Video Game Reviews of Warship Gunner 2
Customer Review: Very fun - the naval equivalent of the Ace Combat series
Summary: 4 Stars
As a big fan of the original Warship Gunner, I was very happy to pick this version up. The menu screens are a little more streamlined than the original version, but still a bit quirky.
The premise of this game is of a world war in an alternate universe with the same level of technology as real-life Earth had in 1939. There is a fictional nation known as "Wilkia" which apparently comprises the lands around the periphery of the Sea of Okhotsk.
It is very similar to the original Warship Gunner in terms of style of play (you're a lone ship against the world) and has what is the most beloved feature of the Warship gunner series - the ability to customize your own warship. The battleships that you're able to build in the game fairly bristle with armaments that real-life battleships would never carry. The main differences from the original is the inclusion of submarines as a warship class as well as the addition of frigates, which in this game are basically larger destroyers which have more capabilities for electronic warfare. Aircraft carriers are still limited to very small numbers of planes, just as in the original, with the detriment that in this newer version, the planes are even more impotent in terms of being able to sink enemy ships. The original WG planes were more powerful, which partially made up for their small numbers. That is not the case with this game and it's a huge step backward.
The number of missions is increased as well, which adds to the fun.
