- Turn-based strategy with a twist: Simultaneous move and attack phases make the experience as intense and authentic as real-time strategy.
- Three campaigns, one for each faction, with increasingly challenging battle scenarios and objectives.
- Over 20 units and vehicles per faction including ground, air and naval units. Units gain experience in combat, dramatically improving their combat performance.
- Two-player versus multiplayer mode, including additional missions specifically designed for multiplayer battles.
- Easy-to-pick-up mission editor: Create and share your custom battlefields and battle scenarios to play solo or against another player.
- Full stylus control on Nintendo DS.
Looks good.

Damnit, thought it was gonna be a fps.. NOOOO.. They ruins it.. I hate turn based strategy.. Theres no enjoyment of you feeling like you killed someone or something by yourself.. (Like button mashing.. )
I think the console one was done pretty well, I like the whole approach they took. It's fresh and unique.
The DS version on the other hand, eh, looks sketchy, but I suppose I'll give it a chance. Don't disappoint me Ubisoft.

The DS - and I believe the PSP - version was made by the guys who created the Battle Isles series back in the days. I can't wait to get home and try out Endwar tonite, it certainly has potential.

It's a pretty good game.
The way you have your turns is interesting.
When you start, it is your "Move Phase". You move your units.
Then it is your attack phase. You select units and tell them what to attack. Then it become your move phase again, and so on.
However, this is where it gets interesting. When it is your move phase, it is your opponent's attack phase, and vice-versa.
When you make your moves, they don't take place straight away. Instead you end your phase and THEN your moves take place. Your opponent does the same with attacks. Attacks take place before moves, so when everything moves your units are attacked and then they move. The opposite happens with your attack phase.
This means that when you choose where your units will move, you have to think of what units will be attacked, and choose their position based on that.
For example, you might move a unit to an airport to heal because you think it might be crippled by the attack.

I'm wondering if I should try this or the PSP version, I think it's the same game (?) but it might work better with a larger screen since I never use the touch controls in advance wars.

@SylverReZ, in my experience, I wouldn't say I am an audiophile because to me MP3s seem fine, frequency cut off but good enough lol although in my laundry list of freak gifts... Is the ability to hear frequencies beyond what anyone else I have ever met... I max out hearing tests with shocked looks from the Drs, sad part is I can hear frequencies much higher.+1

@Psionic Roshambo, As somebody who has listened to music over everything, I prefer some good quality headphones that can output the sharpest audio. I listen to my music mostly with WAVE or FLAC files, with MP3s I can tell the difference straight away by the compression artifacts.+1 -

I mean I can tell the difference even with a high bitrate MP3 but I guess "it sounds good enough"

Plus studio quality MP3's do exist, they are just like 512Kbps and are huge ass files lol

@Psionic Roshambo, MP3s were designed to be as small as possible, so that they can be shared on the internet. WAVE files were more bigger in size and would take hours to upload back in the day.
