95 % satisfaction, 5 % frustration
This is hands down the best "Commandos" game so far. It has vivid art style, great sound design (it's one thing to execute a nice backstab but it's so much better when it's accompanied by a punchy sound of the blade going through flesh along with the desperate grunt of your enemy), perfectly fitting atmospheric soundtrack and the voice acting (I played it in english) was just fine, definitely able to make you connect with your heroes (I don't know about you, but I never cared as much for my green berret guy from Commandos as I did for Yuki :) ). The dialogue may have been little cheesy sometimes but never to the point of cringe, and overal I enjoyed the interactions between my characters and the storyline. And then there's the Shadow Mode! It allows you to assign one action to each of your characters and then execute them all with a press of a single button - and there's nothing as satisfying as watching a meticulously planned attack on multiple enemies work out perfectly! Or maybe not - because one of your characters messed up and it's time to hit the Quickload button - no big deal - you'll be doing that a lot (I finished most of the missions with 100+ saves/loads - fortunatelly the quickload usually only takes a moment). Yes, this game is hard. But it's exactly that challenge, the feeling of overcoming seemingly impossible odds that makes completing every mission so rewarding. And most of the time it really is just your timing or trying something stupid that makes you mess up multiple times at the same spot. So, where's the speck of frustration that I mentioned in the title? Well, sometimes (fortunatelly quite rarely) you'll be required to execute a series of precise and time-critical actions while fighting a little with controls and the camera. Also one thing that annoyed me a bit (especially in the last mission) is that your characters can climb/jump only at certain spots and at times it seemed rather arbitrary. Still, a great game with a huge replay value!
