In the Hour of Victory three characters entrenched on the battlefields of WWII must use their unique skills to make it through each level alive. Playing as Major Ambrose Taggert, gamers may sneak up on enemies and dispatch them with the sharp edge of a blade. Lieutenant William Ross is more inclined to run in guns first and shoot anything that moves. Finally, Sergeant Calvin Blackbull delivers the killing blow with a sniper rifle from a safe distance.
These three soldiers are the tools players use to complete each mission in the game. Their skills are all useful and each obstacle will require the use of at least one if not all three avatars. Designed to include all the details and realisms of WWII, gamers must navigate each landscape while planes, tanks, and infantry wage war around them. When not on foot the trio may commandeer any vehicle on the battlefield and ride through danger on a Sherman Tank, a Kubelwagon, or Axis Tiger Tank. Online, gamers may go to war with friends by connecting to Xbox Live.

from Connecticut Hour Of Victory falls extremely short of expectations
I had a gut feeling not to buy this game, but to wait for reviews of it first. I should have listened to my gut! The levels are EXTREMELY short. I mean, I was beating the levels on hard in under 30 min. Sometimes 10 min.! The game music CAN'T be turned off, so you have to deal with the horrible music throughout the game. The sound effects are ok, but do lack. Especially when you are in the tank, and there's hardly any sound. The graphics are ok, but nothing to oh and ah over. And that's being nice. The enemies will sometimes spawn behind you. And no matter how hard you're hiding, they will always find you. I guess I'm giving this game 1 star because the weapons look really good. That's about the only plus for this game. My advice - wait a little longer for a better game. Don't be like me and waste $55!
