A multiplayer shooter based on the new Unreal engine.
And it's free.

hehe I thought about posting this yesterday. Yeah you can sign up for it there and they'll send you the game CD. Looks pretty good though. Probablly start getting a bunch of Army of One stuff right a long with it though. But you can't beat a free game as long as it isn't total crap.

Any multiplayer game with guns, and people to kill, is a good game. With the exeption of WWII Online.

Yeah. Saw this at E3. Didn't seem all that interesting.
Edit: Of course, it is absolutely free, and if you sign up they'll ship it to your house.
*signs up*

It is indeed free, but if you sign up to get it, expect either calls from recruiters or a recruiter comming to your house. There was a thread on Madonion about this and the people that signed up ended up having a recruiter on their butts.

i already signed up to get a free copy. let em try and recruit me already been there so they OWE me a damn game at the least. heh.
worse comes to worse at least SOMEONE has finally done a M-60 ina game correctly.

The local army recruiter already knows me. Knows me personally. He also knows that I have no interest in the military, so he leaves me alone in that respect.
Mail - Don't really care. Just throw it away.
Email - Request removal from lists. They are required by law to do so upon request.
Calls - Same thing. Request that they cease. Required by law to oblige.

I got a call from a recruiter one time. I told him straight out that I had no interest what-so-ever of joining any military. He pushed and he pushed. Eventually I told him some story about a job in Arizona and that I was moving soon. That finnaly got him off my back and I never heard from him again.
If that story didnt work, I was gonna tell him I have a very severe case of herpes and its extremely contagious. 
Im just glad he didnt come out to my house.

I don't know about your states, but there was a no call bill passed in missour about a year ago, and if your name, address, and phone number is on that list, any telemarketer that alls you without your concent is breaking the law.
This includes I believe, recruiters. I've yet to get any army/navy/marine/airforce spam mail ever since I signed up for the list.
Posted by: Tecil
Yeah Idaho passed a similar law. Now our phone only rings when it is someone we actually know.

ya you know somethings up when its free, and then when you cant download it, you have to get a cd by mail, and phone apparently.
Posted by: Heathen
Do ya think the CD is the only thing you'd recieve in the mail?
Posted by: taco_fox
Wasn't your phone number an optional field? I didn't fill it out, and I didn't get any calls..
