Darkstar One Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 With SC Global coming out in a couple of days, what will I be missing if I just get the new game and didn't pick up Pacific Theater? or vice versa? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill101 Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 The games use the same engine, but the actual scenarios differ enough to make both of them an enjoyable experience. The Global game provides a slightly different gaming experience, both are fun, but as you would expect, the Pacific Theater game covers that theater in more detail, plus it has numerous smaller scale scenarios covering individual campaigns, e.g. Iwo Jima, the battles for Burma, Okinawa, etc. I've been playing them both for some time now and I think that they're sufficiently different from each other that although there is some overlap, it isn't likely to make you think that buying one means you won't want the other. I know that I'm going to be playing both games for some time to come yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeaMonkey Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 I'm finding the 1.03 AI of PT is providing a refreshing challenge from either side, but especially the Japanese AI. Crank it up at "Expert + 2". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkstar One Posted December 24, 2009 Author Share Posted December 24, 2009 I'm also hoping that maybe they'll drop the price when the new game comes out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
