Jagged Alliance 2 (1999 Video Game)
After 20 years of gaming, I have finally found true love.
9 May 2000
This is, without reservation, the finest computer game to date. Non-linear, full of personality, and ready for anything you might think of to do, Jagged Alliance 2 really satisfies the gaming hunger.

The premise of JA2 is the conquering of a small nation, sector by sector, with the intention of restoring the rightful ruler to power. The deposed ruler hires you, a mercenary, to do the job. Your mission entails recruiting additional mercs, managing resources, and interacting with multiple NPC's.

The level of detail includes over 10,000 spoken lines of dialogue, individual personalities for each merc (some get along well - some hate each other), many various items of ordinance (LAWS, grenades, rifles, SMG's, LMG's, explosives, TNT, detonators, shotguns, mortars, pistols, and most types of ammunition), and a realistic physics engine for them to play with.

I am hoping that things will get even better with the up coming JA:UB and JA3. The JA series is tried and true and each one is better than the last. Great job, Sir-tech.
