Given a choice between the two top contenders in the World War II genre, I would have to choose Desert Rats over War Times. War Times is a fun, playable and respectable effort at capturing the feel of World War II combat, but its magnificent cutscenes and (initially) superb soundtrack end up promising an experience that the blocky graphics, uninspired landscapes and poor sound effects can't make good on. Fans of WWII real time strategy games will ultimately enjoy the experience War Times offers, but casual RTS players should probably try before they buy.
