You can check out the first video (the second is the same but in PG) where Takedown has received enough funding for the alpha. If you are not familiar with Serellan AKA Christian Allen, he is responsible for many of the tactical shooters out there like Rainbow Six, SWAT, Halo and Ghost Recon. He has already had some very savvy developers sign on from Red Storm, Microsoft, Ubi and others to really make this happen.

Keeping a close eye on this one as well as GRFS that will be launching in a month.

EA CEO John Riccitiello On Gaming Microtransactions

I know our beloved BF series had officially ended on October 2, 2006. This is when EA paid $23.9 million to acquire DICE.
2006 was also the year BF2142 was released, the last truly PC based game from DICE.

The state of the BF series has steadily declined for the PC players since EA got their crooked hands on the game. This speech is proof of their greed.

This is a portion of a speech EA CEO John Riccitiello gave at a stockholder's meeting, in which he talks about Microtransactions and how effective they are in getting money from gamers.
