Frustrating.

Honestly, this game is not the least bit fair. Enemies are fast and have very good aim. Often, you are pitted against giant tanks that you can only kill at close range. You are often stuck in tight corridors filled with all kinds of turrets that will tear you to pieces very fast. There are sniper sections. I thought the concept for this game was pretty good, but the difficulty curve is very steep and, graphically, the game looks gloomy, which I guess was the idea. This game is yet another case of over-ambition. It is in no way the worst game in the world, but it has a few of the elements, which is enough to bring it down. That being said, it is still worth a try.

Not even altering history can save it

I got this game some years ago, and while I could remember playing it, I couldn't recall why I never saw the end of it. Playing it again recently, I quickly discovered why my past memories were so fuzzy. Turns out I'd been shutting out the memories of the constant slew of trenches and the pointless frustration of an all seeing, perfectly accurate AI system and guns that mostly took up space rather than providing solutions. While I can appreciate that the actual real-life trench warfare was a terrible thing to experience where death lurked and you felt hopelessly impotent, that really isn't the feeling you want your players to have when they're playing your games, especially when you're going as far as to change history to justify your setup. Needlessly lazy artificial difficulty, a muddy UI and control scheme, and just plain dull graphic design make Iron Storm a dreary alternate-history what-if game. Not completely incompetent, but not recommended either. If you really, really want alternate history and the FIrst World War together in a game, play Darkest of Days--that one's also a bit dodgy and quite absurd, but at least it's put together a bit more reasonably and there's at least a few flashes of brilliance in its various visual and level designs.

Had Promise...but that's it.

Iron Storm is one of those games that had "promise." With a wonderful story, and a rather unique concept, you'd think that the game would have become one of the top games when it was released; and had the game been released when it was supposed to have been, then yes, it probably would have. However, there's a problem. Iron Storm was meant to be released around the time of the original Half Life game. Looking at the graphics, it's not hard to tell this. Problem was, the developer ran into some trouble. By trouble, I mean that they ended up being bought out by another company, who took one look at Iron Storm and said "Eh, not worth it." So a development team of several dozen men and women (more than enough really) was suddenly cut down to only a handful. Then, to make things worse, even though the game needed some serious work the new owners wanted not to produce quality entertainment as the previous company did, and instead sought to just get as many games out there as they could. The saying "If you throw enough crap at the wall, something's gotta stick" comes to mind. Well in Iron Storm's case, that was the company's philosophy. Iron Storm was released in the latest Alpha build, with all the bugs associated with it. To the point that one out of three discs which were sold, wouldn't even work. If you can get around numerous bugs, gameplay issues, and random crashes for no apparent reason; then the game's somewhat worth the trouble.

Not for everyone

It could be frustaiting to a lot of people, the broken AI, the design of the levels, the gunplay...
