"Shock Force is immersive and even the most grizzled grognard will find
their adrenaline starting to pump when their troops are in the middle of an
intense fire-fight. The graphics and sound are excellent. Armored vehicles
are highly detailed and move around the field with believable physics. The
ground even shakes a bit as a tank rumbles by the camera. Tracers light up a
beautifully rendered evening sky, and ricochet against armored vehicles with
an unnerving metal on metal sound. Doors and hatches open and smoke pops as
infantry fighting vehicles dismount their crew. If the player zooms the
camera, they can even see detailed vehicle interiors. The ground troops look
great as well, and they move almost like real humans. The graphics are not
the best ever seen on the computer screen, but for a wargame, they are
fantastic."
"In the final evaluation, Combat Mission Shock Force is a highly recommended
wargame. Its detailed 3D depiction of modern company level combat has no
peer. Gamers with an interest in tactical ground combat will find this game
to be a must have."
