The game supposes that the incident in which a car struck Winston Churchill in New York on December 13th 1931 actually proved fatal – and that without his inspirational speeches to galvanise the Allies, the course of the Second World War took a very different route, with the Axis Powers even invading America.

Turning Point: Fall of Liberty is a good idea put badly into practice; what you might call an unfinished game.

Gamer 2.0

After playing through just a bit of Turning Point, we were completely disappointed. The old feeling to it completely ruined the original concept.

IGN

Shooting Nazis in the streets of three major U.S. cities should be a non-stop thrill ride that has me on the edge of my seat. This game provides the opposite experience.

Games Radar

Turning Point's minimalist approach to everything - from its stale levels and sticky controls to its thin plot and absent character development - killed what could've been a really unique and engaging shooter and will disappoint hardcore fans of the genre across the board.

VideoGamer

It feels a little wrong to be so down on a game that seemed genuinely interesting when it was first announced, but Turning Point is so devoid of the qualities needed in a modern FPS that it's impossible to sugar coat. It's just a very bad game, plain and simple.

Game Informer

With the number of average-to-outstanding FPS titles available on next-gen consoles, there’s absolutely no reason to waste your time with this disaster. [Apr 2008, p.86]

GameSpy

Its uninspired game design feels completely mired in an era that we'd sooner be done with. There's simply no reason to waste your time with it.

G4 TV

The game tells its story horribly, your character is both improbable and without any personality, the AI is terrible, the gameplay lackluster, and graphics middling. Even as a budget title, which Turning Point is certainly doomed to become, the game is hardly worth the bother.

The game makes it very clear that it takes place in an ALTERNATE HISTORY. One in which Churchill dies early. This is actually the cleverest part of the game--along with some really creative maps. I mean the game still sucks, but let's criticize it for the stuff actually sucks at--like a ridiculous main character, and decades-old fps game play. The guy who made the maps has talent and should leave and make maps for Fear. They could learn from him.

Phil H gave it a7:
it was a very good game, good plot and such i gave it a 7 because, well, its not THAT good, and its not the best game out there

Emre A. gave it a3:
This game is one of the worst WW2 games that i played. Graphics and sounds are also worst, and game is repetitive. Don't buy this...

[Anonymous] gave it a0:
Graphics that don't even stand up to Return to Castle Wolfenstein, terrible storyline, and boring overall game play.

Chuck M. gave it a4:
A generic and boring fps. That's all you really need to know about this game.
