Okay. So I’m going to be completely honest here- I haven’t scored me a copy of Turning Point: Fall of Liberty yet. IGN, and everyone else for that matter, haven given the new Nazi-killer alternate-reality shooter pitiful, well pathetic, reviews. For that reason only, I have yet to use precious bandwidth to pull down the region free version of the game that was released to the public two weeks ago. I did, however, get a chance to play the demo that was released on Xbox Live Marketplace (for free). The developers of Turning Point have based the entire game around what would happen if the Nazis invaded the United States back during World War 2.

At the beginning of the game, Winston Churchill, one real bad ass, is killed in a car accident. Things go down hill from there for the Allies (uphill if you’re Hitler), and the Nazis end up invading New York City with some bad ass zeppelins. You start out working construction up in a skyscraper, when the Nazis invade the city. You then, because you are awesome, proceed to kill scores of identical looking Stormtroopers and have to save the free world singlehandedly.

I have to admit the alternate reality take on WW2 is a pretty novel idea, and I was actually pretty excited to play the game. The game play is fun, especially when you can hold the bad guys hostage and use them as a human shield, while shooting the other bad guys. There is a multiplayer element the game, although it seems to be an afterthought on the developer’s part.

Go ahead and check out a copy of Turning Point: Fall of Liberty- at least you’ll get the chance kill some Nazis along the way. That’s always fun, right?
