Battlefield Vietnam?
by Maarten Goldstein, Apr 21, 2003 4:38pm PDTGameSpy Daily is reporting that a search at the US Patent and Trademark Office's website reveals that Digital Illusions, developer of Battlefield 1942, has filed for a trademark for the name Battlefield Vietnam. Of course this doesn't mean that the game is actually being worked on, but it's indeed a possibility. First a rush of WW2 action games, now the Vietnam war is set to follow it seems with Line of Sight: Vietnam, Vietcong, Men of Valor: Vietnam and possibly Operation Flashpoint 2 and Battlefield Vietnam.

And hey, maybe we can have some boobie traps too! I know that i, for one, would just LOVE to trip on a near-invisible wire and lose my legs, then either have to respawn and walk all the way back or retire and make my living on a shrimping boat. Whoo-eeee, sign me up for a beta of this one!
Yes, i know nothing is confirmed. Yes, if you like these kinds of games, knock yourself out. I'm waxing sarcastic because i just can't figure out what goes through developer's minds when they even THINK of stuff like this. Then again, maybe i'm just not into the whole "There are countless opportunities for you to die regardless of what you do. We may as well have just added in an auto-kill-after-2-minutes-of-life feature" sub-genre of FPS. If anyone would like to let me in on the secret without relying solely on the "teamplay" argument, please feel free.
