Better than COD.
User Rating: 10 | Battlefield: Bad Company 2 X360
I did not like Bad Company one so my expectations for this one were not great to start. I had already purchased COD for the PS3 and I did not feel like purchasing another copy for my 360 considering I had played through all the modes and the online was beginning to be come wearisome, so I looked at this and said why not, some of my friends had it but they still all played COD. I started up the game thought the menu was nice, and began the campaign (I always do that first, always). Maybe an hour or so in my friends invited me to a game and I said no I have to beat the campaign, they insisted and I did join (after a excruciatingly long registration of he VIP code). First impressions are everything and this one blew COD out of the water turned around and did a 360 no scope to it (which you can actually do in this game with ease). This games online is so amazing I barely even try to play the campaign anymore, this is the first game I have ever skipped the campaign on to play online. The squad tactics are awesome, the kits amazing, the maps mind blowing, the sound breathtaking, and the graphics stunning.
This game has so much to do, such as while defending in a rush map, sneak behind enemy lies steal their Black Hawk and shoot them from the sky with their own vehicle. You can have your team mate drop you out of the helicopter so you and your friends (best way to play is with your friends) can go and plant a bomb at A and then get an extract so you can defend your bomb while sniping from a helicopter.
The one thing that COD has over BFBC2 is that more people talk when you play with strangers, in COD it is not necessary but in BFBC2 it is almost pointless to try and win otherwise.
Battlefield Bad Company 2 is a must have for anyone who fancies online play, with kits like the medic and engineer as options if you don't like being a shooting heavy player this game has something for everyone. And modes like Conquest and Rush put a new twist on game play if you are switching from COD but for fans of the Battlefield series you'll feel right at home laying waste to your enemies while hovering over A in you attack helicopter.
