Battalion Wars Critic Reviews

GameCube Advanced
Sometimes gameplay can feel slightly repetitive, and sometimes managing all the units on screen can be more challenging than it should be. In fact, this is probably the number-one-most-challenging thing about the game....read the complete Battalion Wars review at GameCube Advanced
Armchair Empire
The control aspect takes a bit of practice and some of the longer, tougher missions take a bit of patience to replay a few times to find the best points of tactical advantage, but Battalion Wars succeeds on being both an action game and a game of...read the complete Battalion Wars review at Armchair Empire
Worth Playing
While perhaps too Saturday-morning to capture the imagination of hardcore real-time strategists, Battalion Wars, existing as it does between playful and dramatic, warlike and dopey, feels at home on Nintendo's console....read the complete Battalion Wars review at Worth Playing

and dramatic, but never overwhelms the ear or drowns out the sometimes hilarious notes your superiors insist on giving you all mission long.

If you want to pick the enemy apart little by little, those tactics works rather well. If you'd rather make things more interesting, and, for instance, lead a gung-ho frontal assault (if you can pull it off), you can do that as well....read the complete Battalion Wars review at GameSpy
GamePro
Battalion Wars eliminates RTS-anxiety with simple controls and a gameplay view that places you right into your fighting force. You lead as one of the attacking soldiers and learning how to command your units is a snap....read the complete Battalion Wars review at GamePro

There's a lot of potential here, unrealized because technical limitations doom the game to single player only....read the complete Battalion Wars review at Nintendojo

The chief problem with Battalion Wars is the AI, or more specifically the lack thereof. Units will do exactly what they are told, to a fault, oftentimes standing firm and getting peppered with enemy fire instead of moving to safer ground....read the complete Battalion Wars review at eToychest

Unfortunately, Battalion Wars fails horribly in the replay value department. While it is a fun game to play, it isn’t exactly enough to make you play the campaign over again....read the complete Battalion Wars review at N-Insanity

The action-oriented portion of the game works better than the strategic portion, which is hampered by a control scheme that’s too simple to provide enough depth. The game’s is also too short....read the complete Battalion Wars review at Planet Gamecube

Comments: It's always hard to find a good strategic experience for a console. However, with Pikmin and Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance, the big N seems to be pulling the right strings with the GameCube. Battalion Wars is no different, in that sense....read the complete Battalion Wars review at Nintendophiles

The strategic elements that are firmly in place seem to be working against the action elements, when they should be working together: that is to say, it's difficult to be both General and Private in the same fight....read the complete Battalion Wars review at 1UP
