I've had trouble with EA before.
Anyway, all I know is that I've been playing the Xbox Live demo and loving the hell out of it. I don't usually go for the squad-based shooters (Rainbow Six 3 was an exception because of the online), but this one has really caught my interest. It's probably the closest I'll get to the middle east without being drafted.
Definitely picking it up when its released on the Xbox and Xbox360.
