Gary Grigsby's World at War

I paid $39.95 for it,6 months later it was selling for $3.50,that game stunk.


We didn't need your comments about Gary Grigsby's World at War stinking You took it off topic troll. As you do this quite often.

Others in this thread have said the same thing about WaW.Why are you not attacking them?Why does it bother you so much my opinion is different than yours?I hate to break it to you kid,but not everyone in the world has the same opinions,someday when you grow up you might realize that.Now im not interested in starting a "flame war' with you or anyone else and I will not respond to anymore of your immature,imbecile posts attacking me.Have a good day!!!Keep harassing me and i will report you to a moderator.Im installing CotA now,so dont bother me.

Yay for the rest of us.

I apologise. (no drink involved here...just plain old stupidity )

Maybe I should let you guys decide what my favorite game is.

But seriously, I like World at War and if it offends anyone, I really don't care. You don't see me taking shots at War in the Pacific. I tried it and it's not for me but I respect the fact that other players like it.

The problem with this forum is if anyone dares to say they dont like a Matrix title(which they have every right to as a paying customer) they are accused of being trolls or insulted in some way.Back to topic my vote for best Matrix game would be CotA. I am working through the tutorial,so far the best Matrix WW2 game IMO.

I will vote for the close combat series,as for grand stategy i would say none as all of them are too simplistic and quite lame made mostly for children or mentally challenged adults.


Actually why don't we start from the very beginning of the thread his very first post into it.

Nothing more childish and immature than that post bairdlander. You called everyone who plays any grand strategy other than your precious HOI series childish and mentally challenged adults. Pretty trolly to me.

Somehow, I doubt it!

Wasn't there one absolute turkey, though, in the very early days (before I even signed up here, I think)? Can't remember what it was called. I think even the Matrix staff just like to pretend it never happened. Or maybe I'm thinking of somebody else?

Are you talking about 10 years ago?  I can’t quite remember, at least not if it was a WW2 game.  

Speaking of worst WW2 games from Matrix, a quick google-search shows up Operation Barbarossa.  This is due of course, to Giftzerg’s continuous rants about the game.  That guy just seems to have all the worst luck in the world.  It’s bad enough he cant’ get his graphics settings right, then it’s worse he couldn’t get past the tutorial, and worse yet he couldn’t figure out how to do a simple paradrop.

Maybe there really were some conflicts with his PC, but oddly enough, the issues didn’t stop there.  
For example, on the one hand he’ll rave how great Panzer General II was, and then he’ll rant about how bad OB is for copying PG2 elements???

And then there were some statements that while partially true, seem to go too far.  For example, according to his logic, OB is a broken game because if you end up waiting too long to capture a final victory hex, you lose the campaign and the game is over.  Yes, the game is definitely broken here, as according to HIS logic, if the Germans had waited a day later before finally crushing Poland (in real life), that this would have had no effect on the outcome of their Polish campaign.  So hence, the game is clearly broken.

BTW, if one enjoys reading many colorful adjectives and adverbs from one in a rant, then perhaps reading some of his posts could increase your ‘slang’ vocabulary.  :P
