Battlestations: Pacific
 
Hi,

There seems to be quiet a few people around here, but with nothing to talk about.

Just wondering if anyone else is looking forward to BS: Pacific.

I think it could be a good distraction until BOP is released.

Very much looking forward to the game. I got on the last one too late to get into MP with it, but loved the (short) SP. Another of the big releases for this year. The new game looks incredible.

The first Battlestations game was excellent, this should be a marked improvement if they've upped the scale and graphics, not to mention smoothed out the interface.

The blend of action and strategy was very impressive; I thought I was going to end up throwing my gamepad against the wall after the brutally long tutorial modes but once I got the hang of the controls it was great.

Great use of the gamepad for a complex system. Definitely a quality stopgap game till BoP.

BS Pacific to fill the gap
 
Yes, hopefully this can be our 'little Pacific fighters' until BoP comes out.;)

Or the air combat of ArmA 2.:cool:

Cockpit views are the best I've ever seen on consoles to date. You can even see the stick and throttle. Also they have an offline skirmish mode so there's endless hours of flying to be had. I see a lot of similarities with BOP in this game. Really pumped for it now.

Check out this vid to see what I mean:

It looks like a lot of fun, but too much HUD stuff on screen for my liking.

Graphically, i don't think it comes even close to BOP. The textures are very muddy. Personally i prefer the crisp look of BOP (based on what i have seen in videos).

BoP definitely has better graphics for sure.

Yeah based on the videos we've seen i really can't think of a better looking game on the 360.

Hopefully those graphics are not downgraded in the final version because of framerate issues etc.

Yeah, the game looks very 'arcady' and has a lot of arcade modes but has over 40 planes with cockpit views so it could keep us buisy until BoP comes out. BTW i posted this from my ipod. These things are awesome!
