One of my favourite games of all times, ported extremely well onto PC (a lot of PC ports have issues, VC does not).

Can be played with either Keyboard + Mouse or the more natural feeling gamepad (it was a PS3 exclusive originally) equally well.

The art style is beautiful and has aged (and will continue to age) very well while the music score is the best I have heard.

Difficulty is just right, it may seem a bit harsh to start with, but enemies die just as quickly as you do (only boss type units are tougher than your own), and while you have a numerical disadvantage (up to 9 units) you have the benefits of being able to sling several (often game-breakingly good, but not essential to 100% the game at all (I've beaten every single non-DLC (well, it's pre-packaged DLC on the PC port) mission without them) orders as well as have better equipment.

VC is also a heavily story driven game, with cutscenes (skippable, at least on the second run, haven't tried on the first run) and gameplay segments sharing equal importance.

Like all good games, enemy AI does get derpy at times, doing things that would make their friends ashamed of them (like shooting their friends with friendly fire because they failed to realise that their friend was between them and their target).
