411Mania: Military Madness Preview

Ramon Aranda: "You want to talk about old school turn-based strategy games? Then look no further than Military Madness. Yeah we've seen an O.G. version pop up on the Wii but Hudson is now remaking the original as a downloadable game for the Xbox Live Arcade, PlayStation Network and Nintendo's WiiWare. Being that it's a remake, the game features the same units, same maps and same gameplay as the original but with a 2009 makeover that improves on the graphics quite a bit. The game is played in 2.5 D while the battles themselves are played out in 3D. For those that never played Military Madness, here's the premise in a nutshell: You're a commander of the Union Army and you want to take back the lunar surface by beating down on the wretched Xenos."
