Is it possible? Can a PS1 game beat all CPU competition for realism?

I think as far as WWII armored sims go the answer is yes! The game was a sleeper in the west known as Panzer Front for the Playstation.

The Japanese designer although quite limited in what he could produce managed to make a far more realistic WWII armored sim experiance then the PC has almost a decade later. Dont beleive me?

Features: Complete control of A.I. armor in your squad, You pick the route and send them flanking.

The ability to put your squad mates on the defensive.

Realistic penitration physics model and accurate representation of vehicles speed and x-country mobility.

Ricochet shots!

Playable tanks include: Most major tanks from WWII from Tigers,Elephants,Panthers,JagdPanthers,JagtTigers, Stug,Panzer III, Panzer IV, Nashhorn, T-34's, JS2,IS3, Sherman's, FIrefly's and most other Sherman variants, Tank destroyers and more!

All scenarios are taken from historically famous tank battles. You can play as Earnst Barkmann in his lone panther taking out swaths of allied armor after D-day in a historically correct map of the very town in France!

You can drive your tiger as Micheal Wittman in Villars Bocage!

And many many more!. Tired of playing these scenarios? Mix up the tanks!
Ever whonder what the outcome would be if Wittman had a Captured Russian T-34 instead, and were fighting nothing but Captured Panthers? a few clicks of your controller and you can find out?

Bored with that? Build your own missions! Load one of the many beautifull (For PS1 standards) maps and start editing who goes where and what the objectives will be.

Then they released Panzer Front Bis for the Playstation 2.

They focused on the battles in Afrika. They have fewer tanks but added an internal view. Now you can sit inside the tanks and look out the veiw ports or pop the top and get the commanders veiw! Play as the British, Germans or Italians and even man AT guns and feild artillery. Call in artillery or airstrikes!
