One Wikipedia search later:

Release date(s)
September 29, 2006 (Steam)
June 15, 2007 (UK retail)
April 15, 2007 (United States)
April 19, 2007 (Macintosh)

So no, it's not a new game.

But the game is still fun! :duh: I just got the game today, there are still a ton of people playing the game! So, it seemed like a fairly new game 😉

Nope.

i believe you require a tad bit more lurk time, but that is just an opinion.

edit: you know, just to get a feel for things.

One year later, this is still a hilarious topic from a very odd cookie.

I remember beta testing this game until I came to the realization that it was boring and s###ty.

it was a joke, i think.

edit: or a foreigner- it's hard to tell.

He was a Redliner.

Well I don't know about you guys, but DEFCON is the newest game I can think of.
