passé votre chemin, l'interface est pas mal dans le menu et a chier ne fois en partie, c'est simple on ne voit absolument rien
it doesn't work. don't buy it. fluck you MS.
两个问题： 1、分辨率不能调整，需要手动调桌面分辨率。 2、扩展包战役纯折磨，毫无意义。
It is a 20+ yrs old game, you keep releasing again and again and still costs more than most indie games. And as it turns out this version does not work LAN only setting either way. Greed ++
