At the time of this writing, Battlefield 1942 is not available digitally and physical copies of the game are few and far between. Then, by the time I went looking for it, it was nearly impossible to get ahold of. But, it’s just one of those situations where I never managed to get my hands on a copy while the game was still in its prime. I know, saying that sounds like gamer blasphemy. However, despite its reputation, I’ve never actually taken the time to play it until now. It took an already established genre and enhanced it in ways that seemed almost impossible at the time (more on this later). So, when deciding what to play for this review, I looked to one of the most heralded FPS games of all time Battlefield 1942.īattlefield 1942 is considered by many to be one of the greatest multiplayer FPS games ever made. Well, doing so only managed to rekindle my passion for the genre. In fact, it wasn’t until my review of Halo, last year, that I finally managed to sit down and play a real FPS again.

But, as I tend to do, I got sidetracked by special projects. Several years ago, I went on a kick where I reviewed a number of classic 90’s-era FPS games.

This may surprise many of you, but I love first person shooters just as much. It’s no secret that RPGs are one of my biggest gaming passions. I started this website nine years ago and over the course of that time I’ve discussed a lot of games. This is a review that I’ve been wanting to write for a long time.
