EA has officially announced Battlefield 1943, revealing that it will be available as a downloadable title on PlayStation Network and Xbox Live Marketplace, as well as PC.
"Battlefield 1943 is a new take on a blast from the past classic coming to life with brand new technology that we're eager to get into players hands," said Karl Magnus Troedsson, Executive Producer Battlefield Franchise, DICE.
GFB writes: "Warner Bros. Interactive released a bunch of new images to show off Taz and some of the action in Galactic Taz Ball for the Nintendo DS and Nintendo DSi."
There are twenty-four new screens in all that were added.
EA has recently released their 2009 Q4 and 2010 Q1 fiscal reports and the information provided has made Battlefield 1943 the best selling download only game on consoles to date.
That Dice focuses more on the BC and regular Battlefield series on the PC. Loved 1943, but loved BC2 and BF2142 much more.
New maps are what I need. This game is a beast and totally deserves the achievement.
Good to see their success.
But I found it interesting that it said:
"...along with EA becoming the #1 publisher on every platform except for Nintendo platforms. EA is the #1 third party publisher on those platforms however."
I guess that means that they took back the spot from activision? I guess thats good as Dead Space made me like EA enough, and Im not a big fan of activision lately. Take that KOtic.
kinda stopped playing after i picked up bad company 2. maybe i should hop back on if people are still playing.
Here's a very good video (if we do say so ourselves) showing off what I believe to be the 10 best games on the PlayStation Store at the moment. Enjoy!
I have been waiting for another true Battlefield game for quite some time. I just hope it isn't a slimmed down, chopped up version.
Forget about this...Bad Company 2 is listed as being made for PC - that's the real news.
anybody know?
No real info just yet. Its possible that it might just be a smaller game to test the waters with Downloadable games. I still think that downloadable games are still far off for now. Especially in the US. Takes hours to download 1 Gb for me.
I wonder what they're strip down to allow it to be a DLC for PS3 and 360.
I also wonder how much it'll cost. I'm guessing $19.99/1600 MSP.
