    Today the XBox 360 version was released. I am downloading it now, apparently it is 3 maps with a destructable environment.

    I got 2 free copies at E3 this year and can not wait.

    Anyone else looking forward to this game?

    Meh, I hate modern day and WW2 warfare games. Totally turn off by weapons technology in that time period.

    I totally agree with that, but since that version is not out until September, this will have to do.

    My problem is that I like cool weapons, armors and vehicles in my games. WW2 just doesn't do it for me. But I like the alternative WW2 type of games such as Return to Castle Wolfenstein.

    There are tons of cool weapons available in WW2, the first jets, rocket powered planes, rockets, multiple types of tanks, flame throwers, WW2 had huge leaps in technology....

    I am downloading the demo right now. I usually hate WW2 games. COD2 was the last one I remember liking. Since then, they all seem to be the exact same. I play Call of Duty 4 the most just cause I think Modern warfare is the most fun.

    Yeah, but that's still nothing compared to today (or alternate-reality type of things).

    I'm sure you can understand how tons of people feel WW2 is 'old' nowdays... CoD4 sold way better than CoD5 for a reason. The setting.

    I'll still try this though.

    But like I said. I don't like weapons base on our history. I preferred a creative design or functionality of a weapons or an alternative of a guns, vehicles ect. in my games. It's like me playing Gran Turismo with cars from the 80s.

    It's a shame because there are like one gazillion ww2 titles that I would love to play for the PC.

    I've always heard this so I recently picked up Battlefield 2142 for my computer and tried it out. However, I really did not like it. I prefer the joystick to clicking. It may be more accurate, but I like pulling the trigger on the the controller :)

    Can we get a decent future warfare game with no alien invasion or etc...

    Perhaps a COD type set in 2050 with weapons creavitity of Resistance and GeOW. Just plain old humans killing humans with advanced weapons and no storyline whatsoever, no geopolitics, no energy wars, no evil corporation takes over the world. Wars are just that people killing each other for no good reason.

    Would love a scenario of a post nuclear world with guns blazing everywhere and you kill anyone in sight. Get to make factions and raise armies to fight other militia. No USA, No Russia, heck no countries at all just a bunch of small groups killing each other. Could do it online based and the clans could recruit more players and create a massive army before you now it.

    ^^^^^
    I've been waiting for something like that



    Anyway, this game is actually pretty cool. Everything is destrucable, you can fly planes, tanks, etc. I usually hate tanks online, but they are pretty easy to destroy.

    Bought it this afternoon, but the servers have been overloaded. Plan to play with a bunch of friends in the near future.
