Xbox 360

Eidos released these images and a gameplay trailer of Battlestations: Pacific, to be released around April on PC and Xbox 360. The graphics in this action-strategy game might not be the finest , but the first game had solid gameplay.

Eidos press release:
Eidos Interactive, creator of some of the world’s leading video game properties, today announced the launch of a new community-focused destination site for Battlestations: Pacific™.

Sequel to 2007’s critically acclaimed Battlestations: Midway™, Battlestations: Pacific™ picks up where its predecessor left off. Pitching players into the might of World War II’s Pacific conflict, the game delivers intense, action-packed combat and strategic warfare on an extraordinary scale and features two distinctly different single-player campaigns. A historically accurate US Campaign puts players in command of the US fleet through The Battle of Midway to Okinawa as they try to secure peace in the Pacific. Or play as the Japanese and take control of the Imperial Japanese fleet with the unique chance to fight at Pearl Harbor before attempting to change the course of history and take full control of the Pacific Ocean. Players can also take the battle online with an enhanced multiplayer, offering five new and innovative co-op and team-based modes.

“Battlestations offers a blend of action and strategy unlike any other videogame on the market and as such has a dedicated and committed community of fans,” said Lee Singleton, General Manager of Eidos Game Studios. “The launch of Battlestations.net as a destination site for both information and discussion on the game comes as a direct result of listening and interacting with our communities.”

Launched today, the new Battlestations.net site offers a feature-rich destination for information, entertainment and discussion on this anticipated sequel. News, screens and movies on the game will be accompanied by in-depth developer blogs, podcasts, exclusive website competitions and Eidos-hosted Battlestations: Midway™ multiplayer sessions, allowing fans of the game a chance to brush up on their skills before the launch of Battlestations: Pacific™.

Those interested in enlisting can join the discussions at www.battlestations.net.

Battlestations: Pacific™ is set for release on Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft and Games for Windows® in spring 2009.

Well.. WOW! I'm actually impressed! If this is in-game then it certainly looks good enough for me! I liked the gameplay in the first Battlestations, this one looks enjoyable for me too.

May not be the finest graphics, but I still like how it looks. It doesn't have the overusing of shiny metal and such, wich so many titles do. It looks more natural this way. A bit like half-life 2.
Also, the cockpit view looks amazing, especially with the lighting.

I didn't mean that the graphics are *bad*, but I don't think the game looks incredible either. The game takes place out in open sea, so they should be able to crank out some more. The framerate seems to hold up though, that's always nice.

With that in mind, the images are in PC resolution so the footage could be from the same version.

I agree with Manager, and holding the framerate up is the least that we could expect with those graphics.

Graphics are more than i was expecting. Midway gfx quality was already satisfying too me. Abscence of framedrops and/or screen tearing is always a plus (considering even top titles as GoW2 and Fallout 3 didn't escape these problems). I gave Midway a high review score and still consider it to be one of the finest RTS games on console. It had a certain Operation Flashpoint grandeur with the ability to pop into any vehicle/plane on such large battlefields. I'm expecting Pacific will be at least equally enjoyable.
