Editorial Review:

Product Description:
West Germany, 1988. To avoid certain collapse, the Soviet army boldly advances into Europe. NATO responds only to be met on a second front -- a diversionary attack on the American homeland. You are a field commander, leading the era's most powerful military machines in the campaign to retake America's cities and suburbs. Unleash ground-shaking artillery barrages, napalm strikes, and awesome tactical nukes that turn the tide of battle. ESRB Rated T for Teen.

From the Manufacturer:
On November 9th, 1989 the Cold War was supposed to end…it didn’t.

World in Conflict is the action strategy game where players defend their country, their hometown, and their families in the face of Soviet-led World War III, delivering an epic struggle of courage and retribution. You are a field commander leading the era's most powerful military machines in the heroic effort to turn back the invasion…one city and suburb at a time. This war isn’t on television. It’s on our soil and in our backyards.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good
Very good game.
Fun to play with friends if they have it.
Campaign is good.


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Very entertaining rts
Real time strategy as you fight WW3 in the mid 1980s.
If you saw the film Red Dawn, this is the kind of thing you see here, Russians invading the US mainland and you control a variety of troops to try to hold back the red hoard. You play the part of a lieutenant undertaking a number of missions, very similar to Company Of Heroes but with more modern weapons. Mainly you control ground troops, but there is one chapter where you command helicopters fighting above New York and the Statue of Liberty. ... Read More


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Red Dawn: The Video Game
In the late 80s, when "Everybody Wants To Rule The World" is ruling the radio, a war is going on in Europe, and when this volatile pot starts boiling, it somehow moves to America. At first, in only starts on Ellis, Governor's, and Liberty Island, but it then those sneaky Reds come ashore in Seattle and start wreaking havoc. Unfortunately, the only ones who are there to defend the area just got back from a tiring tenure in Europe. What follows is a desperate attempt to keep those pesky Commies at bay, and ... Read More


Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - World of Conflict Does not run
The web is peppered with users who cannot get this game to run on their computers and tech support is non existent. Both XPP and Vista are having issues with the game and there are many suggestions to fix it on the web none seemed to work. I run and XPS 1710 w/ Vista Business premium and the game would crash any time I picked a menu choice from the main menu. I would get a reloading resource and a stop functioning error. Bad programming and worse support. Demo worked fine.....


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - This game is simply the BESTTTTTT!!
Where to begin, this game has all the likes and none of the dislikes of an RTS game. I must admit I was scared at how this game would run on my system but it actually runs really really well. The game has amazing graphics, unreal explosions that look by far the best of any other video game, decent story and not many bugs. I'd highly recommend this game if you're an RTS fanatic like myself. This game and Company of Heroes truly got me into this whole RTS game thing, and this game only revolutionizes what they ...
