fun concept. good graphics for the time. but human interface is, annoying to say the least. every item has its own hotkey making it hard to switch weapons intuitively. no way to re assign key binds either. good luck!

Commandos 2 is a sequel to the beloved real-time tactics game, bringing back your favorite soldiers and a couple of new faces to move through new 3D maps and jankily complete objectives while consistently crashing. The 3D engine used by Pyro Studios is noticeably bad and sluggish, portraying your soldiers as slow-moving blobs. The game has a terrible user interface, requiring an enormous amount of time to get used...
