Amazon.com Product Description
In Battlefield 1942, you're a WWII soldier on a true-to-life battlefield, equipped with weapons that look and sound authentic, able to storm the beaches on foot or seamlessly jump into and out of any of 35 vehicles of war. The depth is incredible. While on foot, you play as one of five specialized classes (assault, medic, scout, antitank, or engineer) with varying equipment and abilities. The choice of vehicles ranges from a selection of tanks, jeeps, and other fairly standard mechanized land vehicles to exotic craft like battleships, submarines, and dive bombers. Best of all, you can pit yourself against your fellow man in objective-based online battles in four distinct WWII theaters of war: North Africa, South Asia Pacific, Western Europe, and Eastern Europe. This is everything that World War II Online should have been. This is Tribes 2 with better code, graphics, control--everything, and without the cheesy sci-fi trappings. This out-WWIIs Medal of Honor and Return to Castle Wolfenstein. This game is like the ultimate sandbox, with all the best toys.

2009 AND STILL THE BEST GAME EVER! June 8, 2009
Korean Food Sucks (USA)
Brutal, heart pounding, savage online fighting!
IF you are looking for a no prisoner game - this is it. You will drive: planes, jeeps, ships, subs, tanks, apc's, motorcycles, organ guns, landing craft and more.
After a few rounds you will show no mercy as you duke it out with 64 other online players and wipe out absolutely everything in your path in the major battlefields of World War II.
If you are looking for a good time this is it. It was made in 2002 and it is still the best first person shooter out there.
Still one of the best war games available December 31, 2008

I still play this game a lot with my pals online. It never gets old.
Even though the AI is a bit goofy, it is extremely entertaining.
This game brings in a lot of different elements that you can control - like flying planes, shooting flack guns, driving tanks just to name a few - along with being able to choose unique classes of player makes this a very dynamic game.
I love all of the mod packs you can buy or download for free.
I am a huge gamer overall and this rates in the top 5 for me.

This game is a great multiplayer game that I have personally played continuously for about 1 1/2 months now and still going strong. Its got all the core ingredients of a good fps and a lot of elements that some some games for one reason or another leave out. Like for instance the use of vehicles, the ability to use ladders, ability to swim, and an open sandbox environment to name a few. Granted many multiplayer games use open maps yet battlefield 1942 does a good job of keeping the maps interesting yet uncluttered for easy movements and tactics, which increases the fun factor for online games dramatically.
The graphics in this game are slightly ahead of its time(for its time), if that makes sense. The game was made I believe in 2002 and the graphics and overall mechanics make it seem like it was made in late 2003 or early 2004. So expect for a slight downgrade in visuals when compared to modern games. Yet dont worry since the gameplay more than makes up for it.
All in all, this is a top notch EA game made by guys that know there WWII(medal of honor). So expect only the best, and don't hesitate to buy it.
