAL. no debéis dejarlo pasar... VAMOS, VAMOS, VAMOOOOOS.... le resto un punto porque personalmente me gustan más los shoters subjetivos... y porque estoy esperando esa gran joya llamada men of valor.... saludos desde españa. Expand

    If you are about 30 and younger, like me...you haven't lived through the actual war times but rather lived the "vietnam hype" times of the eighties. movies like full metal jacket, platoon and apocalypse now to name a few...now, the hype is back in the gaming world...slightly too late but it's here. seems like men of valor will take the crown as the king of nam games but i find that conflict vietnam has a very attractive approach to it's audience which is honest and fun and more enjoyable and even offer more options than valor. buzzing hue choppers over head, rolling stones music in the back and napalms exploding is what one expects in a nam game, maybe i am being too basic but its true. conflict nam feels like it was crafted out of clay and everything (no matter how cartoon like) seems tangible. the fully 3-d rendered helicopters coming to pick you up, the environments and the vehicles you get to drive around, all of it...somehow...artistically and otherwise are more satisfactory than men of valor. call me crazy, thats how i feel. it's a friendly game, like as if your favorite uncle designed it...people say it has flaws, but i find it very,very enjoyable. in the end every game has flaws, like the boredom in halo2 makes me more upset than any problem conflict nam has. i suggest you not pass up on conflict vietnam....take it for a ride and see it for yourself.

    Loved the two previous titles in the Conflict series however this one doesnt cut the mustard. The shaky gameplay & baffling comabt engine make this a lottery of a game where no tactical advantage can be reached trudging through badly lit & indescernable graphics. Will play this until the end - but it is a frustrating & jittery outing drenched in medocrity. Expand
