Review: Dragon Ball Z – Ultimate Tenkaichi (PS3)

For those of you that have some interest in trying out a fun tactical RTS game, Atari has released a multiplayer demo for their upcoming release, Codename Panzers: Cold War.  The demo will let players try out the Domination mode on the Isle of Hope map.  The goal is to see who can capture the nuclear device.  The demo can be played on a LAN or over the Internet, and will allow all use of equipment available on this map. 

The full game will offer players the ability to play missions in co-op, deathmatch or domination over 20 different maps.  The box shots show that the game is using Games for Windows Live for its multiplayer, but I will make certain tonight and update the story with my findings.  If you are interested in the demo, head over the the official website at www.codenamepanzerscoldwar.com to get the demo.  Click the link for the full press release.

Following the launch of the single player demo, the multiplayer demo for Atari’s forthcoming real-time strategy title Codename Panzers: Cold War is now available for free download via the game’s official website at www.codenamepanzerscoldwar.com.

With support for online and LAN play, the multiplayer demo showcases the Domination mode and features the Islands of Hope map in which the players are charged with seizing control of a nuclear weapon. Players will have access to the full range of units available in the multiplayer game, and will be able to capture several Points of Interest including a radar station, HQ and radio station, each of which affords special strategic and tactical advantages.

The multiplayer element of the full game features 20 varied maps and three gameplay modes: Domination, Co-op and Deathmatch.

Codename Panzers: Cold War represents the pinnacle of Cold War era conventional warfare including real world post-war heavy armor battles between heavy tanks like the American M103 and the Russian Troyanov. The signature Codename Panzers ‘Point of Interest’ system takes the gameplay beyond build-and-rush, while special urban warfare tactics and dynamic weather create even more gameplay depth and realism.

Codename Panzers: Cold War is scheduled to ship March 10th in North America and March 13th in Europe. For more information and to download the single player and multiplayer demos please visit the official website at www.codenamepanzerscoldwar.com.
