It's been a buzz in all the gaming magazines.
For Xbox that is.

I think it looks great.

Some people are destined to be disappointed, though, when they realize it isn't an FPS like they thought it was. It is and always has been an RTS.

I actually got more excited about it when I found out it wasn't an FPS.

I think the Live function is going to be cool. You can only get on it with one other player & instead of playing against the other person, you each command a squad & work together to acheive your mission.

OXM has a nice, large article on the game in the current issue.

One of the OXM discs a few months ago had a really sweet video with commentary demonstrating a number of the moves and tactics -- looked really great.

It's been all over the game magazines.

Doesn't seem like my cup of tea as I don't like tactical squad based shooters or RTS games.

I felt the same way until I saw the demonstration that was included on the OXM demo disc (#24).

I hate those kinds of games but I completely changed my mind after I saw the 2 different walk-thrus on the disc. Definitely worth checking out if you have the chance.

Cool, hopefully they'll put out a playable demo.

This looks like the greatest game ever. I hope it delivers, which the only way it will is if the A.I. is truely intelligent.
