Latest in line with praise for <a href="http://www.nival.com" target=_blank>Nival's</a> excellent <a href="http://www.silentstorm-online.de" target=_blank>Silent Storm</a> is <a href="http://www.avault.com" target=_blank>Adrenaline Vault</a>, where it scores 4.5 out of 5 stars. Graphics and gameplay are mentioned as it's strong parts, with a little less praise for music and ai (which can be either <i>really</i> good or <i>really</i> bad according to the reviewer). The introduction to the <a href="http://www.avault.com/reviews/review_temp.asp?game=silstrm&page=1" target=_blank>review</a> is particularly funny:
<br>
<br>
<blockquote>
<br>
Remember the Macarena? How about wearing a single sequined glove? Or “What’cho talkin’ ‘bout, Willis?†The gritty settings of World War II in video games have gone the direction of Tickle Me Elmo and Vanilla Ice, and there’s nothing anyone can do to change that. Yet more titles continue to hit the market with Nazis in their sights. There’s a lot of carping about this, but every once and a while somebody brings out a hands down winner like Call of Duty that makes you forget you ever had a problem with the time period. Pulling out the tried and true backdrop of the Second World War, Nival Interactive brings us Silent Storm.

The review in whole sounds reasonable and the reviewer has obviously done his homework purdy dilligently and enjoyed it quite a bit - worth a read for those of you that might still be undecided on <a href="http://www.silentstorm-online.de" target=_blank>Silent Storm</a>. As if there were ANYONE who was by now? Hah.

But this is a shining example of why I love Avault so much. Most of the guys there actually do their homework when it comes to a certain game before reviewing it. I wish more sites did that.
