Oh soz, misread your post. The 404 message is browser related, ironically the ps3 browser doesn't like their competition page, so try on a pc and it should work fine.
 
I've not seen anything like that. You're in your group of 8? but are aware of other squads. This is how they're keeping the lag down, by only showing you the parts of the battlefield you're involved in. You can only hear your squadmates and squad leader. The squad leaders can communicate with each other and another higher ranked officer.
No, he was right, it slowly culminates into an epic 256-man finale.
I cannot wait to come over that hill for the first time...

In a way, the concept is very simple. Zipper takes that scary number of players, breaks it down into something friendly and familiar - squads of eight facing off in 16-player struggles for an objective or two - and then builds it up again. 16-player skirmishes segue smoothly into 32-player firefights as squads converge. Then 32 players become 64 as attackers and defenders move on from subsidiary to primary objectives. Then you look over a hill, or a building, and see the mirror image of the battle you're fighting on the other side of the map. Then it happens again.
 
Wow, it's probably a good thing my Katamari hasn't arrived early, otherwise with this, plus the PES 2010 demo out later, my gf would be a complete PlayStation widow!
 
That's great news, I'm glad they're doing something about it!
I'm away all next week, so this way I might be able to play the game this week, instead of when I got back! :D
 
Mine's maxing out my O2 connection, getting about a meg a second.
Won't be able to finish it though, I need the PS3 for Play TV when my gf gets back from her run in a short while.
I'll probably see you all on the battlefield tomorrow night though! :D
