Title: Cool looking new WWII Naval/Air game... - Midway
Post by: Kratzer on September 23, 2002, 03:53:46 PM

Anyone else seen stuff on this game?  It looks like it could be pretty cool - if nothing else, the graphics are pretty jaw dropping.

Just browsing the screenshots you will  see some cool stuff:

From the video I watched, damage models, etc. haven't been fully implemented, but the graphics - water effects, tracers, weather, etc. look amazing.  Ships, submarines, aircraft... could be pretty cool.

If you have the bandwidth, get this video:

New to me, but them pictures look nice..

Think they need to rename it though...  

Midway doesn't bring to mind German Uboats for me at least +)

Why are J2M raidens flying...shouldn't those be zekes?  They even call them zekes on their website.

Yeah, that is weird... I think because it a tech demo, they went with whatever aircraft/ships they had finished...

Just a guess.

Here is another download link for that video:
