However, the new Conflict is quite an improvement over the extremely shaky first game.Ĭonflict: Desert Storm II again places you in the thick of the 1991 campaign against Saddam Hussein's regime.

Scarcely a year later, we're receiving a direct sequel titled Conflict: Desert Storm II. Its current-events context notwithstanding, the first Conflict just wasn't very good. As you'd gather from the name, the game was set in the Middle East during the early 1990s' Operation: Desert Storm-the famed military action against Saddam Hussein's invasion of Kuwait. Last year's Conflict: Desert Storm gave players squad-based tactical action with a tie-in to modern military history.
