compared to kz2, resistance2, cod series battlefield's multi sucks. Its not bad but there are much better multiplayer games out there. The campaign mode is horrible. I do like occasionally going online with it and sniping though! The maps are huge and its a lot of fun to snipe, but that is all i have found enjoyable about it.

At $20, it's a steal. The campain is a bit boring, but the online is one of the funnest multiplayer games i've played in a long time. The balanced weapons, vehicle combat (land, air, and water), and destructible environments really set it apart from other games.

$20 for a game that will last you 20-80 hours is definately a good deal. I like the game and I play it online occasionally. After reaching the top rank (which takes quite a while) and beating the campaign twice I've gotten bored of it. But yes, I would definately recommend it, and next time use the sticky.

you can always find a match that is near full, or full. I can't give you a rough number because of how the lobby is set up.

I strongly disagree with this statement. The story line is good, better than COD4's "let's be unstopable and kill everything in out path". The online is great. I would definitely recomend it.

lol um bs, battlefield your team mates are unstoppable! They can get hit over and over, the only somewhat redeeming factor to this game is the big maps and destructible online environment. Oh and no the campaign is totally crap and you will never hear anyone talking about how great the campaign is. where as cod4 is well known as one of the best campaign experiences!

The game is absolutely worth it's $15 price tag. I doubt the online is over populated these days, and will take an even bigger hit when the new Modern Warfare game and MAG are released, but the game is quite fun. Loaded with humor, fantastic effects, and a good storyline.

I've played a lot of fps and i've got to say, BC is a blast to play, literally. Being able to take out the wall a sniper is hiding behind and seeing him still crouched there thinking he's all covered is awesome. I have a ton of great momments in the multiplayer and a good amount of laughs from the single player too. With the low price, I'd say go for it! Its definatley worth it.

totally disagree

destruction is what sets this game apart from all those games

It's a blast to play and for $20 it's a steal:D

It's a decent game but there are definitely better FPS likes Killzone 2 and COD 4. What is unique about the game is the destructible environments that the game provides. I just didn't like the characters and their goofball mentality. Kind of takes the seriousness out of war and give me a comedic feel it but this is just me.

It is definately worth getting for $17 used at Gamestop. I got it the other day and I cant believe I didn't pick this game up earlier. I haven't even played online yet but the single player is pretty damn good, it's a got a really good story, its actually entertaining and funny, and the weapon and vehicle arsenal are great. Flying helicopters that are easy to control, look amazing, and deal an assload of damage is great. Also calling in laser designated air strikes and guiding the missile in as it destroys a sniper tower is awesome.

Well it is a good game, but my guess is multoplayer is dying now because soon, BFBC2 is coming out... So you should wait for that ;)

depend on what you're looking for,its VERY different from other FPS

the charters are goofy,the game is actually a lil hard on normal,neraly EVERYTHING can be blown up or destroyed and defaced in some way,lol.and yea the campaign is somewhat boring,maybe because of the huge enviorments and lack of good music during firefights and BEWARE, there is NO DEATHMATCH.there are only two modes,conquest* and gold rush* which bears resemblance to a CTF team deathmatch sort of thing
