big fan of the first one. Here's some videos of this upcoming epic battle game

i am very exited for it as well.... still one of the most underrated console games.

Agreed... The first one was a great game.

I played Midway on my PC. It was fun, but the online crowd wasn't as numerous as the 360's apparently. Though I did pay $20 less for it, and the DLC (when it finally showed up) was free. It's clear the game was developed for a console primarily, and the controls on a keyboard/mouse just don't do it justice. Even using a ps2 controller hooked into my PC didn't really feel right.


I don't own a 360, but if I were to get one, I would probably check this one out.

Uncle by marriage. My dad's dad was in the Pacific theater though.

My family sucks at war.


One great uncle died in a training accident (last one out of the B-17), and another great uncle died when he was hit by a drunk driver in Britain.

Researching this now from what I found my grandpa and one of his brothers was stateside during the war. One brother made it through the war arriving in Europe 6 to 8 days after D-Day and manned an anti-tank gun. The other brother was a cook's aide/driver/tank machine gunner in the 41st under Patton since Africa. I believe he was one of the most decorated men from WWII in Louisiana.


Back on topic though, Midway is an awesome game, cant wait for the new one.

That is just sick...w00t!!!

What is everyones thought on the previous installment? Is Midway still a blast to play? Thinking of picking this up for my dad and I since its only 15 bucks at gamestop so we can do some online co-op.

can be tough to find players online, but it is well made

some movies of the multiplayer modes. This is the pc version

Great game for guys like us I guess. I really liked it. Online was fun on the 360 if you could get a few friends together and actually work together. Saddly not as many friends as I would've hoped liked or played it.


Maybe we can get a group together from here.

Definitely a good game to play with a group of friends. When Midway came out there was a group of 4 of us that used to play together all the time.
