Some of the most famous battles in wartime history occurred over the glistening blue waters of the Pacific Ocean during World War II. Massive aircraft carriers deployed the battle ships and airplanes that took part in these conflicts, playing an integral part in the outcome of the war. Feel what it was like to be in command of one of these colossal ships as either Admiral Lucas Stark of the US Navy or Hideaki Hashimoto of the Japanese Imperial Navy ~ the choice is yours.Take control of an aircraft carrier during famous WWII campaigns, such as The Battle of Midway, Pearl Harbor and Wake Island. Command the ship's cannon turrets in Survival mode, use the watchtower to look out for enemies and spot new missions. Give orders to an entire squadron of airplanes, and switch between different planes to get the most out of your fleet. Each plane is equipped with realistic weapons and a limited amount of ammunition, based on real models' configurations and capacities. With a huge arsenal of war machinery to choose from, including three aircraft carriers, 21 battleships and 13 aircrafts, you'll be equipped to dominate epic naval battles.

I bought this game because I wanted something different. It gives you the chance to place both the allies and Japanese in famous battles in the pacific. The only issue is that it is cumbersome to use the dualshock controller with the layouts they have. If I had a joystick controller, it would play better. Overall a fun game.
