    This game is worth a rent... but not a buy. Its rather good but gets old quickly. It seems to have no replay value what so ever (as opposed to advance wars). I was kinda hoping for something like army men or something like that but.... it didn't really suit me.

    Funny game. Quite entertaining. I like the visuals, sounds and gameplay. but the campaign has too many mission with a lack of choice. most of the mission have to be accomplished in a certain way. I also miss some more coop-missions.

    I liked the game, but you couldn't skip those frieking tacky CUTSCENES! also, durring Wi-Fi play, some cheaters would shut their power off and cut the connection 3 seconds before they lost.Cheaters. By the way if you happen to play against me on wi-fi, my screen name is "war-pig"

    Horrible Horrible game... It's one of those siituations where you think this game could be really cool. But a terrible camera combined with the sense that you're playing a tutorial for the whole game makes this one of the worst games ever. Don't waste your time with this one.

    Campaign is sorta dull,but still fun,tons of classes,and online play wil keep me entertained for a long time to come.Unlockables are just the icing on the cake.

    Excellent. Easilly one of the best Wii games out there. The only real bad thing about this is that it lacks offline multiplayer. But since nearly everyone has internet support for their wii, or at least can get a wi-fi adapter, It's pretty inconsequential. Solid single player. Solid multiplayer. Solid game.

    My first time playing a Battalion Wars game and I find it super fun. Multiplayer is the best. Awesome missions to complete that aren't just "capture the flag" or Deathmatch. Co-op multiplay is my favorite. The game overall is pretty easy to control with a large arsenal of soldiers and vehicles. I highly recommend this game if you are looking for something different. I would agree that they should of had more Mouse-like controls. Single-player mode is fun too but should be longer. Multiplayer is Awesome!… Expand

    Game is great! Only negatives is the short campaign and no voice chat on wi-fi.

    A great follow-up for a great original. The new IR and motion controls mostly improve the experience, and improved ally AI make commanding troops much easier.

    The series' transition to the Wii has produced mixed results. [Dec 2007, p.82]

    In the end, the formula is shallow and the experience marred by too many small problems. That said, it is a likable and fun Wii title that merges qualities from the action and RTS genres into a one hybrid genre.

    I really think that in terms of overall storyline, not to mention the variety of missions, soldiers, weapons and vehicles, this sequel has really one- upped its predecessor. When you additionally consider the mostly- intuitive controls, sleek presentation and fun online modes, you have the recipe for a great new installment to the sleeper franchise.
