Publisher: EA Games

Available from tomorrow (8th July) on Xbox360 and thursday (July 9th) on PS3 comes DiCE's Battlefield 1943, and features 3 maps playable from the start, Wake Island, Iwo Jima, Guadalcanal and after 43 million community kills per format, the 4th and final map, Coral Sea. The gameplay features around 24 player multiplayer on land, sea and air.



The game itself uses the Frostbite engine, the frankly stunning engine from Battlefield: Bad Company.

Battlefield 1943´s Frostbite game engine allows for practically total destruction of all environments. That means that you can level almost anything you encounter in the game - from airplanes to buildings, bunkers, vehicles and navy vessels. Take aim, fire and watch the fireworks as your enemies' cover and heavy weaponry explode to little pieces! Use the destruction to your tactical advantage as you blow a new "door" in a building to flank the Japanese bucked down inside, or clear a path through the trees for a better line of sight to the action.

Is anyone else getting this? I have already bought my points and I know Dunketh said he would be. Hopefully we can get a good group together of gamers here, that would be awesome.

For those wanting to buy 2100 point packs for Xbox360, I just ordered mine today from http://www.live-codes.com/ using the voucher "FRUGALGAMING" for 50p off and the code arrived within 30 seconds of checkout, which is impressive.
