Q. I heard this is an arcade game, is this true? A. Yes, it is a PSN and Xbox 360 Arcade game available via download only. Also it will be on the PC. Q. How long until it comes out? A. Summer 2009 for consoles and Autumn 2009 for PC.
For now ya coming to PC at some point but its supposed to be aimed at the hardcore battlefield players on the PC.
awwww snap. They just pwnd me. I was thinking about buying it, but couldn't find the link. I couldn't find the FAQ either lol.
I've been watching this, I just want it to be better than BF Heroes. More than 4 maps would be a huge bonus, heheh.
I been trying to connect to their servers on X-Box Live with a trail game all night they seem to have the usual EA/Dice problems with battlefield game launches. Going to give PS3 version a try tomorrow see if it works or not when it comes out. And its 3 maps until the community gets 43 million kills. They will probably release more as pay for DLC if they sell enough.
My understanding is that its not really a new game, but a remake of the popular BF 1942. It's also a Live Arcade title on the XBox, which implies the same.
Worked fine on the PS3 still haven't got it to work on the Xbox. probably not going to buy it though I can always put one of the PC versions I all ready have back on if I feel a need for a Battlefield fix.
Hmm... if a RL buddy of mine gets his PC up to par, then we (along with my bro) will be playing this.
Got until September for the PC version to come out.. This is only for Xbox right now.. Tho it actually doesn't look like it'll be a powerhouse on graphics.. Looks more cartoonish than the old 1942.
Yeah, then again they could always beef up the PC version and charge more than the $15 they're asking for the console versions.
True.. I'd probably buy it if it was 15 dollars can't see it being more unless more maps come with it..
I played this at a friend's house on his 360. It looked good, he was saying most of the maps were remakes of the 1942 ones, and since its DLC - it looks good for being able to download off arcade and play. I'm still playing BF2 though on the pc ;]
if you play bf2,witch I have 1800hrs. and still play it?why haven't you picked up arma2 ,its BF2 for next gen I love it. too bad Xen didn't give it a shot,some did ,I thought that a true fan of this game type ,would have got it,but I guess we're infantry only,arcade FPS Only????? fucking shame..guess I am a little bitter...ARMA2 is the best game,besides BF2,I compared every game to BF2 and finally theres one that can take over its spot,and isnt a wanna be military game like most others.ArmA2 is it for me. bf1943 meh....
Yeah, i'm a big fan of 1942 prolly the first FPS i comepletely enjoyed, along with the the mod Desert Combat. 1943 with be just that more amazing.
