Anybody else excited for the new free [Battlefield Heroes](http://www.battlefield-heroes.com) that is supposed\* to be coming out in April. There are a few trailers on the site, and the graphics are cartoonish in contrast to the other realistic Battlefield games. It runs on the same engine as Battlefield 2142, so if game-play comes close I’ll be more than happy.

This [video](http://www.battlefield-heroes.com/videos/release-announcement) from the site gives a nice overview.  
\*The game has been delayed for over a year.

It looks like a lot of fun, I must admit. I just need to make sure I have a machine that can run it.
