Very immersive, engaging, and re-playable! (version 1.3)

As an "old-school" game developer, this is only my second game in 20 years. While killing WW2 enemy soldiers isn't what I could call "fun," I *really* enjoyed this game. My stock GeForce 6600 and Quad G5 was mostly up to the task, though I couldn't use the full 1920 x 1200 resolution on my 23" LCD without the game bogging down. I backed off a bit on the graphic settings, and it ran fine, with the only slight problem being inside smoke. The first time through, on Easy, I did get stuck in a few places where I couldn't figure out where to find an object, or how to get to a street that required going through a house. The things I liked best were how smart the other squad members were; the immersive sense of "being there" on various missions; playing different characters (a Russian, a Brit, and a Yank) in different campaigns; working as a unit with one other soldier or many; the banter and camaraderie within the squad; the many different kinds of battles in freezing Russia, the Libyan desert, and of course the Normandy coast to name a few. There are a *lot* of weapons to choose from. I found the sniper rifles and the anti-aircraft gun the most interesting. The game doesn't natively support a USB controller on a Mac, but the key commands are simple enough that I prefer them now. I'm currently replaying the game in Regular difficulty, and enjoying it even more.

The Best Game for a Mac

Call of Duty 2 is the most entertaining game I have experienced on the Mac - much better than Doom 4, Alien vs Predator, and Halo.^M
