Commandos: Behind Enemy Lines


Do you like enemy lines and per chance being behind them? Do you own a PC made since 1967? Then our friends at Get Games may have just the deal for you.


Yes, as the headline suggests, you can currently buy the Commandos Complete collection for a whopping £2, which is a saving of about seven million per cent.


The pack consists of Commandos: Behind Enemy Lines, expansion pack Beyond the Call of Duty, and sequels Commandos 2: Men of Courage, Commandos 3: Destination Berlin and Commandos: Strike Force.


The Commandos series, from Spanish developer Pyro, is an isometric World War II stealth game where you direct a Green Beret, sniper, spy and other specialists to complete a range of fiendishly difficult objectives to turn the tide of war.


Full disclosure: Get Games is the downloadable PC games service brought to you by Eurogamer, so this is technically a bit of an advert, but we only talk about it on Eurogamer.net when we think there's a deal on you'll really like. Because we're still marines and we've got a job to do.
