Call of duty finest hour was my first game on the xbox, and as i'm awful at it, i still haven't completed it, i'm stuck in Aachen shooting lots of nazi's in sewers.
First of all, the plusses, it's a brilliant game. You start the game in a little boat in the fog, and you slowly progress across a lake, and a burining stalingrad, with explosions, bullets flying, fighters strafing you all scaring the hell out of your comrades. An officer is in the boat yelling at you, shooting deserters and probably going to end up doing nothing in the battle. The actual first level is a bit slow to start, as you start without a gun, and you have to follow your sergeant. You follow him to a refinery and the first problems set in, light. My TV is quite ...

This game is a pretty good world war 2 game. It is quite realistic and has a fairly interesting storyline. The graphics are meedioca for this day an age but the game gets away with it. One thing that i think lets it down is the fact that you keep changing character and you lose the plot a bit. However you do fight in three major parts of the war and it doe make you feel like you are really there.The game does not take particually long to complete though is reasonably difficult.

Bit disappointed with this title, seems like game designers are churning out war games all day and not coming up with anything that sticks. Graphics of the game are pretty tame, the sound does make up for this game a lot though. The game starts of like most war game of this time as a large epic with loads of stuff going on you cant really take in all at once without having a headache. Controls got some getting used to, the viewing distance is great as with most Xbox titles but because of the lighting and texturing can sometimes have you squinting at the screen. Kills are satisfying but not gory if you like that sort of thing, the weapons are modelled will with good physics all round. I would say controlling the vehicles ... Read More:

Call of Duty: Finest Hour is indistinguishable from Medal of Honour: Frontline...except stuck permanently on an unfeasibly difficult setting. The gameplay, the visuals, the missions and even the load screens and cut scenes are virtually the same. The compass showing objectives is also borrowed unashamedly from MOH. So it brings very little new to the table. So it's a bog standard shoot 'em up with a well realised WWII setting. There's very little strategy, and the stories are really immaterial, and really you just get from one end of the map to the other shooting Germans on the way.
You can, in Call of Duty, play as first a Russian, then a British and then American soldier. So there is a little more variety - you fight in a wider ... Read More:

First things first: I know most of the other reviewers here have said it, but it's worth pointing out one more time - the COD games on the PC are fantastic, far better than the Medal Of Honor series, mainly due to the excellent way they recreate the loud chaos of war going on around you. This element is the one thing that 'COD Finest Hour' manages to replicate pretty well for XBox. The sound is defeaning, explosions and gunfire are all around you...it creates a really powerful atmosphere. Unfortunately, almost every other aspect of the PC games has been spoiled in some way, resulting in an almost unplayable title. For example:-
* The weapons in the game are difficult to use with any accuracy and seem to do little damage. Plus, enemies ... Read More:
