 difficult and dull July 28, 2008
K. Roberts (Fort Worth, TX, USA)
This game is difficult to play on the Wii, controls are not accurate and the graphics are dull.
Realistic? I say nay nay June 24, 2008

For all of those people who say that this game gives you a realistic and historical way to play through the Pacific Theatre, I say nay nay. You are basically a one man army, you can drive a PT boat by just entering it and getting on the MG and you can take down the WHOLE Japanese Army. The graphics are terrible with no depth or detail, all the enemys look alike and all the look alike too. The missions are terribly repetitive, with basically every level having you take out an MG nest or shoot down a couple of Zeros. You can take a shotgun blast to the face while holding a knife and still be able to kill the guy. This was developed by the same people who developed "The Civil War", a crappy way to make a buck. This is a crappier way to make a buck. A cheap cash in which could have been made into a great game if it had been made by someone who knows how to make a game. On another point, the weapons kinda suck. They are general on the wepaons they have in the game(the same in every WWII game), but in those games grenades go more than 3 feet in front of you. It is a barely enjoyable title, and I would not recommend it to anyone except for those who like crappy games.

I bought this for my husband and he plays it every chance he gets. Now he does even less around the house-grrrr.
Not Call of Duty January 4, 2008

I will make this short and sweet
Pros: Provides the player a chance to play through realistic missions with historical information and clips. Fairly easy to play once you get used to the controls. Gives players "awards" for different accomplishments to create re-playability
Cons: Graphics are quite poor compared to Call of Duty 3 for Wii and the AI is pretty dump. They always charge you even when they are covered.
 Great game. December 31, 2007

This game is much harder playing on the WII than I thought. Aiming is tough but makes the game realistic.
