Some of you may have already play Commandos on other platforms know its a real treat to have 

Commandos 2:Men of Courage and Commandos 3: Destination Berlin. Originally released in 

2001, these games were part of the popular series which will continue to be added to with an 

upcoming release of a first person shooter called Commandos Strike Force which should be 

released this summer.  Unfortunately, a Mac version does not appear to be worked on yet. First 

question I have is why not include the first Commandos? We may never know the answer, but 

hey, you get these two for the price of one.
