Batallions Wars 2 is a fun, strategy shooter that makes you want more!
But dont have that paragraph have you thinking its a"Magical" game with wands and wizards and crap, Its a strategy war game set in present day, and really doesnt rely on that sort of stuff, just normal guns, tanks, helicopters, ect.
-Lets meet the soldiers you can be from semi-automatic to air defense, there are alot of choices, and you can be anyone of them... And command them all, with a simple press of a button, but we will get into gameplay later, You can be Grunts, which are Semi-Automatic holding soldiers, Assault, which are fully-automatic holders, and do much more damage, you go your bazooka grunts, which fire massive blasts to destroy massive things, make them go boom, very exciting :D you can be air defense and know out helicopters and jets with homing missles, which is very fun, and much much more!
-But, as a newcomer to the series, it delivers a warm welcome, you can now be vehicles! Tanks, Helicopters, vehicles like warthogs and mongooses from halo, battleships, and many more exciting new additions to the game! They are all fun to control and easy at that.
-GAMEPLAY-
This game plays very well, you can control a whole army in a click of a button, using the D-Pad on the Wii-Remote to choose what soldier/vehicle you want to command or you can choose "all" commanding all of your troops, and locking on an object with "Z" then "A" to command your troops to attack, guard, or capture it, depending on what it is.
- To control a ground troop all you have to do it aim the gun by pointing at the screen, locking on an enemy with "Z" and shooting with "B". Control him with the analog stick on the nunchuck and roll, jump, and monoover by flicking the nunchuck in a certain direction.
-Vehicles control the same but you move the flying ones by holding the remote like an analop stick.
-Graphics-
The graphics have improved, and the troops and vehicles and backgrounds look great, and the game is very artisic looking with sweet animations, but it still could have been better, framerate is good too, and has a decent camera system, but sometimes it zooms too much in on the player and becomes a FPS basicly, but.... Whats wrong with that ;).
Sound is great, but the overly axaderated accents are pretty annoying after awhile, but still fun. Gun sounds are great and the troops talk in funny high squeeky voices. :D
---THE CONCLUSION---
All around, this game is great, and if you own a Wii I concider you get it, AND...
Online Play is a great feature added when you can play about 6 different games, co-op and 1 army vs the other, capturing their bases, its all fun and lag free.
...If your into blowing stuff up, (I know I am :P) Commanding a whole army in one hand, and just having great quality fun, or just wanna play a fast, exciting, game that never lets down the action....
...PICK-THIS-UP!
