The Battlefield franchise got its start back in 2002 with Battlefield 1942, a World War II shooter with a heavy emphasis on multiplayer fights. It doesn't innovate in terms of gameplay, but it's a fun and streamlined multiplayer shooter you can obtain without dealing with the nerds at GameStop. ![]() Battlefield 1943 is a benchmark for digital titles and sets a new standard for what we'll be expecting. Jump ahead to summer 2009 and we can download a 3D first-person shooter that supports 24 players online and looks almost as good as a full retail game. It began with the modest (but still fantastic) Xbox 360 launch title Geometry Wars, a simple 2D shooter that wasn't much more than Robotron with an extreme makeover. Battlefield 1943 serves as a good indicator of how far downloadable console games have come in just a few years.
