Product Description
BattleStations: Pacific is the immense sequel to the critically acclaimed Battlestations: Midway. The innovative franchise returns to complete the entire Pacific War with two massive single-player campaigns, the historically based US campaign and a historically possible Japanese campaign. Players will experience one war through two epic sagas to be a part of history or change it. Commanding the US Fleet, players relive the grandest and most critical naval battles of the Pacific War and for the first time, as the Japanese, players lead the IJN Fleet to a completely different ending to the war. No other game delivers the challenge of an RTS with the rush of real-time WWII flight and naval warfare. Players need intelligence and expertise to plan their moves in order to remain one step ahead of the opponent. The players command both strategy and action to anticipate every opponent move and turn the tide of war. Twice the size of the original the sequel includes 28 major battles, 100 units including 21 new units, five new innovative multi-player modes across eight new multi-player maps, and new features which include island capture, kamikaze attacks, and an improved easy-to-use interface.

Battlestations Pacific Reviews
| 14 of 18 people found the following review helpful  Great Game, = Fun: This review is from: Battlestations Pacific (Video Game) Battlestations: Pacific is way better then it's older brother, Battlestations: Midway, with new Planes, new Ships and Better Graphics. In single player mode, you can play as the Americans and relive history, from the Solomon Islands, to Leyte, to Okinawa. or play as the Japanese and rewrite history, fighting "What if" battles. The mulitplayer is great, and if you don't have many skill playing in it, you can sharpen your skills in training and skirmish. all in all, it's a great game that can be played over and over without being boring. 9 of 11 people found the following review helpful  Excellent game, multiplayer lobby needs work, By Brian (Chicago, IL) - See all my reviews = Fun: Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Battlestations Pacific (Video Game) If you enjoy constructing a plan of attack with your teammates and rapidly adapting once the shells start flying, you will enjoy this game. If you think the Call of Duty Modern Warfare series is the best thing ever, you will probably hate the pace of this game.Having played Battlestations Midway, I was very pleased with the improvements to this franchise. The graphical detail and sounds are significantly improved and seem very realistic. The sheer number of units you can control (ships, subs, planes, bases) combined with multiple view points make this game the best WWII RTS/FPS combination on Xbox 360. There is a definite learning curve for the controls and unit strengths/weakness, but once you master them, the game is very fun. Many of the negative reviews that complain about the game being dull or lacking excitement are way off base. 8 player online matches are anything but dull with dozens of ships battling for bases while squadrons of planes fight...

Battlestations pacific solved this by adding a skirmish mode to the single player. However, there still is online multiplayer which is very fun. Overall it is a good game with good graphics. It is also pretty realistic. |
