The battle for Wake Island using the engineer rifle, part 1 on Let's Play Battlefield 1942. "PACIFIC. The Japanese army considers switching to a semi-automatic rifle, as the Americans did with their M1-Garand. However, leadership is skeptical. As a trial run, the Japanese invaders of the tiny American outpost at Wake Island will use the new rifle type and report back with the results."

A1R5N1P3R playing Battlefield 1943. This is part 1 of a 2 part video. Even with it's flaws, the EA servers, the headset glitch, Battlefield 1943 - for what it is - is still worth the $14.99, it's almost sad that EA managed to salvage and defend a title by pricing it accordingly. Conversely, I'd pay $1.99 for a patch that fixed the headset bug, that's even sadder still. This game would actually be a blast with communication, and if only more of my console buddies were up on PC enough to know about Ventrilo, the problem would be solved =( Battlefield 1943 is a multiplatform first person shooter made by developer Electronic Arts for Playstation3 and Red Ring of Death 360, available (to the best of my knowledge) as DLC only for only $14.99usd. A1R5N1P3R, while playing EA's Battlefield 1943 on A1R5N1P3R's Sony Playstation3, filmed this gameplay footage off of A1R5N1P3R's Toshiba 37" HD LCD TV, using A1R5N1P3R's Sony HDR-XR100 Handycam.

AV-8B Harrier Demonstration VMA-211 "Wake Island Avengers" 2009MCAS Miramar Airshow MCAS Miramar Miramar, California Friday October 2, 2009 IN THIS VIDEO, this AV-8B Harrier is put through its paces in a demonstration over MCAS Miramar. You will get to see vertical landings and a vertical takeoff in this demonstration, as Runway 6L/24R is constructed primarily of concrete. The aircraft came from VMA-211, the Wake Island Avengers, who are based at MCAS Yuma, Arizona. The callsign of this aircraft was WAKE 11. Also, take note of the callsigns of the demo pilot and the callsign of the Harrier pilot on the announcer's stand with Rob Reider. I apologize for any bad color and/or vertical lines or American flag intrusion that may or may not be in this video. Unfortunately there were American flags that got in the way of the video during some critical parts of the videos and I have had some camera trouble throughout the weekend. If you are interested in purchasing DVDs of specific aircraft and/or of airshows, interested in anything and everything related to airshows (where the jet teams will show up, all airshow performers, airshow reports from airshows I have attended, previews of airshows I will be attending, etc.), a much more easier to navigate "version" of all of my videos, and/or everything there is related to aviation - including spotting guides to my favorite airports and military bases and aircraft factfiles, please take the time to check out Steve's Airshow World at www ...

Part 1 of Wake Island on the Axis side. "PACIFIC. The Japanese invasion of Wake Island has failed, bringing a sense of joy and relief to the defenders of the remote American outpost. But it will be many months before the recovery of America's naval power in the Pacific can offer them safety from another Japanese assault. Japanese high command has determined the last invasion failed due to a lack of bravery on the part of the soldiers, not because of bad planning on their part. To prove it, they will send another invasion force of identical composition."

An Air-Raid setup I coded up in my spare time for Battlefield 1942. This was inspired by the Air-Raid from Battlefield 1943. This mod is running from within a standalone modified version of Wake Island. (It's under a different name, so no need to replace the original map.) The only problem right now is that it doesn't work in Multiplayer, and Singleplayer is only semi-functional. However, that may be changed some time soon. Once that's fixed, I'll release it publicly. I also forgot to add that launching the air-raid also triggers an air-raid siren at each flag, but you just can't hear it because you're out of range in the planes when you spawn them, but those on the ground will hear it. Special thanks to FLaMiN for testing. Find us at www.is82.com Home of the Interstate 82 mod for Battlefield 1942.

It occurred to me that only the official EA version of the Wake Island trailer seems to be available on Youtube so here is the "original" version before it got passed through the necessary licensing stage. It's more just for personal archive purposes, but we like to share :P I know it says Director's Cut, but it doesn't actually contain any extra scenes traditionally associated with that particular title, so don't bother looking for them. But for lack of a better universally recognised label it technically is an editor's cut; the version of the project before the final edit was made for public release.

Here's part 1 of my gameplay video for the new game Battlefield 1943. It came out last week on Xbox Live and the Playstation Store and costs $14.99. The game is online only and there are three classes to choose from: Infantry, Scout, and Rifleman. The goal is to capture all of the flags on each map and kill the other team. You plas as either US Marines or the Japanese Imperial Navy. There are three maps: Wake Island, Guadalcanal and Iwo Jima. The map that I am playing on is Wake Island. Please comment rate and subscribe. More videos to come!
By request here is a sniping tutorial teaching you how to put bullet lead on a shot, how to find a good spot, and how to make sure you are not killed. This tutorial goes in depth with some tips and tricks to make you a better sniper. This is probably one of my better gameplay videos. I also show one of the best sniping spots on wake island for when the airfield has the most fighting going on in it. If you like this video subscribe as I am going to be uploading many more bf1943 videos and possibly a montage in the next few days.

Infantry gameplay on Wake Island. I capture a couple flags and use various vehicles in the video such as Jeeps, Tanks and Air Raids. Although my tank use is decent at best the jeep and Air Raids in this video are pretty decent. In this video I show all the Infantry's weapons such as the Wrench, the RPG, and the SMG. The audio in this video is greatly improved from my Scout/Sniper video as I found a better way to record quality audio with my capture card. As always Subscribe to my channel as ...

Robert Hunt, the subject of a new book entitled WE WERE PIRATES: A TORPEDOMAN'S PACIFIC WAR (Naval Institute Press, Fall 2009), describes watching the Japanese bombardment of Wake Island from his submarine, the USS TAMBOR; a bomb strike that damaged his sub, then entering Pearl Harbor days later, viewing the smoking destruction from the bow of the TAMBOR as it made its way through debris toward the Pearl sub base. From an interview included on the DVD, WE WERE PIRATES. See www.robertschultz.us and Amazon.com.
When the Wake Island map came out for 2142 the loading music struck me! it was a rock version of the 2142! dont get me wrong the guys Sir Community did a great job! but i wanted to have a go at makn a rock theme (not saying mine is, though i personally prefer it lol) The audio was created by myself, i acknowledge that the songs motif is intellectual property of the Battlefield Series by Electronic Arts and no Infringement is implied by this video. Comment and Subscribe :D Enjoy!...
