Not up to par, February 4, 2003
This review is from: Highland Warriors (CD-ROM)
While I like the storyline to this game, the game play just isn't that good. It's a very easy game to beat. My recomendation... download the free demo for this thing before you buy it. Decide then.

great game. finally something that isn't orcs or gods - been done over and over, yet that is all you ever see. highland warriors gives you something new - a look back and the chance to play with history. william wallace, robert the bruce and king edy I are brought to life with you at the controls. want to know why they called this the bloodiest time in history - well just strap on your sword, prepare your longbow and load the catapult and you will be thrust into the center of the battle. yes - i mean the center of battle for the camera zooms in for close ups, something you never see in a rts. the graphics are great but the voices are somewhat annoying but you get to remove all the buttons from the screen so you can see all the action. if you like the movie braveheart, you will love this game.

Buggy and lacks finesse, March 11, 2003
This review is from: Highland Warriors (CD-ROM)
This game "Highland Warriors" is a result of some great ideas and and some nice intentions that was very poorly implemented.
What is the point in having awesome graphics, when the released game can be at best described as a beta software. You create one user profile and next time you start the game u see 4 user profiles with the same name !!! Every time a in game cinemetics appear, you can go and have a nap. What is the use if you need a super computer for this? More over the audio in the in game videos are almost inaudible. Not to speak of instability.
If the creators of the game, provide a patch that fixes these bugs, this game will be worth hours of gameplay.
On a positive side, the graphics are fantastic, story line is impressive.
