I believe you've got all three, so I'll ask ahead. Which out of the 3 should I get?

Medal of Honour Allied Assault
Return to Castle Wolfenstein or
WarCraft 3

They're all for Mac, so that just about limited my options, apart from Black and White, The Sims or SimCity 3000. But, I think the above are far more likely options. I'm thinking the top 2, but you're fantastic "review" on WarCraft 3 has made me think again.

I would go for wolfenstein, i just completed it a week or so ago and its brilliant. The multiplayer mode is good as well, its more about thinking and team work than running about shooting like a loon.

Ah, thanks for the swift reply. I forgot to mention, and didn't make it clear, that I was gonna get two out of the 3. Oops.

I'm a massive fan of games like WarCraft, with Red Alert 2 keeping me occupied for 3 months, and Age of Empires doing the same. I've just never given WarCraft a go before. Medal of Honour looks fantastic, and the original on the PS rocked, and that was just the beginning of an epic. Wolfenstein was my childhood game, along with Doom. Great fun, even if you could see each pixel, as it was 4cmx4cm across your 12" screen.

Oh, and I'll be playing these at i12, so ermmmmm I dunno. Decisions, decisions. Medal of Honour seems a pretty safe bet, then so does Castle Wolf, but I just know I'll make the wrong choice.

You're excused.

Morning
*Scratches head and lights his 1st smoke of the day*

That's not an easy choice mate.
Well, it is between Wolfenstein & Medal of Honour - Medal of Honour.
I thought (and still do) that Wolfenstein is a top FPS, but it just doesn't compare to MOH:AA.

As for between Warcraft III & MOH:AA?
Damn.

Depends on your preferences I think.
Usually I'm not that fussed with RTS games and I hate pixies and elves and stuff.
And I loathe spending ages gathering resources.
Yet somehow Warcraft III gets it right, a balance betweem rush 'em to kill games and tactics.

*scratches head again*
If you want an immersive WWII game with fantastic set-pieces, atmosphere, tension and excitement - Get MOH:AA.
If you want to smash the faces of Elves and make their queen do your bidding and smite their fairy homes - get Warcraft III.

Both excellent games.
Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to sit in the garden and smoke.
