I forgot this existed too until their beta database got hacked and my info leaked. So nice of them to keep that stuff around so long after the beta.

wtf this is some silly shit
 
but looks way more entertaining than any BF3 stuff i've seen, all of which looks like the same FPS with the same brown coat of paint that they've been using for years and years and years

I can't believe this was uploaded before the new Battlefield 3 trailer. Shame on you, Giant Bomb.

I don't actually know I just felt when I was playing it that it was going to last maybe a year then disappear.

They put a decent amount of Marketing behind it, I also think it got in at a time before Free To play was such a common concept.

Too bad EA took the "Free-to-Play" out of this game.

@damnboyadvance: If they hadn't adopted their current model, there would be no Battlefield Heroes today. They weren't making enough money to support it. 
 
However, as it stands, you can still be a free player and remain competitive, at least for a while. I've never spent a dime on Heroes and I occasionally top the scoreboards.
