Battle for the Pacific allows players to participate in some of the most famous battles in the pacific theater such as The Battle of Iwo Jima and The Battle of Corregidor.

Gameplay

Battle for the Pacific features a single player campaign and Multiplayer mode with a good amount of weapons to choose from including the American Thompson submachine gun and M1 Garand rifle to the Japanese Type 100 submachine gun and Type 38 rifle.

The first person shooter style of gameplay that Battle for the Pacific incorporates allows for gameplay that is similar to the Medal of Honor and Call of Duty series.

Single Player

The game features fighting in some of the most historic battles in the Pacific campaign, from the Battle of Wake Island and Guadalcanal to the closing days of Iwo Jima. While the PlayStation 2 and Wii versions have the player by his lonesome, similar to the early Medal of Honor games, the Microsoft Xbox 360, Sony Playstation 3, and PC version features more squad-based missions, with most all of the missions having two soldiers and an NCO by your side, with other soldiers helping out as well. The game seems to have large, lush environments, from the beaches to the jungle, However one noticeable aspect in the PS3, Xbox 360, and PC version is that the player can not wander too far off from the commanding soldier, or else the mission will be terminated. This limits free roaming and creates a more linear single player experience
