When the first trailer for Battlefield 1943 released, we were instantly pumped for the game. Multiplayer shooters are fun, but DICE made the right call by including tons of explosions and dudes getting shot in the face in the game's debut trailer. Now, we're happy to report that the game will arrive on XBLA and PSN (1200/$15) sometime this June (PC gamers get it in September).
Battlefield 1943 features three different tropical locales: Wake Island, Guadalcanal and Iwo Jima, and gamers can play as either the US Marines or Imperial Japanese Navy in matches supporting up to 24 players.
I played the crap out of the original BF1942 demo, set on Wake Island. And I loved the full game when it came out, played and officered in a clan, played on "sniper only" servers, could routinely shoot Zeros out of the sky with my trusty Sherman and my rocket launcher. Never got much into the expansions or the newer ones though. Something about the way the first one played just clicked with me, and this looks like a return to form. I'll definitely be picking it up.
