Yes, but nothing will live up to Call of Duty 4 until maybe the next gen. That game was to epic, against MW2 though, yes it beats MW2. But not MW1.

I agree, Call Of Duty 4 actually lets me play online, Mw2 keeps me fetching the playlists for like 3 hours and then It takes about another 2-3 hours to find a game =( I don't like it right now.

It killed MW2 in that I will probably never play it again. Bad Company 2 exceeded the hype for me.

not tru yes MW@ broke records that was for a short duration, it's future success is garbage, BFBC2 will be played by PC gamers and maybe console gamers for the next 4 years, PC games do better with age i can see BFBC2 selling more over it's life span. MW2 is really a console game BFBC2 is a PC game, Console gamers should rejoice, minus the dedicated servers(wich rock cause you can choose smaller battles to learn things and gain more points early on)This is a game that will give you a good bang for your buck, it's so much more tactical and personal and real compared to MW2. a good example is how most vets are already walking mostly in bushes, finding cover is really fun and getting a few kills from your favorite bush it's pricless.

I don't believe in games 'killing' other games, but yes BC2 is a much better game than modern warfare 2.

PSdual_wielder
The problem is so many of the mw2 fans are casuals who only know whats "hyped" sort of like the halo crowd. They won't even give bfbc2 a chance as its not marketed like cod or halo. Which really sucks as Dice and EA deserve better for making so a great game! I hope I am wrong but seeing so many people on my friends list who are still playing mw2 and haven't picked up bfbc2 it doesn't seem likely. Also a lot of the people are jobless teens so they buy one super popular game and thats it. I am loving bfbc2.... I have always been a fan of the battlefileld style games since i played BF: Vietnam years ago. (games like Warhawk, and SW: battlefront also fit this style but are 3rd person).

It's considerably better than MW2, which is no small feat... nevertheless, I doubt it will 'kill' MW2, but it does provide an excellent alternative...

In terms of quality and fun, Bad Company 2 completely obliterates MW2. Too bad most people will still play MW2 and won't experience this game.

EA and DICE seem nice now but if they were to become the next big shooter then well they would become like them IMO so I say it should be a big game but not too big so they become greedy

Nah, not by a long shot. The joke's on Activision this time... like the Eurogamer review states: " Bad Company 2, however, is an open challenge to the market leader, Activision's blockbuster behemoth. So let me pin my flag to the mast right from the start. This is the superior game. "

[QUOTE="Modern_Unit"]

[QUOTE="enterawesome"]How so? As far as I know, they're both the same game. How would you know anyway, according to your sig you haven't even played it... Which suggests to me you don't give a damn about the game, but you only came here to stir something up with PS3 owners and/or further justify your purchase of a 360. Actually, it's quite obvious that's what you meant, because that's not even what the thread is about. GTFO.SaudiFury

Framerate i think

seriously? were gonna have this fight? I got the PS3 version and it's fantastic.

ME too, the ps3 version is smooth as silk. Can't we talk about this game and how much it slams mw2 into the dirt and stop the console war bs for one minute?

I like it A LOT more than MW2, but I wouldn't say its a MW2 killer simply because there is such a huge fan base behind the CoD series

No. That makes no sense. It didn't do diddly squat to Modern Warfare 2. It's an amazing game, but it's a completely different experience that won't touch Modern Warfare 2 overall. You can play both extremely easily because they offer completely different pace, and tactical offerings.

I much prefer the team based, tactical style combat of Battlefield (not to mention vehicles and destructible environments make the game completely different).

Im sick of the MW2 style. Spawn, run around, kill, die, rinse repeat. Its gotten really stale this time around.

From what I played there is far less campers, far less annoying players and just overall better. Nothing like chopper attacks, and the destruction is very nice. Still, that pistol seems way too powerful, a la Halo CE.

Yeah, I don't care for Modern Warfare at all, but Bad Company 2 is very fun and I love it. Bad Company 2 did everything right that Modern Warfare 2 couldn't do.

http://www.gameswire.net/comparisons/battlefield-bad-company-2-comparison_47.html :roll:

I could care less. I'm getting the PS3 version over the 360 simply because I'm only online on PSN. And I don't game often enough online to warrant a $50+ year subscription on XBL.With PSN I could play online whenever I want to and whenever I'm free, without feeling obligated to fullfill a paid subscription service in XBL.

Not knocking on XBL, it does have it's cool perks. I just prefer PSN. :)
