Battlestations: Pacific

haven't checked any reviews on this but how is it? I've seen it in the store this weekend and it does seem kind of interesting.
 
Reviews are middle of the road really, Metacritic has it at a 76 out of 100 atm. Sure, it's a bit arcadey, but I'm liking it.
 
Some are short, some are longer. I've only played a few campaign missions, most of my time is MP.
 
We REALLY need a new version of Fighting Steel or the Great naval battles series out. Was fun times with those...
 
I downloaded the demo but couldn't get into it. I guess I was expecting something different, but since I never played Battlestations: Midway I didn't have anything to compare it to so I thought it would be like Heroes of the Pacific.
 
I played it. Just doesn't appeal to me. You know what we need? A brand new, graphically beautiful, extremely long and in-depth Wing Commander game.
 
I rented it on 360 and I'm having a hell of a time with the controls. Overall I really like the game - it's just the whole control scheme seems really convoluted.

While controlling individual units, is there a way to target (and by target I mean set it as your primary target) an enemy unit that's under your crosshair? The way it is now I have to constantly hit the A button to cycle through every enemy on the field.
