The Saturday thrill-off continues with a video of Eidos Hungary staffers talking about historical accuracy in upcoming war thing, Battlestations: Pacific. Watch it on FileFront.

There’s some game footage in there, as well as suitably grainy film from the War.

Bombs, Japanese people, planes blowing up, that sort of thing. “Q1 2009″ for PS3 and 360, according to Gamespress.

Eidos has put out two new trailers of Battlestations: Pacific, one showing the American campaign and the other detailing things from the Japanese side.

Watch them both on Shacknews. Game’s out on PC, 360 and PS3 in February.

After the link. The second in Eidos’s multi-faceted war game lets you play as either the Japanese or the Americans over 28 missions. Look OK, actually. In the works for PC and Xbox 360. Features troop landings, apparently. This is very important.

Take a look. No release date as yet.

Eidos confirmed four more games for E3 overnight, including the apparently amazing Tomb Raider Underworld. Keep up with all the games you can expect to see at the show on the IGN E3 List. It really is the easiest way.

Other Eidos titles confirmed were:

• Battlestations: Pacific (PC, 360)
• Just Cause 2 (PC, PS3, X360)
• Monster Lab (Wii)
• Tomb Raider Underworld (PC, PS3, X360)

Eidos has confirmed a new Battlestations game, says this, titled Battlestations: Pacific, to release on PC and 360

The original, Battlestations: Midway, was all about being able to use multiple verhicles – planes, ships, etc – in the Pacific theatre of WWII. As the new title suggests, the second affair is no different, this time reliving the battles for control of Okinawa at the end of the War.

You’ll be able to play as either the US or Japanese forces in this one. No release date as yet.
