Yes, it deserved the smilie. Anyway...

Who has it (X-Box)? Do you ever play it online?

I like it, it's just that there's only 4 maps and only 1 mode of play, and you can't chat in the lobbies (not to mention that there's a very major glitch in Sirocco, but... hehe)... and there are only 3 different 'classes' you can pick.

A lot of people are fairly cheap, and only one `class` is really good (Tech), but unfortunatly a lot of people abuse it by setting up auto/rocket-turrets inside a base, effectively wasting about 2 minutes while you respawn, do about 40 damage to the damn thing and die

I used to play the XMP demo for PC, before it was released as retail, then they had alot of demo servers
It was damned fun, the gameplay was great too. The vehicles added alot of fun and it's just great to jump with the buggy
Me and a friend kicked arse, we had a course we always took, taking a buggy and driving to the first rightmost powerplant and then we went through the mountain (and took the one in there) and then we usually speeded down the mountain into their base and took the artifact and speeded back fast as hell before anyone noticed.
Oh and I don't remember what the name of the map was, but it was like the only one in the demo

And the point of XMP was to add a teambased multiplayer mode to Unreal 2, it's just a little addon, think it's free if you have Unreal 2 even.

Well, the only level in the game that has mountains is Rampant (SunsetBeach is flat except for the base area, and it's not exactly 'sneaky' -- most of it's out in the open) and Sirocco is a desert level with giant stone pillars (but you can't get on top of them )

There's also Lowlands (mostly just hills) but it definitely sounds like Rampant... it's pretty fun >D

]Also, XMP is a free addition for the XB version... It's a lot different than Single Player (which now that I think about it blows )

I wish there were multiple modes of play (2- or 8-Artifact mode, anyone? CTF old style? Deathmatch, for god sakes?) and a better radar; it sucks when you're hacking a deploy point and someone walks up right behind you and kills you Hell, if an opponent gets in a vehicle, it disappears off the radar. What the hell?

Anyway... I'm going back to playing it. It's still pretty fun...
