best online I've played in years.
User Rating: 9 | Battlefield 1943 X360
Let me start off by saying this, this game is online ONLY. Which is one of the only letdowns of the game. The other thing is that there in only one major thing is that there is only one game mode. It's basically capture the flag. The more flags you hold the weaker the other team is. So, if you have a the majority of the flags(total of five), the other team's life bar starts to decrease. But just because there is only one game mode doesn't mean anything. Next, there are three classes to choose from. First, there is the rifleman. The cool thing about his weapon is that his melee attack is a spear on the end of his gun. He can fire efficiently from both close and long range. He carries an assault rifle and a grenade launcher. Next, there is the infantry. He is for close ranged combat. He carries a machine gun and and pistol. Each class carries grenades. But this guy carries detonating charges(total of three). Finally, there is the scout. He is great for long range sniping kills. He carries a sniper rifle and a pistol. With all that being said, ammo is not an issue. Your primary weapon never runs out of ammo. The only downside is reload times. Now, there are a total of four maps released at the moment. Each map is very massive with great environmental strategies on your side. There is a total of 24 player battles. Something I like a lot is the ranking system. It's easy to rank up, but it's so satisfying when you do. The thing is, getting kills is so difficult. There are people in tanks and airplanes attacking you. This makes the game all the more challenging. So once you finally get a kill, it's makes you feel very accomplished. And just like any Battlefield game, the environments ARE destructible. Of course, you can't complain about the graphics either. And the sound is very up to par. The explosions sound really nice. Overall, this game game is definitely something you need to play. At only 1200 Microsoft Points, or $15, this game is a steal.
