R.U.S.E. - Image 1Add one more title to the list of RTS games. Ubisoft has just announced a new one called R.U.S.E, is a "one-of-a-kind" RTS game set during World War II whose main selling point seems to be a feature that lets players bluff and deceive their way to victory.

Battlestations: Midway for Xbox 360 - Image 1Now up on Xbox Live is the Iowa Mission Pack for Eidos Interactive's Battlestations: Midway. Finally, after themes and pin-ups, we get to see some more World War II shooting action. Not that we have any complaints about them pin-up girls.

Anyhow, the Iowa Mission Pack is available for 400 points, so that shouldn't weigh so much on your Microsoft pockets. As promised earlier, this mission pack will be including new stuff, like the multiplayer map for the Battle of the Sibuyan Sea, as well as the single player challenge mission, Raid on Truk. Also, you will find here five new exclusive units in the form of the USS Iowa battleship, P-38 Lightning (Allied) and Gekko (Japanese) fighters, the IJN Shimakaze Destroyer, and the new Japanese mini-sub.

The Iowa Mission Pack for Battlestations: Midway will not, however, be available in Japan's list of Xbox 360 games. But as for the rest of you guys, it's all good.

Battlestations: Midway


Eidos Interactive today confirmed that Battlestations: Midway will not be released on Xbox 360 and PC until some time in 2007. The game was originally supposed to ship before the end of the year and no official release date has been set as of yet. For those that have not heard anything about the game, it will let you have massive air, sea and underwater WWII battles in a unique mix of intense action and tactical gameplay.

You will have the ability to control dozens of water based naval ships such as submarines and battleships as well as air crafts to get your flying fix. So for the most part it looks like there will be three different types of gameplay, two water based and one air based.

Battlestations: Midway's story follows naval recruit Henry Walker, whose first assignment is as a gunner at Pearl Harbor--the starting point of an incredible career at the heart of the US Pacific Fleet in 1942, in what was to become one of the most inspirational military campaigns in history. So for those of you out there that have been waiting for a new naval game be on the look out and when more news becomes available we'll be sure to keep you informed.
