Inside Mac Games has posted a review of Aspyr Media's latest release: Company of Heroes Complete: Campaign Edition. The Campaign Edition includes the single player campaigns from the original Company of Heroes as well as the Tales of Valor and Opposing Fronts expansions.

Here's an excerpt:

Realistic physics also plays a part in battles. Most tanks can smash through walls and run over obstacles, creating new paths and flanking options. Bullets often go astray and rockets frequently miss creating a realistic sense of ballistics. Tank shells and grenades will do horrible things to infantry units, sending bodies and limbs flying through the air. Vehicles can get disabled or go out of control, wildly crashing into nearby troops or structures, whether they be friend or foe.

There's a lot to keep track of in any given moment. Heavy machine gun units can suppress enemy infantry with a hail of bullets, causing them to be pinned down and crawl for cover. Incendiary mortars and flamethrowers can burn out entrenched buildings. Engineers can set up all manner of tank traps, mines, barbed wire, sand bags, MG emplacements and base structures. Anti-tank guns can load armor piercing rounds for increased effectiveness. You need to be constantly defending and taking new sectors or fall behind.
