EA crosses the boundary of taste with the Smooth Suit and Thuggin Outfit in the forthcoming Battlefield Heroes...
There's been a considerable amount of coverage since the death of Michael Jackson was confirmed late last week. Beyond securing the top slots in charts across the world, it seems some are quick to cash in on the death of the superstar - some a little more tastelessly then others.
A promotion for the forthcoming free-to-play shooter Battlefield: Heroes allows players to purchase the 'Smooth Suit' and 'Thuggin Outfit' as costumes in the game. It doesn't take a Jackson fanatic to realise where the influences for these come from.
Tasteless promotion or homage to the musical genius? All we want to know is how quickly after Jackson's death was confirmed did EA's artists set to work on the skins, and whether or not Thriller-themed zombie skins will follow.

natal has no lag issues the only one with issues is you acting like a pathetic fanboy, everyone who tried natal and the ps3 motion controlers said they were fantastic and couldnt wait to play games when they both release later on in 2010.
POST 20 YOU ARE THAT VERY FANBOY RETARD YOUR BLABBING ON ABOUT.

You guys need to stop talking about how only there's 3 classes. Instead of having 6 or 7 classes, you have 3 that has everything you would want in a FPS.
Bazookas, C4 (Dynamite, if you will), Knife, Bayonette, Grenade Gun Attachment, Swords, SMGs, Pistols, Wrenches to fix stuff (engineers/engineer-like class, forget the name).
EVERYTHING you could want packed down into 3 classes. Sure, it's less to count as enemies, but it's still great for DLC.
REMEMBER, IT'S NOT A FULL GAME. IT'S A [#@!?] ARCADE GAME. Jeez, people expect an arcade game to be z0mfg great.

ok ppl who compare xbox and ps3 have no life. U all are fan boys.... You play this game on Xbox 360, then play it on PS3, you will find that there is NO [#@!?] DIFFERENCE. JUST DIFFERENT CONTROLS. TRY IT ONE DAY [#@!?]S, BEFORE YOU TALK [#@!?] ABOUT ANYTHING.

lol yet another jelous ps3 owner knowing that natal will finally be the last nail in sonys coffin.
the reasone the 360 gets priority isnt cause its a crappy system its cause the ps3 is complete and utter sh.it.e thats not even worth it no more now that panasonic have brought out a blu-ray recorder/player (perfect if you have sky hd and want to record hd movies in hd).
the 360 has loads more support from the games developers and has a bigger user base.
end of the day YOU ps3 OWNERS LOSE END OF.

only reason why [#@!?]box 360 gets priority is because its such a crappy system they need to keep fixing things so it wont burn down your house.
