Does actually contain some in-game footage.

I think it looks pretty good, for a casual Beef game that is.

"Contains a matchmaking service so you only play with people of your own skill level"

FAIL (for 5punk, at least)

Oh good christ, they're not bringing that matchmaking shit over to PCs now are they?

... then again Microsoft are trying to bring the whole "PAY FOR AMAZING ONLINE SERVICES LIKE FRIEND LISTS AND JOINING SERVERS" to PC gaming, so its not like it can get any worse.

I'm confident the matchmaking will be much the same as we're used to on PC and we'll all be able to join the same server if we want. They're probably referring to a "quick match" option.

Not another Play Now button?

Having watched the trailer I reckon that could be quite a good giggle with you bummers.

That does look rather win.

Being able to chose a server with similar skill players can only be a good thing, if it works, and if it's optional. Nothing worse than being repeatedly owned, or facing little challenge.

However, skill is not equivalent to rank, so unless it's going to be more subtle than matching generic XP (I've not clicked any of the links by the way) then I'm not convinced about how worthwhile it would be.

Apart from being repeatedly owned by Chicken and having him laugh at you over TS.

I've just watched that trailer again, and I've become slightly moist now.
