Worthplaying: Battlestations: Pacific Review

WP writes: "Somewhat telling is that my favorite feature of Battlestations Pacific is the ability, within the game’s presentation options, to turn on the graphics engine’s antique color newsreel effect not only in the cut scenes but also throughout the in-game action. It’s a gimmick befitting consoles, not unlike the way Killzone 2 used depth of field and creative camera focus to produce a far more cinematic experience than would have been otherwise possible. When you’ve just sunk a destroyer, the cut scenes in Battlestations Pacific are designed to give you the feeling you’re relishing the day’s accomplishments while viewing an old WWII-era newsreel or snooping in on secret combat film shot from a bomber’s belly camera."
