It has been confirmed, the Xbox 360 version of War World will be released in 4 days on Wedsday August 29th.. To celebrate the Xbox 360 version of War World I will be hosting a special celebration game of War World on the PC. All are encouraged to join in this celebration as I feel it will mark a large turning point for Third Wave Games. Several team members may be able to join this battle as it will take place for only one hour. It will be morning in Australia, and 10-11 PM Night in the UK.
Following this battle I recommend those with Xbox 360s to wait intill 00:01 PST (12:01 midnight PST) later that night to buy the Xbox 360 version of the game and begin playing online. I am 100% sure there will be at least 8-16 players online with the Xbox 360 version within an hour of the game's release on Wedsday 12:00 am (midnight) PST. _________________

Less then 24 hours intill the Xbox 360 version is released. I hope you enjoy it.
I recommend the first players to buy the game start/join online games, as that is where the game is the most fun. Single player is just practice for the online as far as I am concerned . I recommend the first game being a Deathmatch. Capture the Flag, Bomb Assault, & Team Deathmatch require getting use to and if the other team doesn't know what they are doing the game can end in less then a minite. Team Deathmatch is normal but new players might shoot allies so again I recommend Deathmatch intill everyone understands how to play. _________________

It seems it was just announced last night that War World will not be coming to Xbox Live Arcade today. It seems it was delayed is because Microsoft is releasing a puzzle game today instead.

Sorry for getting your hopes up, but I was sure it would be this week as Microsoft said it would be released in August. Gusse they lied.
They are in two different genres, someone who is interested in a fast paced fps game like War World would not be interested in a puzzle game, and vice versa. _________________

I'm another 360 owner looking forward to this game. I belong to a group of older gamers (GeezerGamers.com) and I'm a member of a clan within that group that likes mech games. We've been together since Mechassault 2 and we play Chromehounds on a regular basis. Most of us have been playing mech games since Mechwarrior 1 and 2 and War World looks to be a great XBLA title.
Hope the release of this game isn't delayed too much longer. |

yes we have been a little quiet as we have been deep in development. War World XBLA is in great shape and is still coming to XBLA. At this point in time we cannot say exactly when. Ubisoft and Microsoft have control and will make the final decision when will be the right time to release War World. Obviously Microsoft wants to balance the type and timing of games that are released on XBLA. We hope it will happen soon. So stay tuned! _________________

Thanks JC.
BTW, any chance that "timing of games " has anything to do with MS developing Mechwarrior 5?
EDIT: barring that scenario, you guys are in a prime position to pitch them for a revival of the Multiplayer Battletech: 3025 project (look up wikipedia and other sites for info on what it was). I mentioned it awhile back but it would be a shoe-in for XBLA's first MMO game. |
