I posted up some quick caps on our screenshot gallery (scroll towards the bottom)

Was a bit hard to capture them all since I had to re-start the trailer for some reason whenever I had paused it.
Morgoth Bauglir:
Yay!
His Dudeness:
Very nice... Fall isn't that far away.
_Freek:
If they make it that is ;)
icewarrior:

Alindur:

Actually EA likes to pump games out. I think they will make a 2008 release.

WOW that video was amazing. Thos graphics were good and the gameplay looks like tons of fun.
_Freek:
Im betting very late 2008 or early 2009. BfME1 and 2 were both a bit rushed so a delay would only make the game better.
icewarrior:
I think it will be 2009. They will release Red Alert 3 first to get really good sales and when it dies down at bit in sales they release conquest.
zach:
But Red Alert 3 and Conquest arnt in competing markets. One is an rts and one is a fantasy fps.

IF it is delayed it wont be because of Red Alert.
Durrh:
Awesome...I'm a fanboy all over again.

I don't see how they can screw this up, but...damn you EA!
zach:
Yea its gunna be great.
icewarrior:
there both EA titles and there both very big games.

I know there not the same genre but it could happen in some shops.
TokyoBlade:
It looks good.... But since this is an EA game, it will be rushed out by the end of the year and be very buggy (and on another note about it being EA: The PC version will be crap... why? Because of that stupid new security thing...
zach:
If you are saying they may compete for space I doubt it. There are plenty of older and crappier titles they can remove. Plus if a game store is That low on space then they must not have much room.
_Freek:
They will only look at genre titles when they make a decision.

What kind of BS is the security stuff. That has got to be infringing on our rights in some way.

I know, but if you get the PC version of Conquest you will HAVE to put up with it (ggnore Freek :P).
_Freek:
Lucky I got my PS3 then. Its the same BS Vista has, where you can only install it so many times, and then have to call MS support and tell them why you need to reinstall.

At any rate, this won't combat piracy. Crackers will find a way around the protection after a few weeks and then even more measures need to be taken. And guess what? People reinstall their games a LOT. Maybe they lose interest for a while, remove the game but want to play again a year later. Or they get a new harddrive or lose their old one.

Also seems like the game would need to connect to the web to store this info. Seems rather easy to crack...
zach:
Yea I have probably reinstalled BFME 2 about 20 times.
