Anyone else been playing this?

Hippy and I have been having a few lan games of it, it's pretty good, the single player is quite good too.
it's built on the Company of Heroes engine by the looks, so the interface and controls are similar. Looks very nice, and would look better in directX 10 (but I'm running XP so of course it doesn't look quite so pretty)

Anyone else keen for some multiplayer games?

Hmmm does look like fun. Do you have to log in to some network server like steam or thq? Or can you just log on - find game - play ?

oh, you have to sign up to 'windows live' to play properly online :) that's the ghey part, but it's actually not too bad, once you have done that you can search for online servers.
It puts itself in Steam which is good because you get the updates via steam.
