I'm looking for a good world war I game. Do you guys have any suggestions?
Don't think there are any, but 'the Darkness' has a great twist on it that will haunt you for a while.
You really don't want to be there

World War one by paradox interactive is a good game. Though my experience with it is limited to played for a couple hours on a friends laptop.
If you are looking for a game with the whole allies pulling allies into war type of diplomacy. Then Armada 2556 is a good game, though it is space age.
A ww1 mod is being released for men of war, and I say its looking interesting.
There was a game that came out a little while ago based around time travel that had WW1 parts to it.
If i find anymore believe me i will let you know, im always looking for a good ww1 game.
I'm not aware of any pure WW1 games except flight simulators and maybe some niche strategy games. All the other games that "have WW1" either mix it with a lot of futuristic/fantasy elements or it's just one "age" of some strategy game. :shrug:

Good luck...
Two come to mind. Darkest of Days, which is one of the best games ever made, and then Commander: The Great War (http://www.thelordzgamesstudio.com/site/games/commander-the-great-war/), which is made by a team of developers who used to be R:TW modders. I have not played C:TGW, as it has not come out yet, but it looks awesome and I think that it will be released soon.

There was a mod in the works for Il-2 that never got released called Canvas Knights, last update was in june about an uncertain future.
Well, for a flight sim, I haven't played it but I'd think Rise of flight (http://riseofflight.com/en) would be the one to go for. They also sell additional planes on their website for quite hefty prices, so I'd expect a certain quality.

Good luck...
Thanks... I wonder why it is so difficult to find a good WW I game.
Anyways, thanks for your help!

There is a 360 Indie game called Toy Soldiers (http://marketplace.xbox.com/en-US/Product/Toy-Soldiers/66acd000-77fe-1000-9115-d8025841099e) as the name implies, you control toy tanks, planes, etc. Since they are toys, it has a little fantasy to it but it's quite fun to play.
The Lordz Studio has come up with some awesome games as of late, I just hope one day they release a WWI game, their WWII games looks great.

There's this Half Life 2 FPS mod: http://www.ww1-source.net/
Apparently an early version has already been released.
