Wesley Yin-Poole of Videogamer Writes: Eidos clarifies release date confusion Eidos has confirmed that Conflict: Denied Ops, the fifth game in the multi-million selling Conflict series, will definitely be coming out on Friday 8 February.

Just a few hours ago, Eidos released the PC demo for Conflict: Denied Ops. However, a scan from the Dutch gaming magazine Power Unlimited confirms that there is an Xbox 360 demo incoming as well. The ad in the magazine says the demo is already available on Marketplace, but as you might know this is not the case yet. The demo is expected to launch in the next few days on Xbox Live Marketplace. Any details on a Playstation 3 demo are yet to be revealed.

IGN reports: Renowned for his Hollywood caliber orchestral writing, multiple award-winning composer Richard Jacques (Headhunter, Mass Effect) has scored an original music soundtrack for CONFLICT: DENIED OPS, a new two-player co-op first person shooter from Pivotal Games and the fifth game in the best-selling CONFLICT series. CONFLICT: DENIED OPS will be released on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC in February 2008. To complement the non-stop action and cinematic moments throughout the game, Jacques composed an energetic military score that employs traditional ethnic instruments and vocals for the settings across Africa, South America and Russia. The music is fully interactive, reacting to the player's movements, and enhances the immersive experience of the fast-paced gameplay.

January 22, 2008 Right - before we go any further, there's something you should see. It's a video of Conflict: Denied Ops in action with some details from one of the game's designers, Terry Watts. Take a look and see what you think. All done? It all sounds great in theory, doesn't it? Co-op play, guns, environment destruction, vehicles, explosions, team orders... so why has Conflict: Denied Ops left us so underwhelmed? It's the gameplay. That same gameplay we've seen a hundred times
