Good to hear those Battlefield: Bad Company reviews, I have it preordered. I am a little upset about the Alone in the Dark ones though. I will still rent the game but I was hoping for it to be amazing. I just don't know if it is going to do that for me...

It's fixed. It was so laggy when they first released the demo you couldn't really play it. They added servers and adjusted the ping protocols, it runs smooth as butter now.

Good of fans of the game, I guess. I don't like the game that much judging from the demo.

Battlefield was guaranteed to do good after demo. Dont care if people hated it they obviously didnt play it long enough or went into it in a bad mood

BF2 is decent, but BF:BC is better. These guys don't know about Bad Company enough to know wth they are talking about. Bad Company's graphics, actual use of artillery, camera operated machine guns, destructable enviroments, and arguably the best audio ever put in a videogame make Bad Company a much better game. Go rent BF2 and download the BF:BC demo. I promise when you're done, you will take BF2 back and then go buy BF:BC.

Oh i've already got the money for BF:BC. Just waiting until i can buy it on monday. I think the game's really outstanding. It's not the greatest game ever but it's very good in my opinion at least. Thanks for the information.

I'll be picking up Bad Company aswell. I've already got BF2, and it is a good game. But from what I've played of BC it's a good addition to the series, especially when they add Conquest.

Here is BF2

Here is BF:BC

http://www.gametrailers.com/player/35186.html

My only gripe with BC is that they took out the parachute(as far as I know). One of the coolest experiences I've had in all my years of gaming, is jumping out of a heli with 2 of my online buddies, and parachuting in on a control point with guns blazing.

no doubt it should score higher.. modern combat didn't even really have a campaign.

i don't care what the critics give it though. i played the beta, and the demo.. and i just don't like the way it plays.

graphics are nice. audio is pretty cool. but i just don't like the 'feel'. so modern combat, though looking quite dated now, i still found more fun to play.

and i really wanted to like it too.. i've been highly anticipating this game since i first heard about it.

thought frontlines and bad company would be definate buys for me.. after trying the demo's.. i don't even care to rent them. (and i don't say that to bash them, like i said i was realy looking forward to them :(

I am not suprised it is scoring well after the demo and the beta, but I am getting it regardless of what it scores by critics. The online play is a blast and has a lot of depth with its classes. Looking forward to picking up my copy Tuesday!

BF2: MC the best of the "series"? Are you kidding me? Maybe the best on CONSOLE, but the PC series of BF blows MC out of the water. BF2 for PC is BY FAR the best of the series.

there is no pay for guns anymore except if you get the gold edition you get the guns and the guns are not even that good. There is also now find all five which you can get weapons for free for signing up for different things. Im just saying it is not the worst battlefield.

I have BF2:MC, I have the demo of BF2 for the PC (I dont buy it because of my crappy PC) and I have the demo of BF:BC and I still think:

1-BF2

2-BF2:MC

3-BF:BC (without counting previous games of the series)

I'm no doubt getting BFBC. It's sort of a shame with AITD reviews though; I was expecting it to be amazing and I after reading those reviews, I won't be buying it.

1-BF2

2-BF2:MC

3-BF:BC (without counting previous games of the series)

I like Battlefield 2 as well, but the mp gameplay formula in BF:BC isn't that much different than BF2. While playing Conquest in BF2, at any given time you're either attacking or defending an area. The Gold Rush mode in BC simply puts a little more focus on what role you have to play.

From a technical standpoint BC obliterates every other past BF game. The graphics, particle and smoke effects, destructable enviroment, and cutting edge HDR audio all give BC a more realistic presentation. Hit detection has also been fixed in BC. I can't think of anything more annoying in BF2 than having to abandon your 30 ton tank just because it's stuck on a puny oil drum that you didn't see and ran over.

If you still think BF2 is better than BF:BC, I would suggest at least another 10 hrs.

If modern combat was considered bad enough to not do justice, BC is even worse.
