Not BoP exactly but it's a good vid and some nice publicity for the console version.

It's interesting hearing a pure 'gamers' view on the game... As opposed to all the Simmers opinions that we normally get.

They're having fun with it which is the best advert for it..

Does anyone know if WoP is available as a download or is it just hard copies?

I'm tempted because it just looks tighter(?) than BoP.

I still want to wait for the disc (if it's coming? :confused: )

Pretty amazed the demo ran so well on my four year old PC.

Yeah it doesnt seem to be that taxing on the PC hardware front. I put it on mine and got very smooth performance at 720p with maxed graphics.
The Steam version is limited to 3 installs which is pretty poor. I would rather get a disk version if it doesnt have this harsh DRM
That was a good video. Those guys trying to land and take off were hilarious

If you decide to get the full wop let me know. We can go kick the crap out of some pc users on team battle!

Was your dead one a fat ps3? You will be surprised by how quiet the slim is. Only issue I have with it is headset pairing takes a lot longer

Yeah it was, the fat b'stard.. And the slim is nice and quiet, a little whiny for my liking, sounds like an angry wasp now instead of an AC-130.

If it's only the drive winny you should be able to copy the data across via ethernet. There's instructions on the ps3 site

Well either of those are better than the 360 spin dryer sound. My sons 360 is on bedroom floor and we can hear it in living room downstairs

Yep, the 360 certainly is a wonder of modern technology.
