PlanetSide Arena will offer the largest battle royale experience yet. Here's what we know.
The PlanetSide franchise is getting a massive battle royale mode.
Dubbed PlanetSide Arena, this upcoming title is not an add-on for PlanetSide 2 but rather a standalone battle royale take on the PlanetSide concept. At launch, it will include three battle royale modes: a fairly standard 100 player battle meant for solo players, a three-team squad mode that supports 102 players, and an absolutely staggering 250 vs. 250 team battle mode.
That 250 vs. 250 mode is a pretty fascinating take on the genre that seems to tap into the spirit of the series' massive battles. Of course, the twist this time will be that any player who falls during these massive skirmishes won't respawn. This will no doubt lend a sense of urgency to the experience as well as lead to some different team strategies.

LONDON -- Martin Scorsese's two-part Bob Dylan documentary, which combines unseen footage of the folk-rock legend combined with extensive interviews, forms the centerpiece of BBC2's fall season, channel head Roly Keating said Thursday. No Direction Home -- Bob Dylan, a Spitfire Films/BBC co-production with PBS, is Scorsese's directorial debut for the BBC and forms part of BBC2's Arena arts documentary series, now in its 30th year. The film will air Sept. 26 and 27 on the BBC and on PBS in the U.S. The film focuses on Dylan's early life and the key creative period from 1961-66 that encompassed the singer's then-controversial segue from folk to rock.

Variety reports that maverick filmmaker Martin Scorsese is planning to direct a documentary about legendary singer-songwriter Bob Dylan and the impact that Dylan's music had on the American culture and politics. Dylan has promised the filmmaker full cooperation, and is expected to give in-depth interviews . his first filmed ones in 20 years. As yet untitled, the film will focus on the years 1963-1966, from Dylan's ascendance to stardom and ending with his controversial "conversion" from acoustic to electric music; 1966 was also when Dylan had a motorcycle accident, and consequently didn't tour for eight years. The documentary will be financed by Guy East and Nigel Sinclair's Spitfire Pictures, along with Thirteen/WNET New York and BBC Television, and will debut on both WNET's American Masters series and BBC's Arena. Scorsese is expected to start going through footage and begin editing after finishing up The Aviator; the Dylan documentary is expected to be delivered in late 2004 or early 2005.
