Yep, the third game in Free Radical's marquee series has gone gold.
The GameCube isn't known for its wide selection of first-person shooters, but many Nintendo fans cherish their copies of Timesplitters 2, developed at Free Radical by some of the chaps who worked on Rare's legendary Goldeneye 007.
EA dropped us a line today to say that the third game in the Timesplitters series, Future Perfect, has gone gold and will be shipping on March 22nd. Here's a handy list of features according to EA:
• A deep story mode taking players from a 1914 Scottish castle to the frontlines of a robot war in 2243

• Online multiplayer action for up to 16 gamers on Xbox Live and 8-player action for the PlayStation 2 computer entertainment system, in 11 unique online game modes, including Deathmatch, Shrink, Thief, Capture the Bag, Virus, Vampire and more
• Co-op mode allowing gamers to play through the entire single-player game with a friend
