Scarface: The World is Yours System: Wii Developer: Radical Entertainmentįirst things first. Speaking of multiplayer, you're looking at drop-in, drop-out eight on eight, complete with very Battlefield-esque roles that players will need to assume in order to work as a smoothly oiled military machine. In multiplayer, players can even pool their tactical aid resources to go for an early nuke. Tactical aid opens up war-turning offensive capabilities like drop-in artillery, carpet-bombing and the almighty nuke. For one thing, units level up, and you can earn tactical aid in various ways - chiefly by eliminating enemy units and providing support. Take that you commie Nazis! The player is rewarded in other ways for kicking butt on the battlefield. At level 3 for instance, you'll have anti-aircraft abilities. Better still, the more units you have occupying each command point, the greater the defences that will build up to bolster your force. Not only do you want to avoid sitting around twiddling your thumbs, waiting for your opponents to come calling, but you're going to have a hard time capturing the all-important command points unless you can position units at each of the relevant perimeter points. Of course, throwing your units away is still a poor strategy. Credits recharge too, so if you send a bunch of helicopters on a futile kamikaze mission, after a little while you'll be able to order up some more. Instead, WiC has a credit system that lets you order up units at any time provided you've got the cash. Forget resource management, there is no 'early game' in World in Conflict where you're building forces and working through a tech tree. In short, this is action-first RTS gaming with a focus on immediacy. World+in+Conflict+-+yes,+it's+an+RTS.+And+yes,+you+can+push+that+big+red+shiny+button. Imagine the bastard stepchild of Battlefield 2142 and The Outfit with a heavy RTS twist and you'd be on the right track. With most RTS games I'm already nodding off while waiting for my first units to trundle off to mine nose goblin gold or whatever they do. I'll be honest with you - I know that the RTS genre is one of the most popular on the planet, but it really takes something a bit different to get me excited about an RTS title. We've already gone nuts on this game, with single player impressions, multiplayer impressions and the news on the NATO faction, and there's a good reason why.

World in Conflict System: PC Developer: Massive Over the next couple of weeks we'll revisit some of the most impressive titles with more in-depth Aussie coverage. What follows are my impressions of the titles on show (that aren't under embargo) with links to any other coverage that the U.S. a day of gaming, with a host of developers and publishers on hand to take us through their games and answer any burning questions. That's a fair bit to get your head around. San Francisco isn't just a picturesque city it's also the birthplace of the hippie movement, the keeper of American counter culture, the bastion of left wing ideologies and car chase central. Oh well, there are far worse places to arrive in before you leave.
Where was my ability to freeze time and sneak into first class for some decent food and drink? Or how about letting me rewind my way out of several remarkably awkward attempts at conversation with the attractive brunette in the seat next to me? Hell, why can't I just throw a chrono grenade down at my feet, creating a fourteen hour time stop bubble to ensconce myself in for the flight? Radical experimental technology from the future - you've failed me.
Sure, I could stop and rewind time when it came to video on demand, but that was the limit of my powers. Not that I felt very much like Colonel Michael Swift (bad name yeah? Don't stress - they've changed it) heading over to San Fran. I was, after all, heading over to an international Sierra event to see a raft of games, not least of which was TimeShift.
It's always a little disconcerting to touch down in San Francisco before you left Sydney, but for this trip in particular it was oddly fitting.
