1UP: Are you looking at compatibility between the online mode in the different versions, PS2, Xbox, and PC?

Osieja: Definitely not on Xbox. We're currently deciding whether we want to do cross-platform multiplayer between PS2 and PC again. For us, it was neat that we were the first game to do it, we got pretty good feedback, but there's always issues with cheating and modification in the PC version.

Our biggest thing this year, though, is that we're going on Xbox Live. Every review I see, every negative thing I saw, usually tied into the fact that there was no Xbox Live.

Another online feature, which we haven't been talking about much yet, is that we will do LAN play for PC, which we didn't do last year. The European territories really clamored for that -- in Germany, they really love the LAN play. And you'll be able to play any of the modes, including the new modes, online as well as offline.
