Advantages: Brilliant gameplay, Excellent online multiplayer, Lots of different types of missions

Disadvantages: Takes up lots of memory, Had one error message, but was easily fixed

...in fact, it's the only WWII game I have ever played, and I loved it.

MOHAA by EA Games comes in dvd-style packaging, and with two cds. Unfortunately, it does take up quite a bit of memory (1.2 GB hard-drive, 128 MB RAM), and you do need newer versions of graphics cards, and Direct X (16 MB graphics card, Direct X 8), but it is definitely worth it, as it has brilliant graphics, and is one of the best games I have ever played on the PC.

In MOHAA, you are Lt. Mike Powell, an American soldier in the OSS, who has to go on several missions, to rid the world of Nazi tyranny. You go through bout 6 very different levels, each with several different objectives, ranging from saving another soldier in the first mission, to getting the equipment for blowing up the barbed wire, when you land on Omaha beach.

I've only had one problem with the game so far, and that was an error message to do with OpenGL, which you need to run the game. I do have OpenGL, and MOHAA ran fine for a couple of days, when it suddenly crashed, and gave me an error message saying something about it not being able to load an OpenGL subsystem. Whenever I then tried to play the game, on start up, it would give me the error message. I looked it up on the Internet, and found that lots of other people had had the same problem as me, and there were lots of different solutions available. I tried one out, and it worked fine.

Overall, one of the best games I have ever played on the PC, and I would strongly recommend purchasing this game.
