New Pacific Theatre FPS announced

New WWII FPS was annonced 2 days ago: "History Channel: Battle for the Pacific". Publisher is Activision (maybe Activision Value) and developer is Cauldron, Slovak's studio what have been on my good side long time. BTW, Cauldron is also developing "Soldier of Fortune : Payback" right now and both games should see a release in november.

sry, but u are a bit wrong. Civil War (i liked this game!) used developer Cauldron's own engine called CloakNT. It has powered previously FPSes Chaser and Gene Trooper (great sci fi shooter).

Call of Duty ran on Quake 3 engine, CoD2 used "Heavily modified" Q3 engine.

I belive that both BotP and SoF3 will run on updated CloakNT.

Activision Value makes budget games. That means U probably can get the game cheap, in states the regular price is 20$ (ok, 19,99 :D). But... u soon understand why the game is cheap! Short SP, lame MP if at all, not the best story, graphic, sound and voiceacting etc. Sure, some games can be fun, like Civil War, but as there are almost no marketing behind budget games then there are little chance them to get popular.

Doesn't matter for me as i play ALL FPSes i can get my hands on. But I'm maniac too. :D And I also know U have a plenty of budget games on your collection so U may found a place for BotP. But all i want to say that just a case don't hype it yourself to much. Dissapointment is easy to come. But MoH Airborne was fantastic IMHO.

Looks interesting. Will be good to play a WW2 game that isn't set in Europe.

I though Pacific Assault was pretty decent, just a shame about the various bugs.
