Attention!!! Do not buy the disc. Go to the Kuma War website and download this game for free. I got burned by buying the disc and being told by Kuma War tech support that the disc is no longer recognized. Be prepared for about 3 to 4 hours of download time for the game menu, then another 3 to 4 hours to download all the missions (72 total at this time).

4.0 out of 5 stars Sounds like it's in bad taste? It's not, really., July 21, 2005

This review is from: Kuma War: The War on Terror (CD-ROM)

My first response when i read the description of this was.... dude, now that's in bad taste. Our soldiers over there dying and someone makes a game about it? But honestly, once i decided to let the voyeur in me buy the game, i found it to be quite enjoyable. Very simplistic in its' approach. No mind-boggling graphics. And an AI system that is usually quite strong, but sometimes fails. Especially the whole 'follow-me' thing. Sometimes they just wanna do their own thing. Now, usually that would make a game unplayable. But, not so with this one. It does not glamourize the deaths of our soldiers. Thank goodness. It is really more about the forces we are facing over there right now. While there are many varying opinions about the war, one cannot deny 'who' we are fighting. This is a quite reasonable recreation of a strategic war scenario with an RPG kind of element to it. It is an FPS. But, it goes a little beyond that. The game is surprisingly addicting given its' shortcomings. Lots of scenarios. Realistic battlesounds. Moderately good AI. But, overall, an acceptable shooter that delivers more on playability than on anything else.
