Review: Battlefield 1943

ANY_CHARACTER_HERE

Wait, you’re telling me that this isn’t a retail release? This is an Xbox Live Arcade title? Yeah, I was surprised myself when I first saw the more than up to par graphic style of this World War II first-person shooter. So how can this be, you ask?

Well, Battlefield: 1943 is a very streamlined version of a multiplayer shooter; being that you only get four maps to play in; Wake Island, Guadalcanal, Iwo-Jima, and Coral Sea to be exact. The fourth map, Coral Sea, wasn’t originally included with the initial release, but was later added as an unlockable map once the community reached 43 million kills. 43 million, 1943, yada-yada, you get it right? Ok good. Now that we realize how clever that is, we’ll move on.
