Yes, before anyone else mentions it, it is very aparent they are ripping off advance wars.

The question IMO is if its done half-ass or not, and if they expand the concept further.

While i like the battle parts, the overhead parts are clunky, should have went with a 2d map background showing terrain and 3d objects on top f the map.

Looks like AW minus the personality.

Is every military turnbased strategy game going to be called a AW ripoff now?

Why not?

Every platformer is calling a Mario ripoff by certain fans. When it's your only point of reference, what else can you do?

It's the same with games like True Crime, The Getaway, etc. where we can definitely tell they got their inspiration from GTA.

I just don't think we'd be seeing Brain Training PSP, that f'ed up Animal Crossing-like PSP game, and now this by Sony if they weren't nearly as popular on the DS.

Looking forward to this, but curious as to why whenever I click a screen shot at the official web site it pops up images of Everquest for PSP instead.

I think the designs are a bit uninspired, but that's not how you should judge a military strategy game I guess.

Looks fantastic. Easily one of the best looking games on the system. Reminds me of Total Anihilation (I know I spelled that wrong) for some reason.

Well... it was heralded by PSM as "Sony's Advance Wars" after all. Seems even the Sony faithful can sense where inspiration comes from.

That said, it want it! Who's making this exactly?

 

[Wollan]

A realistic looking AW with online multiplayer? Sold.

 

[Bigfonzie]

Now all we need is Sony to twist Rare's arm a bit to get Diddy Kong Racing! the mariocart killarzzzoorrrz..
