Product Description

Product Description:

Battalion Wars returns with its newest installment, Battalion Wars 2. Tricked into believing that the Solar Empire is developing a devastating super-weapon, Commander Pierce and Colonel Windsor of the Anglo Isles launch a pre-emptive strike. General Herman and Brigadier Betty of the Western Frontier are on garrison duty in the Solar Empire when the Anglos strike, and assist Empress Lei-Qo and Admiral A-Qira in repelling the invaders. But as the nations of the world, including the Tundran Territories, are once again propelled into all-out conflict, it becomes clear that a shadowy figure is pulling the strings from afar.

Features:

  • Take command with the Wii Remote and Nunchuk: Command and control everything from tanks and helicopter gunships to naval battleships and submarines, and deploy an array of different soldiers.
  • Connect to Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection to battle against other players all over the world, or join with friends to play co-operatively. Battalion Wars 2 features three multiplayer modes and 16 unique multiplayer levels. Battle head-to-head in the skirmish and assault modes or team up with another player in co-op mode.
  • Tactics are everything: Players control every aspect of the battle as they command units, capture facilities and advance toward their primary objectives. When not actively commanding, players can take direct control of any soldier or vehicle in the field and leap into the fray.
  • Combat rages on land, sea and air as players command six different armies through five theaters of war, each with its own unique commanding officers.

Wait For The Price To Drop October 31, 2007
Fun:   
I suppose this game ("BWii") technically falls into the category of real-time strategy, a genre seemingly poorly suited to consoles, but Kuju has designed the interface around a third person shooter mold. You exist on the battlefield, not hovering above it, in any of your choice of the individual soldiers or vehicles assigned to you on a mission and can switch between them at any time. You can run around, jump, dodge, and shoot as that individual unit but to be honest this is incidental.

Your first priority in Bwii is commanding all your units as a cohesive force via selecting between the unit icons at the bottom of the screen with the WiiMote d-pad. To that end you use the individual you are "possessing," so to speak, to target the enemies you want the d-pad selected unit to attack. So, for example, I am commanding through the eyes of my mobile anti-air (AA) unit but see enemy bazooka troops coming. If I have assault troops I can select their icon at the bottom of the screen and then target the enemies with my AA unit and push A. The assault troops will then attack the enemy bazooka troops. I could even jump into one of the assault troops and go after the bazookas myself.

The point of this convoluted system is to make sure you pick the right types of units to attack the enemies. In fact, that seems to be the sum total of strategy in BWii especially given that the several factions are distinguished only by the look, not the capability, of their units. But something had to give in light of the frenetic nature of command from a third person point of view rather than from the traditional RTS bird's eye view. But poor interface design doesn't justify shallow game play. BWii ends up feeling stiff and one dimensional.

That said, the overall look strikes a good balance between cute and realistic (and you can view the great concept art as you open up the various factions throughout the campaign) but the graphic experience in BWii will not leave you breathless. That's okay; this is a Wii game after all. But Wii games are supposed to make up for in fun what they lack in beauty. This one falls short on both counts. It can certainly be fun, especially if you liked the first one or even "Tanks" on WiiPlay, but just be patient and wait for the price drop. Fifty bucks is too much for this one.

An Honest Review November 30, 2007
Fun:   
This game is great. There is a lot of fun and it is very easy to get into. For both the veterans (from the first installment Battalion Wars) and new players, the controls will be a bit complex at first but smoothly flow the more you play.

Single Player Campaign is great. The story blends in well with the gameplay. There are a multitude of missions for all but one nation and each becomes harder than the other. You will find yourself to replay many of the missions in order to get the best grade. Multiplayer is fine and dandy. There is no voice chat but surprisingly is not essential for the kinds of missions you could play with other people.

If you are looking for a great war game for the Wii with loads of available units to play and have good fun then this is the game for you.

Great game. November 1, 2007
A Kid's Review
Fun:   
This is probably the most interactive RTS game that is on the market. The concept of being able to fight alongside the soldiers you are commanding is very fun. Though it's a little harder fighting and controlling your men at the same time it's one of the very few your able to do that, setting it apart from other games. Very fun and addictive gameplay although i don't reccomend this to people without internet connected to their nintendo wii because after completing campaign you will find yourself with nothing to do. If you do have online you'll have 35+ more hours of gameplay. Get some friends with BWII and youll have unlimited amounts of fun. Overerall a great game to get. I reccomend this to any RTSer for a new twist to any RTS games. And even if your not a RTS fan you can still pick up and play this game as easy as an RTSer can.

Buen juego
El juego es entretenido, no es de lo mejor pero clasifica dentro de mi escala de Bueno, algo muy interesante es el juego en linea ya sea "vs" o "co-op".
