Section 8: Prejudice packs a ridiculous amount of gameplay into a $15 package, and the game, hailed by many critics as the best multiplayer shooter on Xbox LIVE Arcade, is available today from leading online retailers, including Steam, Games for Windows Marketplace, Direct2Drive, and Impulse.

Section 8: Prejudice also supports NVIDIA‘s 3D Vision (http://www.nvidia.com/object/3d-vision-main.html), a technology that brings games to life in an immersive 3D experience on the PC.

- View career and in-a-life records on player profile pages
- Setup and manage clans
- Compete in TimeGate sponsored “Events” and “Seasons”
- View leaderboards for a wide range of stats and weapon loadouts
- Examine player trend graphs to see which maps, equipment, and purchases are most popular (to name a few)
Then, of course, there’s the game itself. Section 8: Prejudice features:
- Mobilize by Drop Spawning from 15,000 feet, use Jet Packs to evade enemies, and ram opponents in Overdrive
- Campaign mode: 5-hour story-driven single-player campaign
- Conquest mode: Large-scale multiplayer for up 32 players
- Swarm mode: Four player co-op mode where shooter gameplay meets tower defense
