I loved this game on my PC. When I switched over to a MAC I bought the MAC version……which doesn’t work at al!!!! And the manufacturer doesn’t respond or answer any questions. A complete rip off. Save your cash, buy something else from somebody else.

Many have panned this game. Probably from the perspective of the more complex and expensive sports meeting like Quake and Unreal. But I find that I can start up Beachhead and be blowing up stuff in just a few seconds, play for as long or small as I want and pop right out. Other, ‘better’ sports meeting such as Descent seem to require a huge commitment of time to get set up and running (and keeping them running). I like it and have friends who have really gotten into beachhead 2000, even getting up to level 50-something, So it does work for some people and for some moods.

I find once you get above level 60 or so the game is virtually unplayable. But getting there was a fun, albeit small, few days. I found a few bugs in the product but not anything earthshattering and they have patches on the website already to fix the issues.
I got it on sale, so I felt I did get my cash’s worth.

Based on a unadorned design and premise, it takes seconds to start. From your pillbox on the beach you fend off wave after wave of increasingly powerful attacks. First, the landing boats. Tanks and landing craft. Helicopters and jets. Bombers. They keep coming.
Efffective retrieving of first aid and ammunition (bullets only, no missles) in the middle of the wave will extend your life. The reward for flourishing ammunition and battlefield management is to clear out the contemporary wave, fully reload, breathe for a second, and take on the next wave. Bunched up landing troops are simple targets. A well-positioned anti-tank shell destroys an entire landing craft, some of which include tanks and personnel carriers. Missles work well against jets, but need to be aimed with some accuracy. In a pinch, helicopters and jets can be machine-gunned into a flaming crash. With a small trial-and-error, I was up to level 14 pretty quickly. And you can save your work at each level and not have to start from scratch each time you return. Admittedly, it then became a bit mind-numbing and I have since set the game aside.
The graphics are quite clear. The carnage is evident (blood splatters, bodies glide owing to the air) but not especially graphic and not at all stomach churning. The game works best as a way to let off steam and to test your focus on the very demanding task at hand.
