Battlestations: Midway dated News

PC Xbox 360 News by Tom Bramwell

15 January, 2007

Eidos' Battlestations: Midway will be released on 9th February for Xbox 360 and PC, the publisher said this afternoon. Or possibly this morning - sometimes email gets caught up and that.

Midway - or BSM, if it's any easier - is an intriguing blend of action and strategy, which sees players hopping instantly between a variety of war machines as they cause trouble in the Pacific.

For a fuller description and a brief impression of what it's like to play, why not turn to our recent preview, where you'll also learn what Dave expects from his PR swank-a-thons.

Look out for a full review in the near future. Probably from Kristan, since he can't resist the lure of a few gamerpoints, and is bound to be eyeing them up already.

Joins back of hope queue.

Looks like a lot of hope ahead me thinks:

Ducks Jonsaan's shot, throws empty Pringles can.

They've got a Purple Heart award for the worst player in a game. Think I'll be having that, thankyouverymuch.

Where's the fucking PS2/Xbox version?!

I've been waiting about three sodding years for this game, and now it's released I can't even play it?!

[Disclaimer - no, I'm not getting a 360 yet]

/Looks at 'Hope Queue' - filled with sprawling, moaning victims of jonsaan's violence.

/Gazes at 'Expectation Line' - appears to be filled with bandwagon-jumpers and hangers-on.

/Starts 'Anticipation Assembly' - new, for true devotees and also possesses alliteration ;-)

/casts envious glances at Anticipation Assembly line out of corner of eye but fears backlash from Hope queue and intellectual flagalation from Anticipation Assembly should i move.

/Decides that two days in one line is enough for anybody and the pubs are open soon.

/find pub with view of all queues and waits quietly while sipping pint of wife beater.
