Battlestations Midway (xbox 360) Preview
Xbox 360 version, due January 30th in US and currently on retail shelves in Europe, Battlestations: Midway follows the story of naval recruit Henry Walker, whose first assignment as a gunner at Pearl Harbor is the starting point of an incredible career at the heart of the US Pacific Fleet in 1942, in what was to become one of the most inspirational military campaigns in history.
Promising a blend of 3rd-person action with, large-scale naval combat, the game attempts to bring to life the great Pacific battles of World War II. From the chaos of Pearl Harbor, through the Philippines, Java and the Coral Sea all the way to the epic Battle of Midway.
Preview summary
"The in-game environments are as lush and lovely as you'd expect, with all sorts of weather effects and lots of detail, and visual flourishes include a camera that follows bombs and torpedoes after you've fired them"... full preview from Eurogamer
"Like a chess-match with guns. While the graphics still need some work, this is a solid strategy game that RTS fans and action fans will enjoy alike." full preview from IGN

Meh''
I'm holding out for Lost Planet for this month (Jan.)....
You better too! I think LP will be awesome fun!!
More Xbox 360 lovelies to tempt me with...
Between that and the Wii I feel like Father Jack Hackett having lovely bottles of booze dangled in front of me just out of my grasp...
feck! arse!
But! but Deitrix theres submarines and torpedos and shit..... sigh!... okay Lost Planet it is.... hmph!!
greetings FC, Boooze?... where? ...
Right here! (FK profers a festive glass of mulled wine to his esteemed blogging colleague and good friend, along with some snackerels of the cheese and wine variety...)
Happy New year!
I had made a new years resolution which involved snacks
(scoff!!! munch)
and drink
(gurgle...)
but id hate to appear anti-social... mulled is exactly how should feel after this wee temporary hiatus in my fervent desire to lose weight and avoid the demon drink
(falls off wagon.....)
Now, while you indulge in your drinking fetish I'll just complain about the lack of the battle of Moscow from this game.
(checks review....) damn they left out the battle for Moscow... im sorry i will endeavour to have this changed.......
(picks up phone......)
thank you for your eagle eyed attention... can't for the life of me imagine how i didn't spot it myself...
Perhaps it's because you're nt daily wearing your red army uniform while singing love song for Stalin...
your right of cour.......( braincell moves....) wait you mean you ....?
(stands to attention..... salutes Gnome...)
Izvineetye comrade Gnome, Long live Stalin... Long live the red army, the Russian Mafia and Vodka.....
