From what I have heard, The History Channel has helped the developers get all of the historical aspects of the game correct and they sponsor it and thats it.This game looks really good (graphically). I caught the TV spot for it the other day.
My question is it actually made by the History Channel or are they just sponsoring it? As far as I know, the History Channel has never made a video game.
If the former is the case, I'd be worried about the gameplay elements...
This game certainly has alot of potential- hope it lives up to it.
