Could someone PLEASE say something bad about this game so I can sleep at night without the urge to splurge? PLEASE.

Great article.  I've had a similar experience as Gus has had.  I like the game but am not overly fawning at it. 

Yes I ended up buying the game even after I returned it.  I don't regret the purchase and the game is great and all but it won't hold my attention for long.  That's just me though.  Still the good thing about having this game in my library is I can come back to it later and play again due to it's high replayability factor.

1) It sucks up too much of my free time.... :)
2) I'm not getting enough sleep because I'm playing it too late at night
3) My sides hurt from laughing at some of the post my fellow MP gamers are writing about the game

It makes no difference what men think of war, said the judge.  War endures.  As well ask men what they think of stone.  War was always here.  Before man was, war waited for him.  The ultimate trade awaiting its ultimate practitioner.  That is the way it was and will be.  That way and not some other way.

If they made nothing but WWII games, I'd be perfectly content.  Hypothetical matchups from alternate history 1980s, asymmetrical US-bashes-some-3rd world guerillas, or minor wars between Upper Bumblescum and outer Kaboomistan hold no appeal for me.

You been eating too much Drugged Puddin. Better lay off for a while else you'll end up in one of those Bactrian Drug Rehab places.  :hide:

You say that like it’s a bad thing.
