1945 all over again.

We all know that for a long time, WWII was the bread-&-butter of videogames.

So, in the midst of all that, what is your favourite WWII-themed game?

I would say that mine is the IL-2/Pacific Fighters series. Not only the best WWII games, but the best combat flight sims as well.

Blitzkrieg! Probably that anyway, I love WW2 themed stuff, so I've got tonnes of it.

Probably a showdown to the death between Call of Duty 2 and Company of Heroes. Both excellent games.

Honourable mention to Brothers in Arms: Hells Highway.

Call of Duty 2 is not only my favorite WWII game, but my favorite game of all time.

That was an awesome game! Took me forever to realise it was a puzzle game, not really an RTS - villages and enemy bases were puzzles to be solved rather than objectives to take. Well, unless you had a sniper. Then it was just sneak forward and bombard until victory, unfortunately. >>

Company of Heroes, my favourite RTS, favourite WW2 game and quite high in my list of top games that ever existed.

 

[MrShowerHead]

Hearts of Iron series
Especially the second one

 

[Simple Bluff]

Medal of Honour: Rising Son. May only be due to the fact that nostalgia is clouding my judgement (being the first WWII game I ever played), but whatever. COD 2 is a close second.

 

[Pandalisk]

Hearts of Iron
World at War
CoD classic
Men of War

Its allll good.

Sad truth right there. Hard levels became an exercise in shelling the shit out of everything.

Probably COD 2 the only COD I've really played, also probably my favorite FPS after Rainbow 6 Vegas 1/2

Company of Heroes all the way! I love that RTS.
