The move by NovaLogic to include the PunkBuster software in Joint Operations is another positive step in the company's continuing crusade to stop cheating in multiplayer games, which are played worldwide via the company's own internet gaming service, NovaWorld.

"Joint Operations can host huge multiplayer battles online and over LAN, so the need for strong anti-cheat measures is greater than ever," commented Joel Taubel, Producer of Joint Operations: Typhoon Rising. "Combining PunkBuster and Joint Operations means that we can securely deliver vast modern combat arenas to the public."

Set in Indonesia in the near future, Joint Ops is set to take the multiplayer community by storm. Developed using NovaLogic's enhanced Black Hawk engine, Joint Operations uses superior multiplayer technology that enables gamers to play in large scale player games online via NovaWorld.
