Monday lunchtime, I was in Game and made a spur-of-the-moment purchase: Eurofighter Typhoon.

It's cack, and I plan to take it back on Saturday. My question is, what do I get in its place?

A. Sudden Strike
B. Operation Flashpoint
C. My money back


I like isometric strategy games like C&C Red Alert 2 and Tiberian Sun - but how does Sudden Strike measure up?

I also like FPS games like Project IGI, Soldier of Fortune and co. How does Operation Flashpoint compare to these?

So, if anyone owns either of the two games, let me know what they're like. I've read a few reviews, but some personal experience and opinion would be nice.

I would say Operation Flashpoint but you need a pretty good Pc to run it. Sudden strike look good but I haven't played it.

Talking about that I haven't player Operation flashpoint either!

I do indeed, but...

a) I don't believe in piracy
b) Even if I did, why would I want to copy a game I can't stand?!
