    The History Channel: Battle for the Pacific isn't necessarily an atrocious game, but it just isn't that fun and brings so very little to the table.
  2. Worth Playing

    The gameplay is poorly ported from a console to the PC, which seems like the wrong way to do things.

    Many of the A.I., both friendly and enemy, look the same. There are only a few different character models. They animate well, but at times they will get stuck in the scenery or just freeze.

    You're better off buying DVD's of History Channel shows. [May 2008, p.59]

    Ultimately, though, the biggest blow against the game is its brevity. You shouldn't have trouble clearing its single-player mode in two or three hours.
