Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
There's easily a good 15-20 hours of gameplay here, if you play on the hard difficulty to complete all 8 campaigns, and though there's some uneven difficulty spikes, it all leads up to and culminates in a great final campaign and great final mission in particular, which probably took me over an hour in itself as I kept dying to the relentless AI.
