	Conflict: Desert Storm Review for PC at GamingExcellence
		Conflict: Desert Storm is their first major title, published for both the PC and next generation consoles.
		Desert Storm introduces an element similar to that found in the Rainbow Six series, the ability to control your team through a series of keyboard based shortcut's, issuing commands to them as the game progresses.
		The problems with Desert Storm begin right at the beginning, a clunky slow user interface similar to that of what one would expect for a console version, as no mouse support is included.

	Tribute to Desert Storm Vets (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		The task of the Air Force in Operaton Desert Storm was to obtain air superior ity, provide air support for the ground troops, strike enemy targets in Kuwait and Iraq, and airlift Army and Marine forces.
		When Operation Desert Storm was launched, it was the Air Force that conducted most of the raids against the Iraqi military.
		Desert Storm marked the first time in history that an air force had defeated an enemy before a ground war was launched.

		Thus in Desert Storm Trading Cards war first is removed from historical and social context, then transformed into aesthetically appealing images; weapons are severed from concerns about the social consequences of military spending and from questions about the legitimacy of the cold-war, of U.S. imperialism, and of U.S. arms exports.
		Also, by limiting discussion of soldiers to general and non-lethal military conventions, Desert Storm Trading Cards obscure the terror, suffering, and killing that are the defining characteristics of warfare.
		Thus, although initially Desert Storm Trading Cards and media representations of the Persian Gulf War seem vastly different--the one a childish novelty, the other the attempts by journalists to report the truth about a brutal war--they have much in common.

	Conflict Desert Storm II: Back to Baghdad - GameCube (GC) Reviews - The Armchair Empire
		Rainbow Six 3 notwithstanding, Conflict Desert Storm II: Back to Baghdad (CDS2) is likely the most fun squad based action game based on a Special Forces unit that you will play on the GameCube.
		When I first saw the title of the game, I was very skeptical and I wanted to disregard the game because I thought the gameplay would be a simplistic attempt to cash in on the patriotic side of American gamers.
		However, after playing the game extensively, I’ve found that Conflict Desert Storm II: Back to Baghdad is enjoyable, addictive and satisfying to play.

	Review - Conflict: Desert Storm // PC /// Eurogamer
		Despite its very obvious shortcomings in the visuals department, Desert Storm still manages to draw you into the combat wonderfully.
		Conflict: Desert Storm is an impressive effort from Pivotal.
		If the engine had more spit and polish to raise the realism bar higher, then we'd be close to a title that could become a firm favourite with the tactical action clique.

	Featuring Conflict: Desert Storm Review at ActionTrip
		For those of you who are not in the know, Conflict: Desert Storm puts you in the role of a member of one of the elite Special Forces units (US Delta Force, or the British SAS), assigned to carry out pre-emptive strikes and covert ops against the invading Iraqi army marching into Kuwait.
		Apart from this, Desert Storm resembles “Ghost Recon” in many ways — both games are team-based military shooters with the focus on their respective elite army units.
		The action mostly focuses on the outdoor (desert) missions, which is not surprising given the location where Desert Storm takes place.

		Many critics were surprised by the success of Conflict Desert Storm last season; commonly described as having “inferior” graphics and gameplay to the two more popular squad based console shooters SOCOM and Ghost Recon, CDS sold like hotcakes in spite of the lukewarm critical assessments.
		For the most part, we thought Conflict Desert Storm was a solid title last year.
		And all the gamers who enjoyed this system the first time around should enjoy the second title, as it is more or less the same game.
