PcKiller...

Have you managed to get your lil hands on a public beta yet of this???

And I have an educational feeling that this is going to be even bigger than MOH:AA with far more players online then ever.

I have already found some bugs in this game.

1. It will mess up your desktop icons setup.

2. The sound, will at times drop out.

You've played the single and multiplayer demos and can't get enough. Now you'll be able to experience all the fury of World War II battle as Battlefield 1942 for PC-CD arrives at retailers nationwide on Saturday, September 14, 2002.

The complete game will feature 35 machines of war in 16 detailed maps from WWII's well-known battles: Kursk, Guadalcanal, Iwo Jima, Midway and more. Each of the maps will highlight a full range of war machines from heavy armored vehicles to high-flying bombing runs to deep-sea submarines.

So suit up and get ready for action, Battlefield 1942 arrives on U.S. shores next weekend... will you be ready for battle?
