2 more reviews, 1 not recommended
I loved this game 20-30 years ago. It really brought me many wonderful memories. When I was a kid, I didn't have my own computer, so I never had the chance to finish it. Now, in my forties, I've finally finished it.
The commando series I bought all of them expecting a good but it looks good but there is no easy way to beat the missions the controls for characters navigating around map is awkward the sneaking is awkward you'll more likely get killed or spotted than have fun just playing the game. Its so hard I couldn't even get past the first level and I'm fine with other games. This games like a 2/10 the graphics are neat but...
