Battlefield 1942: The Complete Collection is the ultimate FPS experience. Included are all three Battlefield expansion packs in addition to the original: Battlefield 1942, Battlefield Vietnam, Secret Weapons over Normandy, and Battlefield 1942: The Road to Rome. From the beaches of Normandy to the rock n' roll of Vietnam, every mission is available for a quick attack or an overnight multiplayer marathon. In Battlefield 1942, you're a WWII soldier on a true-to-life battlefield, equipped with weapons that look and sound authentic, able to storm the beaches on foot or seamlessly jump into and out of any of 35 vehicles of war. The depth is incredible. While on foot, you play as one of five specialized classes (assault, medic, scout, antitank, or engineer) with varying equipment and abilities. The choice of vehicles ranges from a selection of tanks, jeeps, and other fairly standard mechanized land vehicles to exotic craft like battleships, submarines, and dive bombers. Best of all, you can pit yourself against your fellow man in objective-based online battles in four distinct WWII theaters of war: North Africa, South Asia Pacific, Western Europe, and Eastern Europe. This is everything that World War II Online should have been. This is Tribes 2 with better code, graphics, control--everything, and without the cheesy sci-fi trappings. This out-WWIIs Medal of Honor and Return to Castle Wolfenstein. This game is like the ultimate sandbox, with all the best toys. Battlefield Vietnam: The Battlefield franchise enters a new era equipped with more firepower, modernized weaponry and vehicles, and a deeper infantry experience from the jungles to the beaches of Vietnam. From villages on the Ho Chi Minh Trail to the city streets of Hue wage modern warfare as the United States or North Vietnamese Army (NVA). Secret Weapons over Normandy: Join a secret squad of pilots dedicated to thwarting the most heinous plans of the Third Reich. Fly over 20 authentic aircraft across 30 daring missions in this new WWII action-flyer. Lawrence Holland, the legendary creator of Star Wars X-Wing, Star Wars Tie Fighter, and Secret Weapons of the Luftwaffe returns with an exhilarating new game of action and intrigue. Can you be trusted with the most dangerous secrets of the war? Battlefield 1942: The Road to Rome: Battlefield 1942: The Road to Rome is a multiplayer-focused expansion pack for more exciting WWI combat action. You'll battle in the Italian and Sicilian campaigns of the war, on six new maps and real world missions like Operation Husky (Sicily) and the battles for Anzio and Monte Cassino. Use 8 new vehicles including the German BF-110 and British Mosquito fighter bombers to lead two new fighting forces - The French Legionnaires and Italian forces. You can even work with 3 new weapons - A rifle grenade launcher, the British Sten SMG and bayonets!

Best *MULTIPLAYER* ww2 game I've ever played January 15, 2007 Col Kev (Texas, USA) 10 out of 11 found this review helpful
This is IT for MULTIPLAYER ww2 FPS gaming. BF1942 is NOT, nor was it ever intended to be, a single player game (nor was bfVietnam). I prefer the ww2 genre to the modern stuff, so perhaps that's why I still like good old bf1942 and bfVietnam over bf2, halo, etc... The graphics are great, there are still several servers to play on, the official sites along w/patches are still there, and the gameplay is just amazing. Accuracy depends on whether you're moving or not and you have to learn how much lead is required for the distance to your target (just like in most other FPS that don't have the stupid auto-locking type of aim). Only new players complain they can't hit anything while getting one-shotted. But that's not fair because it's the same w/every FPS game till you learn the mechanics of that game. What's so fun is both the capture-the-flag(spawn point) gameplay and, most of all, the fact that every vehicle (ship, plane, tank, gun emplacement, you name it) is usable by YOU. No stationary or pre-defined pathing type vehicles. No eye-candy-only tanks, jeeps, planes - they are are all useable by you - and you've been trained in ALL of them (lol). Lots of extras in the game like the function key voice system (that types a message in chat but simultaneously plays the voice over your speakers - in the native tongue of your team (Russian, Japanese, German, Vietnamese, English w/a British accent, etc...). I don't play video games near as often as I used to, but when I do, I still reach for my bf1942 CD's 9 times out of 10. For ww2 multiplayer FPS games, this is the only choice imo. For single player only I don't know what to say - I hate single player FPS scenarios. After playing 16 v 16 (or more depending on the server) real live players, I just can't enjoy single player FPS games anymore.
Best Collection Ever April 21, 2006 stormtrooper7777 11 out of 14 found this review helpful
This game is the best collection ever! You get the 2002 game of the year battlefield 1942, and it's two great expansions,Battlefield 1942, The Road to Rome, And Battlefield 1942, Secret Weapons of WWII. And you also get Battlefield Vietnam, which is my favorite, where you can drive and fly vehicles,from the Vietnam era, while listening to music from the Vietnam era. These games never get boring, so they're guaranteed to stay fun for a long time. If you like FPS's, and the ability to drive and fly war vehicles, then this is the game for you.
Simply awesome! January 27, 2008 C. Boch (Cleveland, Ohio) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Winner of "Game of the Year" when it came out this is still a thrilling and well made first person shooter with a twist. You are a soldier in WWII and must seize and hold bases to win each battle. Less interesting is the buggy "Battlefield Vietnam" included here for free (which is still too expensive). Ignore it and focus on BF1942 which is fun in single play and even better in multiplay.
Can't stop playing! February 23, 2006 S. Atkins, II (Greenville, NC) 8 out of 12 found this review helpful
I purchased the original BF1942 and after playing for a while, I new I had to have more so I bought the complete collection and ever since I have not been able to stop playing. This game offers great missions and scenarios. I love the ablility to drive and use all types of vehicles and weapons. And the multiplayer experience is great! There is only one minor issues I have with BF1942, 1) the expansion packs do not automatically rollover to the next mission after completing the previous mission like in the original BF1942. Buy this game and I'm sure you will love it.
Battlefield 1942 The Complete Collection August 14, 2006 John Tolentino (Australia) 4 out of 6 found this review helpful
This is definitely an excellent collection which has provided many long hours of fun for my guild members and I. I would highly recommend this boxed set for anyone who enjoys playing cooperative, multi-player, first person shooter action games. The varied array of weapons, vehicles, terrain and missions will keep you and your friends coming back for more. I give this one an overall rating of 5/5!
