I never really got into Cannon Fodder as such but the music score was pretty cool

Good Luck to them but then I already have a pile of around 25 games for the 360 I haven't even opened yet (I always buy the games when there on special)

I used to do that with Gamecube games.  After six years, half of them are still in the shrinkwrap. ;LOL;

Having a story is the first bad sign ;)

Might be fun, but if they are developing for the 360, there's almost 0 chance of a linux port, so F 'em.

TBH I don't know how they could possibly improve on the original. Here's hoping it doesn't end up with pointless 3D graphics and 27 buttons to control it.

Especially as they seem to totally gone away from the fact that  the originals despite being games were a comment on the realities of war.

Hmmm... Can't say I hold out too much hope for this being decent. Although, I don't have a problem with games switching to a 3D engine, provided it's done properly

For example, Populous: The Beginning is an excellent, updated and 3D version of Populous, whereas Worms 3D is tripe.

@Daedelus
Agreed, lots of games add 3D for the sake of it and it adds nothing to enhance the gameplay. Worms 3D and that awful PacMan 3D on the XBox spring to mind.

Actually Worms 3D was fun and the 3D aspect did add to the gameplay. Just my $0.02 :)
