I think this is what you're talking about....

Yes that is the one!!! Looks like that game is available already although on PC/web browser?

I will get the 1943 thing today anyway as the demo thing is free. Will only buy it if many people on PS3 get it from here. Not played a BF game since 1942 on PC, but that cartoony heroes one looks good

BF Heroes was a huge let down when I played it. Just trying to get into a game is a pain.

PS3 User Database With Game Tracking

Depending on how the trial plays I should be getting this.

I should be picking it up too. If it's more in the same vein as Bad Company then it's a definite purchase.

£10 seems pretty pricey for a multiplayer-only game with only 4 maps though... no doubt they will try and extort more money from us with "expansion packs".

I think I'll wait for a price drop to buy it (and then only if it's really popular)... I have far too many other games waiting to be played right now!

I'll give the demo a try at least.

£10 seems perfectly fine. They really couldn't drop it any lower.

I'm pretty sure that Battlefield 2 only had 6 or 7 at release, and that was £35+, and multiplayer only.

Can't remember how much Warhawk was but it was more than a tenner and brilliant fun when it came out.

Hey RP, I'll will be purchasing BF1943 today

Robert1986 · 9 Jul 2009 at 17:11

Should be up any minute now.

fatherdougal · 9 Jul 2009 at 17:27

Up, if you use search to find it

Not really - the "couldn't" there should be a "wouldn't".

Take Wipeout HD for example - for just £2 more (£12 at release), you got a pretty extensive SP campaign, loads of tracks, online and local MP, extra modes like time trial and zone mode etc etc.

That was a well-priced game. BF1943 has an over-inflated price using it's Battlefield "pedigree" and bucketloads of hype to justify it. Sure I'll give the demo a go, but I certainly won't be paying a tenner for it as it stands...

Update is live

DLing both the demos.

Still waiting for MGS!!!

Robert1986 · 9 Jul 2009 at 17:36

^^ Cheap ass.

Downloading the trial now. Will have to see how well this plays on a console before buying.

ic1male · 9 Jul 2009 at 17:41

Will be interested to hear if the PS3 lot have as much gip with connection issues as XBox.

Well if we all buy it we'll get the 33 million global kills required to unlock the other maps!

ic1male · 9 Jul 2009 at 17:43

It's 43 million to unlock just one map, my good man. Dev reckons 10-14 days to do it. But I'd say a week.
