May 15 appears to be one of the weakest release dates we've seen in many weeks, with only a handful of titles scheduled to hit stores. Thankfully, one of those games is BattleStations Pacific, the sequel to Eidos' well received BattleStations Midway. The sequel features the same multi-vehicle combat and is once again not for action junkies. If you like your WW2 games to be high on tactics give this one a look, otherwise you might find Pacific's complexities a little too much to get to grips with.
Battlestations Pacific - Xbox 360 and PC
And the rest…
Namco Museum: Virtual Arcade - Xbox 360
Rock Revolution - Xbox 360,
Sports Island 2 - Wii

In seriousness, though, I hope that game delivers. It could turn out to be a really nice surprise gem amongst that other lot, and perhaps, even this month's releases in general. In fact, I thought it was the week after, but instead, the retailers say otherwise.

I've heard that Rock Revolution is supposed to be terrible!
