Chrome = Advanced Battlegrounds

Update: This story originally presumed this to be the Specforce expansion, but the EB Games listing for this game puts the shipping date at 12/13/04, so it looks likely that this is actually the renamed version of the original Chrome. This DreamCatcher Games Page (thanks Frans) has details and screenshots from Advanced Battlegrounds: The Future of Combat, either the new name for Techland's shooter Chrome, or the follow-up formerly known by the working title Chrome SpecForce (story) when it was to be published by Strategy First. Here's how the project is described:

Grab your choice from over 20 destructive hi-tech weapons including heavy machine guns, rocket launchers and plasma rifles as you set out to seek-and-destroy your enemy once and for all. Take control of awesome vehicles like four-wheelers, speeder bikes and giant mech-robots as you battle across gigantic landscapes, huge air masses and vast oceans.

. . . but wasn't Chrome supposed to be a slightly better than average FPS? IIRC, PCGamer gave it pretty good marks as did a few others. This is one of those games that easily got lost in the shuffle of other games, but I've always kept an eye out for it to pick it up once it was in the bargin bin. Anyone play this? Is this the same game that this story refers to?

(UK) PC Gamer gave it a crap mark; in the 50-60% range I believe.
