Battle 360

Hi all, I was just wondering if anyone has started to watch the new show on the history channel called Battle 360. If you missed it they have the full episode on their website, I think this is something you all should check out. I think you will enjoy it as much as I did.

I've been suspending my SH4 patrol every Friday night for it.

Interestingly, last Friday night they were interviewing "Flash" Gordon, one of the Hellcat pilots from the Big E on the show. The following day I was reading "Clash of the Carriers," an excellent book about the Battle of the Phillipine Sea and he was mentioned several times in it.

Yeah I saw it I watched Bloody Santa Cruz episode. Great stuff. CG a bit better than Dogfights.

I've tried watching it, but it seemed to me that they kept using the same animation clips over and over. Kind of annoyed me.

Other than that, It's a great show!

Great show!

Here's real footage of an attack on the Enterprise.

Music is a little strange for the video I think.

Just a little strange...

Neat footage, though.

Just watched that video, very strange music for what the video was showing but great footage and surreal.

That show may not be correct in every aspect but watching and getting to hear the actual vets of Big E is always priceless. Hurry up with that Admirals Edition Matrix Games!!!

GREAT show, I catch it whenever I can (which sadly isn't often enough.

Battle 360 is the reason I came back to SH4. Seeing all those CG ships made my trigger finger itch.

Oh, and Dogfights has better CG. :p
