Sept 28, 2007 Company of Heroes was one of those games that utterly exceeded our expectations. Not only did it manage to recreate the visceral brutality of warfare, it also succeeded in striking that ever-elusive balance between accessibility and strategy. Opposing Fronts introduces two new factions into the WWII meat grinder, each starring in its own campaign. First up are the plucky Brits, a defensively stout faction specialising in anti-tank weapons and artillery, and possessing some of ...

Somewhere in between defending ...   » Read Full Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts preview

Company of Heroes is head and shoulders above its various competitors in that most populated of genres to exist on PC - the WWII RTS. While Relics experience from previously successful titles such as Homeworld 2 and Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War has undoubtedly helped, theyre still competing in a pretty crowded field. Its something that the developers are keenly aware of. “On Company of Heroes, we really wanted to reinvigorate the RTS genre,” says lead designer Josh Mosqueira. ...   » Read Full Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts preview
