World at War Preview on IGN
Posted: Wed Jan 19, 2005 4:23 pm
A World at War just got a front page preview on IGN. The title of this article really sets the mood, take a look at some of the snips or check the whole article out at http://pc.ign.com/articles/580/580574p1.html.
"We go hands-on with this turn-based treasure."
"Though the tutorials aren't in yet, the game has a pleasant approachability "
(It is a preview afterall [:)])
"Though those of us who played a lot of Axis and Allies associate American forces with China, the Chinese had their own thing going in World War 2 and it makes sense to allow players to take charge of them separately. China's responsibilities aren't quite as broad as those of the four other powers, so it makes a nice place to start for new players."
"As in the real War, victory in the game is measured in degrees."
"Naturally, there's quite a bit more that could be said about this game. We're still discovering things about it with every new session. We'll be back with even more information in the future. I mean, that's the only way I can justify to the rest of the guys here at IGN PC that I need to keep playing it, right?"
Overall it is a great first look at the game and I hope everyone who reads these forums takes a moment to read and enjoy it! Once again you can find it at http://pc.ign.com/articles/580/580574p1.html
Sincerely,
Joe Lieberman
