    If your looking for multiplayer go with Day of Defeat source

    Well, there's not a shortage of them. WW2 gaming has been going on longer than the actual World War 2. There is something wrong with that. Anyway, I actually recommend the original Call Of Duty, storming Omaha beach is always fun.

    I don't believe the Omaha beach invasion was in Call of Duty. I reckon you are thinking of Medal of Honour: Allied Assault.

    Go for MOH:AA OP, excellent game - although it is only on PC. Call of Duty World at War and Call of Duty 2 would be your best alternatives.

    Frontlines is okay, actually I cant remember if thats WW2 but those would be two I'd go with apart from CODs

    Yeah I recommend getting that. I know you might think €15 is a bit steep for such an old game, but I think the achievements and HD is worth the extra money.

    BF1943 is easily the best WW2 game available, the gameplay is endless, hours of fun for hardly a dent in the wallet!
