Battlestations: Midway (X360/PC)


Official web page: LINK
Publisher: Eidos
Developer: Eidos Interactive
Genre: Historic Real-Time Strategy Action Game
Release date: Jan 30, 2007
Story/Description:
Quote:

Prepare for a totally new combat experience as you fight massive air, sea and undersea battles in WWII's Pacific theatre in direct command of multiple warships, planes and submarines in this epic solo and online tactical action game.

For the first time experience the true intensity of large scale aerial and naval combat in a unique mix of direct action and tactical play. Directly control dozens of highly detailed warships, aircraft and submarines in a 'free-control' environment as you design and execute the best plans of attack. Command the colossal firepower of a fully armed battleship, engage the enemy in fierce dogfights through flak-infested skies, or utilise the silent attack of your submarine to unleash deadly torpedo attacks on unsuspecting enemies.

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.

yeah the controls can be a little tough with no manual or tutorial.

But its pretty simple, you just use the dpad alot in this game.

Also you can see the controls in the options menu.

Now it got stuck in waiting for others. But anyone played more than couple times? I'm totally lost in what to do, are we all commanders some in ships and others in airbases? Was hoping this would be like battlefield where you get to fly those planes and shoot the AA guns inside :\
