Battalion Wars review:
4 stars (An ok game to buy.) - I got this game not too long ago and when i first played it i loved it. To start off with tho i dont like how short the game is.... it only takes about 6 hours to beat.

The controls work ok but they coulda made em better i'd give controls 3/5 stars.

The graphics are pretty good and i'd give em 4/5 stars.

Now for the fun factor i'd give it 5/5 star, it's really a fun game to play.

For replay value i give it 4/5 stars cause i just like to go back and beat some of my more favorite missions again also just to beat them again to get a better score.

Overall the game is really fun and at times can be hard to beat some of the missions cause maybe you weren't paying attention when the gunships game and blew ur battalion up.

Some of the cons are like i said the game is a short game, the controls could be a bit better, and ur own guys AI when ur not in control of them suck bad!! I mean the guys follow u really good but they have no clue when to attack sometimes and they don't dodge very well like the enemy does when ur fighting.

If i had a choice wether to buy it or not i wouldn't buy it for 50 dollars, i'd wait till it got down to $30 dollars or so.
5 stars (great game!!!!!! should have multiplayer) - this game is great. the contrlos are a little confusing at first, but you figure it out soon. its pretty cool that you get to drive around in tanks and jeeps. the only game i ever played where you get to drive around in tanks and jeeps was halo. the only flaw in the game is THERES NO MULTIPLAYER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! if theres ever a sequal it needs multiplayer!!!!!!!!!!! other then that this is a must buy game for anyone who owns a game cube. my overall rating of this game is 10
4 stars (He who seeks peace should be prepared for war!) - Battalion Wars which is a game that combines strategy and action to the point where it's one of my favorite games. You take the role of a commander and command your battalion from the direct control of a unit. You can order your units to follow you, attack an enemy unit, move to a certain position, defend a designated spot, and much more. You don't have to worry about aiming since you can lock on to enemy units and you can also roll to avoid incoming fire. Each mission puts you in command of a battalion of units and you have to complete certain objectives and secondary objectives such as capturing a capture point or rescuing a group of soldiers. You can change the unit you're controlling whenever you want and you can order individual units at a time. You don't have to worry about ammo except for reloading and your weapon overheating from firing too long. I hate how the game is so short because you can beat it in about 6 hours or so and the missions aren't very long either. But the good part about it is that time really flies by when you're playing through them. One time I started playing at 6:40 and when I was done playing I thought it was 8:00, but I looked up at the clock to find that it was 11:00. The bad part about the game is the imbalance of difficult and easy missions. In campaign the number 2, the first mission is kind of hard if you don't know what to do while the last mission of it is almost impossible to lose. Most of the missions can be beaten by taking a single unit(I mean like a bazooka or mortar veteran) and blowing everything up and this includes the last mission. I would like to see a multi-player in it though. It's short, but a good game and I hope to see a sequel.
