Gamer's Pulse review of Commandos 2:

"96% - Commandos 2 is a very demanding game. Time-consuming, and difficult, the game requires a lot of time, and patience. Sometimes the objectives seem impossible, but the game was designed to have you think about different possibilities of winning the game. The games graphics, sound, and gameplay is the best to date. The game is extremely authentic, and makes you feel like you're in a WW2 movie. When I was plying a mission, with my Commandos rushing a beach... I felt like Tom Hanks in Saving Private Ryan. So if you are a gamer with a lot of time, A LOT OF TIME, on your hands Commandos 2 is the best game to date, featuring all the elements in a good Action/Strategy game."

One nice thing about the Google toolbar is you can type a word or phrase into the box and hit Highlight, and all of those terms will be, well, highlighted on the page.

So I typed "game" and hit "highlight". Then I copy and pasted it into Word for a count.

7 out of 122 words in that clip were "game". One was "games" (apostrophes are unfair to some and whatnot), and one was "gameplay", making 9.

My favorite clip:

Time-consuming, and difficult, the game requires a lot of time, and patience.

I cannot stop laughing at this one. Does that make me evil?

Not until you e-mail the author a link to this discussion. Chet, you want to get started on that, or should I?

They give us a bad rap too. The wraps aren't actually that bad.
