    Neat, thought it wasn't due out `til next month, but I'm not complaining. Another shooter! Just hope it's better than Operation Vietnam.

    More like Cannon Fodder for the PC (before the days of the PS1).

    I've been waiting for this one [​IMG]

    Yeah, it's pretty killer so far. Not great, but a great, guilty pleasure. It's like Metal Slug from a isometric perspective. Love the style.

    Bet the co-op could be a lot of fun.

    No one mentions where they get the name of the game, from the superior A ranked Team [​IMG]

    MY game sucks, I hate those type of brainless games, all you do is shooting like nut job, this game is pointless, if it's your thing, hay, more power to ya.

    Six-sided? Made of ice? With Q-Bert on them? What?

    That said, this does look fairly cool. Have to try it.
    I'm not sure what "squad-based" means in this context, but I'm probably just being dense.

    Hmmm... Game about these guys?

    Anyway, might be worth checking out at some point, if just to see what it's like.

    Already! Been wanting this game for a while (seeing its a Cannon Fodder rip off), not seen it listed anywhere for release, even the developers/publishers website says its out in February.

    Think I'll get my new DS this or next week, so much I've missed.

    Not played Cannon Fodder then?
