Topic: Pearl Harbor: Red Sun Rising Impressions

Cheers guys. I'm hoping we can carry on the Trilogy, especially seeing as there's so much love for it!

This seems great. I'm wondering if is should just get the last in the series or all 3.

@Eprimav You guys are featured on the official site of Nintendo germany.

That's funny, because this game isn't even on the NA Nintendo Channel. I haven't checked it today, though, so it might have updated.

@Nintendo64, you beat me to it:) We are indeed, Bjorn was also interviewed by Nintendo. So for those of you wanting to know what he looks like...

I should be downloading this title here in about an hour or so.
I haven't purchased a flying game...ever, so I'm hoping I enjoy it.

*EDIT:!
I take that back, I purchased Star Wars: Rogue Squadron II as my first GameCube game, and really enjoyed it.

Ahh bless you CoffeewithGames, i look forward to hearing how you find it:)

Just got the game now. Best part is in free flight trying to go out of bounds, apparently all planes are equipped with remote self destruct mechanisms.

Also being able to land and do a Sunday drive by a military base or just look at the trees and (sometimes floating) buildings.

Good game, worth the buy, I mean come on, it's 7 bucks.

I hope the sequel, or sequels are some aerial maneuvers, at least one of them have online multiplayer and perhaps the option to control an anti-air turret, a naval ship or something in a few missions and though some people might protest it, it would be interesting to see the bombing run on Nagasaki and Hiroshima at least from a quasi educational perspective, course video games offend far more than recreating historic atomic bombings...

I'm assuming they'll be sequels right? Considering this thing is number 4 on the charts and you already have the engine and everything up and running for it. You're rolling around in dough now right? lol At least enough to fix your car or whatever.

Oddly, we don't actually know how the charts are calculated.

Nice points for Ep2 if we generate enough to go ahead with it. You should copyright them quick, or I'll steal them! Glad you're enjoying the game though Hardy83, it's always a buzz to hear from someone giving some positive spin!

If ur taking ideas for the next episodes, maybe add some pilots named after some NL users?

haha, I like that:) Could be a nice competition!

I think im already in the game. Though for the next episode, there should either be a Lady GaGa plane, or a plane customization thingo.

Bah, steal my ideas all you want. lol I'm not a game designer so these ideas have no use to me and I doubt I'll ever get a job in PR/Marketing in gaming in crap town Ottawa Canada to even suggest ideas like that. lol

Also it would be interesting to know how the top 20 charts are calculated, but considering how high you are, I'm guessing your first cheque will be pretty nice.

I second anti-air turrets and manning gunships. And whichever episode has online play, it'd be really cool to have a custom logo feature (ie paint your logo with the Wii remote).

There should be bonus mission or game mode in part 3 where you must drop atom bomb to Hiroshima or Nagasagi. There is target somewhere in ground and you get more poits if you get the bomb near the target . Of course the bomb is tricky to get to the target.

Less than 24hrs to go til AU and EU release, exciting times:)

@Hardy83, I do PR and I live in a place called Bolton in England. Not exactly a videogames mecca!

Okay, pull out your pen and paper eripmav.

This is a great game, and you made me turn on my Wii to play in over a week, so Kudo's. I really like all the comic menu stuff, it all looks so purrrtyy. Would be super awesome if you turned one of the sequels into a future war and made it all cel shaded cartoon graphics.

The only problem I have is the lack of an overheat bar. Your shooting till suddenly you get an overheat message. It would be nice if there was some way of telling when you overheat, especially for the shoot at all times people like me.

Also, is there an alternate path to each mission, cause the mission asks for me to defend a ship, and I fail, yet complete the mission later?

Anyways, good work.

@Aviator- When u keep holding the machine gun button, the screen will start to turn a redish hue. Eventually after it gets red enough, it will start saying "Overheat." Hope that helps.

@eripmav- I'd like to congratulate u once again at such n excellent game. Oh, and which guy are you in the credits?

Ahh, thanks for that.

I believe he's the PR guy listed, Dan Muir...and I will say, I think he's done an awesome job communicating with us on the message board! I play some more of the game last night, and I'm about to here in a bit again!
