Battlefield Heroes

As some of you may know, a new, completely free of charge Battlefield game is being released at early 2009. The game is a cartoon style shooter set in WWII. The game will be free to download at www.battlefield-heroes.com.

I'm quite sure that it will work on all of your computers without that many framerate issues. The game will be alot like the previous battlefield games but with alot more humor implemented. Even the trailer is hilarious:



They even made it possible to sit on the plane's wings so you won't have to struggle trying to lay down on the wings like in previous games. This could become one of our new favourite shooter lan games (after Pirates, Vikings and Knights).

After seeing that video you might think it's third person only, but according to wikipedia its also first person so no need to worry about that.

Also according to wikipedia, here are some of the achievements:

Abilities are special powers that each player gets when they level up. Known abilities at this time are Grenade Spam ability (allows 15 grenades to be thrown at a time), I Eat Grenades ability (absorb grenades and heal the player), Blasting Strike ability (Flings any nearby tanks, jeeps and infantry into the air), Life-Points Boost, and Incendiary Ammo.[4]

Healing is by a 'blast heal', a soldier ability that heals the player and any friendlies nearby. Players also have a bandage which restores less health and only works for your own character. There is no medic class for this reason.

Battlefield Heroes also uses the Play4Free system by EA that will release more free games in the future.

If you want more information, here are the scanned pages of this game from Pelit magazine:
