:O usually i'd agree with you, but I'm looking forward to Battlestations Midway. Sucks that it's been delayed. The game is cool because you're controlling entire fleets and squadrons in real-time. Then you can hop into various machines for an action game feel. Pretty awesome, IMO. WW2 is a good setting for this because modern fleet battles are too "beyond visual range". And instead of having hundreds of planes doing battle, you just have a few... which are shooting extremely powerful missiles from 50 miles away.
If you've ever enjoyed a Star Wars or Wing Commander space combat game, then Battlestations could be great. Watching hundreds of planes wade into massive flak, trying to line up torpedo and bomb runs on capital ships is awesome and quite unique to WW2.
