WW2 in the Pacific shooters
Posted: Sat May 28, 2011 2:37 pm
Know of any Pacific-themed WW2 single-player shooters? Or WW2 shooters with Pacific-themed missions (like Operation Stranger in H&D2)?
I can think of these.
Elite Forces: WWII Iwo Jima, 2001
Deadly Dozen: Pacific Theater, 2002
Hidden & Dangerous 2, 2003
Medal of Honor: Pacific Assault, 2004
The History Channel: Battle for the Pacific, 2007
Call of Duty: World at War (aka COD5), 2008
I know most Pacific-themed WW2 shooters are beach landings, jungles, caves, or bunkers; but I have an interest in them as it affected us more out here and I've lived in some of the places were the battles took place.
I have the first four on my list and have asked Jason for his views on last two as he has previously posted comments on them. If anyone has played them I'd be interested in their viewpoints too.
Finally, I came across "Battlefield 1943" (2009) which lets you serve as a US or Japanese Marine; but did not add it to my list since it is Online multiplayer only and I'm looking for single-player games.
Thanks.
