Let's take a look back at one of the most original World War 2 games. One of my favorite hidden gems. Battlestations: Midway, available on 360, PC, and Steam.

Thank you for still playing our game! I was one of the 3D modelers.

It’s a great game and it’s sequel is great two , it’s up there with birds of steel . I do wish that a third game was made that focused on the European theater of ww2 . Where we play as the British , Russians and nazi Germany .

Never knew this game was by the same developer of Nexus : TJI which is my favorite game. Played both Battlestation games at release and replayed the first one a couple of times over the years. I remember not liking the second one for some reason.

@Tunuh 8 ай бұрын

How do you feel about the Homeworld series? Yeah the 2nd one seems not liked, but I've never played it so I'm curious to see for myself why.

@Rubafix989 8 ай бұрын

@@Tunuh I loved the first homeworld, barely touched the second one, and desert of kharak was ok. I didn't like the remaster however, beyond the graphical update they poorly implemented many mechanics like the formations and it shows that gearbox lacks the skills relic had. I ended up firing Midway and almost finished it in one sitting =D

How are the controls? Does the game support gamepads/flightsticks or is it k&m only? Might give it a try

I used mouse and keyboard and had a great time. It should support Xbox and xinput gamepads. Not sure about flightsticks. I highly recommend this site for all older PC games: www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Battlestations:_Midway

I got this game on steam on a whim, I didn’t think much of it and I couldn’t get the hang of the tutorial. Might give it another try. What’s the best way to play it in your opinion?

@Tunuh 8 ай бұрын

Make sure it's your monitors resolution and widescreen, and patched to the latest version, www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Battlestations:_Midway Then do the tutorial, then try the campaign. That'll take 1-2 hours and if you don't like it then, then it's just not what you like. Was there anything in particular you had trouble with in the tutorial? Like the sub mechanics?

@@Tunuh I found the plane controls a little difficult. They were inverted I think it’s been a long time since I gave it a try.

@Tunuh 8 ай бұрын

Oh! Yes I know exactly what you mean. The plane controls on the PC version are bad. You can use a controller but it's iffy in my opinion. The best balance I found was keyboard and mouse, and just using the mouse for flying. It's not ideal, but it's more than playable imo.

Tunuh, looks like a fun game to try. Are you still going to be beating all the ps2 games?

@Tunuh 8 ай бұрын

Yeah! Tbh I'm not sure how to cover them. For next video I'm going to try to make it more of a journey with me through the game. Less editing, less formal and "analytical", but a longer video. I'm also a little unsure how to title them :x being a youtuber is tough :( Feedback is always appreciated.

@SLRModShop 8 ай бұрын

@@Tunuh My feedback: be yourself, do your own thing. If you try to copy someone, there's already that someone. And if you copy them, we're missing out on TunaCats... Which is a shame. "beating all PS2 games" is probably a challenge that will be more detrimental than good. Honestly, a few years ago, my interests were totally different, I had an electronic company. Nowadays, I'm a software engineer... By the time you'll finish this challenge, you'll be a different person... Chances are, you'll give up midway through... So, might as well accept that asap and just go with the flow. Just do what you feel like doing, the way you see fit, and have fun. That's my feedback. (and I put this game on my wishlist, I'll probably play it next weekend. I've been having a blast playing some early-2000's games lately. So glad it's on Steam, that's what I was hoping for throughout the video)

@dopesteeloe8934 8 ай бұрын

@@Tunuh fair enough. I like videos of people's experience playing a game, especially for older or random games I've never heard about. If I'm not going to play the game (which is the case for most older games) it's good to see the experience so it's almost like I've played the game and its been condensed into a video, like a more articulate version of when I was 13 and my friend is telling me about a game he got for christmas and played over the holidays. But if I have played the game before, it's always good to get someone else's opinion and view to see how it matches with mine (on the flip side). But as long as you have fun playing the game or making the video, that's the most important thing. I just like the idea of someone making videos about playing every ps2 game, that's a cool concept. But if it's another game that's cool too, I like your videos regardless.

I like it, but I prefer that the games more on the arcadey side, instead of simulation. I can see why it'd frustrate people though. How's the sequel? I haven't played it yet.

@@Tunuhooh also there’s a mod for midway called the “international mod” that allows you to have a Japanese campaign and new challenges that use the multiplayer maps and new challenges although it’s a little bugged however from what I’ve seen people are working on fixing the mod
