Way back GS actually provided thorough (as thorough as you could expect from a gamemag) multi-page Simulation pre- and reviews. Falcon4 was praised for "exceptional realism" and got 92%. F4AF didn't fair that bad either, being awarded 85%. Times have changed. Coincidentally the reviewer of F4 was Mick Schnelle, same guy who reviewed SH5 on http://www.gamersglobal.de/test/silent-hunter-5 . Joerg Langers, founder of Gamestar, is now chief editor of Gamersglobal.

PCzone gave Operation Flashpoint 2 a 9/10 scoring. Some people will know how this turned out, the game is basically abandonware now.
