Battlefield Bad Company 2

Can't wait for BC2 to come out, not long now, I have pre-ordered it. Been playing the demo which is really enjoyable, as long as people join as different classes and work together.

I think its a bit pointless when everybody in a squad or side joins as recon. Don't take this the wrong way, I too enjoy doing a bit of recon, as long as it assists your side to win overall. I do get a great sense of achievement when getting a head-shot from one side of the map to the other and spotting is good whilst communicating with your attackers and medics etc. Too much camping ruins things as the objectives still need to be reached by planting or defusing charges etc to win the map.

I just hope this doesn't turn into a spawn die, spawn die, spawn die game as I will get hugely frustrated very quickly. I also hope that the unlocking and levelling up system isn't unfair and disadvantage players too much when initially starting off. Still, it gives us something to aim for and that's what adds to the 'stickiness' of the game, you just want to keep playing more and more, just a few more points to the next level and unlock a new item.

Its a shame that the XP wont be carried over to the full version, well I suppose thats unofficial as EA haven't actually commented to my knowledge. Im sure it won't take too long to catch up anyway.

Anyway, enough rantings, I have high hopes for this and hope that I keep playing it for ages. Hope to see you on there!

Xbox 360

Just got an Xbox 360 60GB once again. Used to have one but used it to fund the purchase of my PS3. I wish I never got rid of the Xbox, oh well lol. Just got some good bargains on Ebay for Mass Effect and Frontlines: Fuel of War, hope they are good ones. Been playing a borrowed copy of Fable 2 which seems like something I could get into. Now on the hunt for cheap copies of Gears of War 2 and Fable 2. Found a good deal at HMV for Halo 3 for £11.99. Can't buy everything in one go, need to have some patience :-)
