The reason I bought this game was the co-op play. Co-op is Wargames: Defcon 1 strongest suit, it's what's really terrific about it. It very open so you and you're friend can think up alot of tactics togehter, me and my friend were up all night playing this game together. When you really think about. there's not too many co-op video games out there today, and the few that are suck! So I highly recommend this game as a co-op game to play!

Not many games come along that are as good as this. Sure, your units, when you call them, get stuck but you have to keep in mind that this is a pretty early game. Using the WORP walkers is more fun than...anything! And calling a tatical air strike, wisly using your units to face up to the opposing force (sometimes that big tank can't always save you) and planning attacks WHILE BEING A GREAT ACTION GAME give this game the highest possible rating. I will buy this game again, and play it all over again. My advise is to use a medium armor truck (the useless on that carries a rurret is good) or a helecopter to check out the enimy base first, then move your units in for best planned attack. KEEP YOUR JEEP alive...an airstike can be called again and again, and it can save you when you need to take down an infested area with little force. PS- When you play it, think of it as you are just one man, either sent in by WORP or the army, and they give you these vehicals. Other than the aid and airstrikes, your own your own. NOW GO OUT THERE AND PROTEST FOR A SEQUEL!
I reccomend to all who have played this game to go out and rent or just plain see the movie Wargames. There is a lot of relation and seems like you are doing the work of the computer and the other guy(can't remember his name, sorry). I like this game for the reason being that it has a good multiplayer mode. You can not only be on opposing teams, but on each others teams. This is what most games lack, but this is one that has this feature. I find that this game must seem easy, but you have to admit that there are a few stages that you have died on a few times. Like the WOPR stage 10 I belive is rather difficult. You have to save 3 sattilites while they are all being attacked by several guys, and the only way to get there is by plane while they have anti aircraft missle's and such. I still belive this game is awsome.

War Games Defcon 1 is the ultimate game! ...I haven't gotten it yet. However, I play it at my neighbors house all of the time, and it sweet! You can be these giant robot things with missles and other weapons (like Mechwarrior things), or you can be the humans who have tanks, mini-bikes, nuclear bombs, planes, and moch more! I love this game....

When I first saw War Games in the store, I thought it would be a lame Command and Conquer rip-off. I was wrong. After borrowing it from a friend, I changed my mind, and now I own it. In War Games, you control a group of vehicles in each stage, and you can play as NORAD (human) or WOPR (robots). However, it's not like Command and Conquer or other strategy games where you select a unit, then choose an action. You actually have full control, sort of like an overhead-view, strategy based Twisted Metal with a whole lot of different vehicles. Check this one out.
