SynopsisImagine the horrifying consequences if the Third Reich had won World War II. America would be under Nazi control, and the freedoms and joys we take for granted would now be gone. This terrible scenario is the premise of Turning Point: Fall of Liberty, a thrilling first-person shooter loaded with intensity. With the Nazis taking over such cities as New York and Washington DC, only a homegrown insurgency can overthrow the Nazis. Will you join the resistance?Fall of Liberty thrusts you into an action-driven storyline where you must make a difference as an American hero. Authentic wartime combat with a fresh perspective makes the war personal and relevant. You'll have to use guerrilla tactics to outflank superior enemy forces and take advantage of a unique grappling system that features environmental kills, quick kills and human shields. Online gameplay includes Deathmatch and Team Deathmatch modes with options to play as either Americans or Germans.

Felt Like A PS2 Game
on March 12, 2008

This game feels incredibly outdated already. As many have pointed out in the reviews, Turning Point looks and plays like a PS2 game - the graphics are very 2001 and, to make matters worse, the game often pauses to load graphics scenes. I can understand that if the graphics are crazy good, but they look like they were designed for previous generation gaming consoles. Far too few weapons are available throughout the game and you often spend pointless minutes climbing up a ladder, hanging from some ledge and things of that nature - none of these things adds anything of value to the gameplay. Spend your money on something else.
What's great about it: Ok storyline
What's not so great: choppy graphics, long load times
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

David Simon's masterful social commentary went back to school, quite literally, in the fourth season, which focuses on Baltimore's crumbling education system. A relevant link to its first three seasons is supplied by Roland "Prez" Pryzbylewski (Jim True-Frost), who left the police department to become a teacher at Edward Tilghman Middle School, a hardscrabble institution on life support that services a low-income, drug-infested neighborhood. (Incidentally, Prez's career path is similar to one of the series' producers, Ed Burns). His eighth-grade math class includes a close-knit quartet of friends -- Randy Wagstaff (Maestro Harrell), Michael Lee (Tristan Wilds), Duquan "Dukie" Weems (Jermaine Crawford) and Namond Brice (Julito McCullum). The wisecracking Brice is ignominiously selected to be part of a university experiment studying at-risk kids, which counts a former police commander, Bunny Colvin (Robert Wisdom), as a consultant. Out on the corners, Marlo Stanfield (Jamie Hector) strengthens his grip on the city's West Side narcotics trade once dominated by the Barksdale gang, and with his cold-blooded lieutenants, Chris (Gbenga Akinnagbe) and Snoop (Felicia Pearson), devises an ingenious method to hide the collateral damage of his ascent from the law. This sleight-of-hand bedevils detectives Freamon (Clarke Peters), Greggs (Sonja Sohn) and Bunk (Wendell Pierce). The trio are flummoxed by the lack of victims that would surely coincide with Marlo's ever-widening domain, a savage power grab that also threatens the relative peace of the New Day Co-Op under East Side pooh-bah Proposition Joe (Robert F. Chew). Meanwhile, the Democratic primary in the city's mayoral campaign pits the entrenched African-American incumbent, Clarence Royce (Glynn Turman), against Councilman Tommy Carcetti (Aidan Gillen), a scrappy politico with a savvy campaign manager in Norman Wilson (Reg E. Cathey), but a long shot to become Charm City's first white chief executive in years.

Simply the best TV show ever made

Have you ever sat back at the end of an incredible movie and couldn't even talk for a bit because you had to think about what you'd just seen? That's exactly how you'll feel at the end of every season of The Wire. Individual episodes are all brilliant, but it's at the end of each season, when you've had a chance to reflect on how all of the interwoven story lines came together, that you truly appreciate this show. Simply the best TV show ever made.
