To start off, this game lacks any kind of structure at all. Maybe I'm just spoiled with Call of Duty 4 or Medal of Honor but I figured since Activision did such a grreat job with COD4, I would give it a try. Now I'm 40 dollars more poor and I wasted 2 hours of my life. I didn't even finish the game it was that bad. All you do is follow around the same guy that says the same thing. The controls are way off. The AI in the game is horrific. The Japanese do the same thing over and over again. If you play it in surround sound, you'll hear the same explosion over and over again behind you that gets ridiculously annoying. The one saving grace I thought this game would have would be the graphics but even then they are mediocre. If I could give it zero stars or less, I would.The History Channel, Activision, and whomever else were involved with this game should be ashamed. What a joke. Be smart, avoid this dud at all costs!

this game downright sucks. the gameplay is extremely poor, the graphics look like something straight out the ps2 and the sound is very basic. most frustrating aspect of this game apart from what i have already mentioned is the truly cheesy way all the soldier's speak to one another. very unrealistic and tough to believe. if you are looking for a great 1st person shooter i would highly reccommend you avoid this and go for titles like COD4,MEDAL OF HONOR AIRBORNE,COD3 AND TIMESHIFT (in that order). when i think about the potential the ps3 has as a great gaming console and then play games like battle for the pacific it just makes me wanna throw the machine out the window. thank god for games like COD4 wich is in a class of it's own. this game in my opinion would's even get 1 star but it is compulsory to give a star. activision should hang up their gloves and call it a day. what were you guys thinking when you got this game together ?

Don't bother. There are so many better ways to spend those 40 plus dollars. From the graphics, to the level design, to the sound effects, to almost everything you can imagine, this game is a serious regression to the pre-Medal of Honor series era. Definitely not a game you'd like to see on your PS3 (especially if you just happened to bought the console and are buying your first games.) Such a pitty to see the History Channel -which I love to watchpromoting this game.
