    Hello!

    About a month ago I found a very cool game called 'Soldat'. Soldat means 'soldier' in many different languages. Anyways... Soldat is a game which I have been playing for hours each day. It's such a good game and I can really recommend it to all of you.
    It's just like counter-strike but this game is viewed from the side just as Super Mario. The bad graphics is what makes this game so good because it gives you a certain feeling when playing. You don't need great graphics when playing a game.

    Soldat is free to play and you can play online against other players from all over the world. It's only 15 Mb so it wont take you long to download it. After you installed the game change some settings and such things and choose a server to play. There are many different types of servers but my favorite one is 'Capture the Flag'.
    You will most likely not like the game from the very beginning but when you are used to the game and the controls you will love it! It's so addicting and so much fun. Visit www.soldat.pl for more information.
    We could even start our own server called "Notebook Server" or something like that and we could play against other members. :D

    So tell me what you think about the game. And I beg you... play it for an hour or two before you share your opinion in this thread. Give the game some time and I'm pretty certain you will like it!

    i heard about it. I downloaded it long ago but never tried it. Might finally give it a go ;-)

    Also, Vinyard i'm pretty surprised your gpu can handle such a demanding game :D

    Soldat is soldier in French, don't know about other languages.

    after playing it for a while, it is a fun game.

    But then a few hours later, it gets old IMO.
    @Vinyard, are you still playing it?

    I played it ages ago, then started to do so again a couple of months back. It's only really good for 15 minutes of fun... kills your spare time.

    Other than that, the only variation it can provide is through the multiplayer mode online.
