Now it's not often that I say this...but I think Battlefield Bad Company 2 could easily be a Modern Warfare 2 beater. I hate that expression - having to compare two games because they're share the same theme...WAR. For me Modern Warfare 2 was a piece of art, with it's improvement of almost every aspect on Modern Warfare, and some more. But MW2 and BF:BC2 have absolutely nothing in common except they are two sub-series of two popular warfare games that both originated doing World War Two FPS games - with Call of Duty focusing on the single player aspect and Battlefield sticking to the multiplayer.

Now Bad Company 2 has been highly anticipated, and to be fair I've seen this kind of thing before. The original Killzone was dubbed a "Halo killer", and so everyone began comparing the two - which is NOT what video games are about. It's as much use as comparing Coca-Cola and Pepsi....basically they're the same carbonated soft drink that giant corporations have mass produced to suit your taste.

I've not really been overly excited about BF:BC 2, but now I can understand why. The game is INSANE. I mean really, it's really opened my eyes. The past 2 years I have practically dedicated my life to the three CoD games, Modern Warfare, World at War and Modern Warfare 2. The original BF:BC was pretty decent, but now it seems this sequel is somewhat...better. It's hard to explain, the game just took everything I knew about BF:BC and added a lot more action, guns and generally made it easier to play. The controls are easier, and they've really made it a demolition game...in the sense that you can blow anything the hell up. See that sniper gunning your team-mates? One RPG and blow up the entire building. Simple as.

Now I'm off to write my Resident Evil 5 Lost in Nightmare review....actually I'll do it in the morning as I don't want nightmares ;)
