Ironically, I had preordered the console version of Call of Duty long before I had played the PC version. Yet with the release date oh so far away, I decided to take advantage of the recent price drop of the Call of Duty PC game hoping that it would tide me over. However, after playing countless hours of the game on my PC, I'd have to say that Call of Duty: Finest Hour is a bit of a disappointment. I understand that a console has nowhere near the processing power of a PC, yet I couldn't help but feel underwhelmed by FH's graphics which were simple and bland at best. However, I was mostly disappointed in the lack of save points throughout a level. That meant after spending ten minutes or so blasting your way through a difficult level, you would have to start the campaign all over again from start to finish if your player is killed. I always appreciate a challenge, yet not when the odds are overwhelmingly stacked against me. The one aspect that the console version did translate well was the "war is hell" theme. The beginning level featuring you as a Russian soldier taking back Stalingrad from the "steeking Germans" was intense with gunfire raining all around you and enemy soldiers around every corner. The death animations are overly exaggerated which made in difficult to distinguish whether or not an enemy was either wounded or dead only to have them shoot you in the back. I played this game for only an hour before I filed it away with my other games. I imagine that I will someday go back, but in the meantime, I'm having too much fun with the PC version.

This game is very realistic, making you feel like you are really there on the battle field. Graphics are amazing. The game gets a little frusturating after a while, but if you are patient you will succeed. I highly reccomend this game, especially if you like action packed adventure!

Many Hits, but a few misses

This game was very fun, but hard. I agree with the person who said it was hard to distinguish dead from alive. They stand frozen for a few seconds then fall, making them either recover and kill you, or you waste ammo. Also the save system. A level is seemingly impossible, and you are working your hardest, and you are killed, and have to start where you were about ten minutes earlier. So aggrivating, you are discouraged and turn the game off. And there is no multiplayer. So once you complete it (which I did in 2 days) there's nothing more to do. I also noticed a minor lack of famous WWII events. The siege of Stalingrad and the bridge level are the only widely known things that I noticed. This game was a lot of fun, with some tough times, and I at least recommend waiting until the price goes down because I don't think it is entirely worth it to some people. But it was a good game anyway, a suitable length, easy enough, overall a well made game.

The best first-person WWII game I've played

Excellent graphics, even better sound. The sound effects immediately impressed me.. reminded me of "Saving Private Ryan". Almost too realistic at times.

Has a few shortcomings, but overall it's a very good game.

very fun !!!!!!!!!!!!!

This game is very fun. It keeps me entertained all the time. The graphics are very good. The story mode is good too. The only thing I don't like about it is there is not enough save points in the level. Because when I'm really far in a level and I die I get so pissed off. That is such pain in the ass. Other than that I would reccomend this game to every one who loves war games.
