Customer Reviews of Beach Head 2000

Interesting concept, but poorly implemented
Beach Head 2000 puts you in the role of defending a beach head against an onslaught of unidentified enemies, both on foot, land and water. It's an interesting concept...I can't think of any other game quite like it. The box is very appealing and even coxed me into buying the product, even though I was well aware of Wizard Work's shaky reputation. The graphics on the back of the box are not the same as on the game. The scenery is very pixelated and dull. In general, the grpahics are very early 90's in style. The gun turrent you operate can be manipulated via keyboard, mouse or joystick. The mouse control is terrible, and there is no real way to control it. One move too quick and the whole turrent spins around. I spent more time trying to line the gun up right than I did shooting. The keyboard commands seem to stiff and non-responsive. The gameplay is very monotonous, with a constant wave of troops lands on the beach. Higher levels include helicopters and jets, but they are equally unimpressive and monotonous. The game does have a save feature, which is handy. I will give them credit for that. I gave the game two stars because it is an interesting concept, but poorly implemented. I bought the game hoping it would be a quick fix for the times I want to just blow up everything. But you'll spend more time trying to master the controls than enjoying the gameplay. With a little more work, this could have been a great game. But like the game itself, that is the most frustrating part.

One Fantastic Game
This is a fantastic game with increasingly difficult levels. It is not a simple shoot em up game but is one that takes strategy and thinking. Unlike Allied Assault or Return to Wolfenstein, one does not have to play and play and play to finally win against the computer. Thus the one thing that is positive is the controls are easily learned. There may be those who think they have to have a game in which one has to go find a "banana" or some "blue key" for it to be a good game and that is ok, but when you want something that will relieve stress rather than build stress such is the game as Beach Head 2000. The Graphics are great sure they don't change but alas the title Beach Head 2000. It is truly you against the computer and a game you can win but come back to later and lose against. It is a fun game that one can well have fun with. Well done!!!!!

Beach Head (And the point of this game is...)
There is absolutley no point to this game! Alls you do is man guns on a beach and shoot at endless numbers of enemies! BORING! The game is very repetetive and boring. There are only 3 guns: 2 machine gun like things, a big cannon (which only has like 3 rounds of ammo each new level), and a stupid pistol with 7 rounds, and no extra clip to reload. The graphics are cartoony as well as the violence. There is blood, but not enough. This game was rushed to the market. It could have been alot better. Personally, i dont like this game. It has no story line, bad graphics, and only 3 weapons. This is a good game for people who like to play mindless shooters. If you want a game with a good story line like Red Faction or Half-Life, dont look here. Also, dont buy the sequal to this game, Beach head 2002, because it [stinks] just as much. -Patrick
