Shall I upgrade?

[PoorOldSpike]

I come from the "old school" of gamers... and I really like the CS game system. I know what we gamers had before and what is available today. I guess I look beyond any shiny "chrome" of graphics and just appreciate the game "engine." :cool:

Me too mate, but in real life units attack and move in waves and columns whereas in CS they do it individually which jars a bit.
I abandoned Steel Panthers for the same reason.
As for graphics, if we're going to spend hours staring at a screen they should at least be easy on the eye. Pity there's not one more zoom-in level with CS so we can really get down there among the weeds with the troops.
Incidentally I went back to delete my earlier critical post but it was too late, somebody had already picked up on it and quoted it.
By the way, I've told Matrix I won't be requesting any more free review copies from them or any other company as I simply don't have the time any more to do reviews.
My sensational PC:Kharkov review will therefore stand as a memorial to my awesome reviewing skills, here-
