The game isnt hyped as much as it should have been, I would suggest you buy the first Battalion Wars for GC(can get it for about $10 new)and play that for a while, its a fun game and the only real problem with it was no multiplayer. BWii has multiplayer and online along with some other cool features, so its improving upon an already great game.

Well I assume you mean overhyped in the forum because it sure aint over hyped by nintendo. I dont agree that its overhyped, this game is going to deserve all the hype we can give it. Go to gamestop and get the first one for the gamecube its only 9.99 and imagine a newer version of that with online multiplayer, then you will understand why everyone is hyped about Bwii.

Like a strategy game, but you can control individual units I think.

Ah man, beaten to it ;). Seriously, the best thing you can do is read it, and you'll understand. As it's not being paraded by Nintendo, some others have to do it ;)

It would probably be worth it to just rent. It's a pretty short game and there is no multiplayer in the first.

There isn't a union for the BWii Campaign. Maybe we should start one. I don't know a lot about the first game though.

Because it is awesome, if you have never heard of it you should try the GC version while the sequel doesn't come out.

The game will absolutely rock. Im so glad to hear more people talk about this under appreciated franchise. Hopefully the online in this game is extremely robust so we can all have a good time.

I don't see that much hype. If there is and I just don't see it, the reason i probably because BWii is going to be one of the first WiFi games, just like Pokemon for the Wii, which got WAAY too much hype in my opinion for such a crappy game.

OMG Im in Australia and battalion wars is like still $99.95/$79.99 which is the price for full retail games last generation.

Geist too is like $99.99 and so is Baten Kaitos.

All the reviews I saw for the original Batallion Wars, aside from the IGN review, said it was pretty unimpressive. That why I want to know why BWII is so hyped.

This game is barely hyped at all.

IGN and GameSpot gave it good reviews. Reviewers often complained about the lack of multiplayer and it was hard to micromanage units (the latter I didn't find hard at all).

BWii fixes both of those with WiFi and a map.
