    European Assault will not take you by the hand and lead you to the finish. You'll have to fight for every inch of ground that you gain, and you'll meet your untimely demise more than a few times. Along the way, you'll experience a gritty, raw, and realistic combat experience that will give you a greater appreciation for what veterans of World War II went through.

    The intros and the voice-overs of the WWII veterans is what helps bring a sense of realism to this game.

    There is support for traditional splitscreen multiplayer gaming, but this mode doesn't offer enough to make European Assault a recommended title for those looking for multiplayer action. Because of the barebones multiplayer support, European Assault does not have as much life in it as your typical shooter.

    Gives World War II games a bad name by skimping on the essentials - story, A.I. and multiplayer - to focus on floating icons and the art of hiding behind crates. Instead, just hide your wallet.

    Firstly let me say i haven't played a moh game since the first one on the playstation (which i really enjoyed). Frontline and rising sun skipped me by, so when i saw this released i thought i might give it a try. The reviews from the 'professional' sites nearly put me off buying, but some other reviews said it was good so i thought i'd buy and try. And so far so good. Yes the graphics are not up to the likes of Halo 2 BUT it is a good game with good gameplay and reasonable enemy AI I for one am glad i bought it.… Expand

    A rather decent addition to the MOH series. It certainly has its flaws, but it was enjoyable how there were side missions that encouraged extra exploration of the levels. I felt that the squad tactics didn't quite work right, and the gameplay would have been better off without. Still worth playing if you're a MOH fan, even if it is somewhat outdated.… Expand

    This one is a stinker. Obviously EA realized they were losing the grip on WWII games. It poorly attempts to copy the best elements of Brothers in Arms and falls very short. Graphics are bad, AI is bad, gameplay is bad. Another thing is the inexplicably random difficulty of the levels. One board will be hard as Hades and the next will be float easy. The MOH franchise is on the way out, thankfully. If you want a good WWII play get Brothers in Arms. If you've already played that one, play it again, I promise it will be more satisfying than even renting this clunker. Boo.… Expand
