    Well you`re useful, wander into the games forum by accident did you.

    Delta Force: BHD is nothing special and has a weird feel to it compaired to other games of similar style. Conflict Desert Storm 2 is supposed to be equally poor.

    Is this on the PC

    Get Battlefield 1942 and downlaod the DesertCombat mod for one :) .... and once Battlefield Vietnam is out we can expect some great modern day warfare mods for that too.... Fantastic!

    I never liked DF:BHD. Played a few demo's of it and never really liked it. Very much pants I found. Anyone I know who has played it didnt like it either,

    Conflict Desertstorm 2 I have yet to play. Played the first one on the XBox and didnt like it that much really. Im not too much of a console gamer I have to say... keyboard and mouse are the best.

    It all depends if you're looking for a single player or multiplayer game.
    As a single player game I agree with the comments above and would staty away from it, however, and this is the important bit, this game is fantastic as multiplayer.
    There is a huge community of players both here and in England.
    Even if you're only on 56K dialup, there's no problem in getting on to the English servers.

    A new addon has just been released for this game called Team Sabre, and the new Delta Force game Joint Operations will be launched in March.

    Have fun mate!!

    BHD is "pretty ok". Desert Storm 2 is a (bad) port of a bad PS2 game. One of the worst games I had the misfortune of installing (luckily I didnt buy it, it was an evaluation).

    i thought desert storm II was pretty decent. black hawk down is an insult imo.. not worth the time or effort.

    Desert Storm is awfull.

    Ive had manys the multiplayer game of BHD and found it enjoyable .

    Desert Combat Mod for BF1942 is excelent , the apache's are cool. We honestly haven't went back to the original game since getting the Mod .

    Americas Army is also one of my all time favorites. We've been playing the new Special Forces maps for the last few nights on our WAN.

    I don't have Desert Storm and never played it, but i do have BHD and it's ****ing brilliant, well i think so anyway!!:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,199 ✭✭✭krattapopov


    winters is right,

    the only option you have is to get bf1942 and then get the desert combat mod

    it really does piddle on bhd and desert storm

    but only if you plan to play online

    thank you please
