Warhammer: Battle March For The Xbox 360 Game Review
September 14, 2008 | Filed Under Game Reviews | No Comments
Real time strategy is here in its newest avatar as Warhammer: Battle March. However, the controls are not the best there are. This game is much like it’s predecessor on the PC. The fussing over the gamepad kills the enjoyment, though. This game could have been the trendsetter in tabletop warfare if not for the unwieldy controls. You can play as the evil Hordes of Chaos invaders, the Empire troops or Greenskin tribes.
There is deep and thorough attention to detail. However, there is a lack of depth in the campaign. Linear missions involving scenarios like guiding the army, buying reinforcements, getting troops blessed at temples, buying magic swords etc. The stories are not well developed. Aside from the opening clip that is stunning, the mission introduction is bland.
The battlefield is what this game is about. Winning battles is quite complicated. You can’t custom craft armies in this one. This game is better played on the PC where you can custom craft armies. The backdrops are realistic. Overall the PC version of the game is the best. The better controls on the PC and the better selection of online opponents makes this so. If you really want this game on the Xbox, it is worth $56.99
