I don't know if anyone here has played this game at all, but its the best online game I've played so far. (kind of the flawed reasoning for why I'm now getting broadband)

Its based on Battlefield 1942 engine, and is set in the Gulf War. You can be infantry like regular first person shooters , anti tank infantry, engineer, fly helicopters, jets, tanks, apcs, dirt buggies, etc.. My favourite is flying the Apache at low level and strafing other (human) troopers.

Its not uncommon to get 30 people having a battle (mostly capture the flag scenarios) on Gamespy on each of its servers.

Anyway thought I'd just let people know this is an absolute must-have.
 
i concur. i've been on a few LANs where there were like 40-50 people all playing Desert Combat on the same server. indescribable, you have to try it out for yourself. (voice communication is a must if you're playing online, it really adds to the game -- this practically goes for all team-based online games though)
