Think about it this way, developer WideScreen Games' Airborne Troops: Countdown to D-Day does not actually feature a widescreen mode.

Well then, that should just about do it!

2.0 Presentation
Even the map controls are backward. Seriously, how hard is it to figure out what left, right, up and down do?
5.0 Graphics
The game looks clean, but chops up. There not actually being any good animation is also a bit of a problem.
5.5 Sound
The only thing that doesn't repeat like a broken record is the main character... And to answer your question, yes, he sure does suck. At least the music is alright.
3.5 Gameplay
This category implies that there actually is some. If wandering around like an idiot looking for some random objective and occasionally stopping to shoot a German is gameplay, heck yes!
1.0 Lasting Appeal
I'm still not convinced a human can play this game twice without spontaneously combusting. I think the universe ensures that kind of thing.
