Terminator 3: War of the Machines multiplayer beta demo

Advertisement (Why?)

Atari has released the playable demo of Terminator 3: War of the Machines, allowing you to step into Arnold Schwarzenegger's exoskeleton or the shoes of the Tech Com Special Forces in this imminent sci-fi first-person action game by Clever's. This is a multiplayer demo that includes a pair of maps called "Lab-Present" and "Downtown" playable in the Team Deathmatch, Mission and Termination modes. Update: Atari sends word that this is a beta test which "will not be compatible with the official demo nor will it be compatible with the final game, both of which will have improved performance and online play."

Arnold's name is spelled Schwarzenegger, but the game looks halfway cool.

Well I think it's dumb that you say he can't pronounce California .. is there a "right" way to pronounce it ? People from all around the US have different accents and all pronouce words differently . so which pronounciation is the correct one ?

IMO, no. it looks bad and I can't find any servers worth a damn, the game just lacks excitement.

what we need is a GTA type game with maps of all the Terminators and we get to run around in a deep Arnold voice going "I AM A TERMINATOR... PH34R ME!!"
