The campaign mode of this game takes the player by the hand and leads them through a series of battles. There's a story there, but it's somewhat convoluted and takes some time to figure out.

The game controls are standard for a shooter, and are easy to come to grips with. The game is also forgiving of noobness - stand out of enemy sight for a bit and your health will recover.

Overall, a decent game but one that joins a plethora of similar offerings.

This is a great game. The single player campaign have a great sotryline with memorable characters. It can give one that no so much hours of action filled adneraline boost one would expect from an FPS.

As the game progresses you can unlock (find) different kinds of weapons, that you can later equip in crates, thus you can have the arsenal you prefer, instead of the one the designers thinks this will fit here. Don't worry if you need a bazooka, there will be one nearby.

You (and your opponents too) can interact with the environment to a great degree. Most buildings can be entered to provide a different vantage point toward the battlefield, but beware of explosives / tanks that can quickly destroy such cover.

Great FPS war game, with a slower pace then it's modern warfare competition. A good "weapon-and-equipment leveling system", together with a smooth and balanced team gameplay, makes for potential hundreds of hours of fun!

Battlefield Bad Company 2 is another great game from dice based on frostbite 1.5. Its great to see that dice are still keeping to their original formular for battlefield with bad company 2 and they are still massively improving on that formular aswell. Bad company 2 also features a quirky but fun and exciting campaign ontop of perfect multiplayer :)

This is the best FPS i ever played! A compelling story and an amazing multiplayer make BFBC2 the best war game. My vote: 10! Here is a list of the principal good things of the game:

-Excellent graphics

-High quality sounds

-Destructable map. This things adds a lot of realism

-Very good multiplayer game

-The weapons are simulated good

Buy it and you will not regret it ;)

Great game, amazing multiplayer. The usual short but sweet signleplayer experience, but the meat of the game is in the awesome multiplayer!

Its a good game, with better online gameplay than any realistic shooter game I've played so far. There's a huge amount of unlocks and rewards, all making the experience better.

The rewards do give higher ranked players a fairly big unfair advantage however, but it evens out alright in the end. The one downside I would say is the buggyness of this game, of ranks and unlocks earnt 1 night will be missing the next night. There is often frequent bugs with joining servers or connecting of friends, which can only be fixed by restarting the game.

The single player campaign is excellent, although it can occasionaly get annoying, but as do all realistic shooters.

In the end, this game is a realistic shooter, which rarely crosses the line of realistic to annoying, and has magnificent gameplay, but is fairly glitchy, and seems forgotten by EA.

The campaign is as uneventful as most games of similar genre.

The multiplayer has huge potential, probably one of the best multiplayer games but it often unbalanced.

Exciting story, keeping you pulled into the story, with it's mix of war and comedy it is a great game included with the multiplayer experience a great game and worth the small pocket money to buy.

Very Nice game from all aspects, Single Player Campaign is fun and funny and interesting.

Rich online and fun experience, but sometimes is overwhelmed by heavy gunners who turn the game annoying

Overall score: 8/10

Battlefield Bad Company 2 as a single player is lacking and doesn't do enough to keep you interested.

Flick over to multiplayer however and be prepared to lose 100's of hours of your life in an addictive and rewarding experience.

Graphics and sound is top notch.

its amazing multiplayer makes the game worth all i paid for it.

if your only looking for a singleplayergame then i don't recommned it!

but who in their right mind buys a battlefield game for only singleplayer?

Wonderful game! Weapons are perfectly balanced. If your rank 50 doesn't mean you have an overpower LMG that can destroy tanks. The vehicle's in-game are fantastic and flying in a FPS is unbelievable fun! I give the game 9/10!

Comparing this to it's nearest rival i have to say this is much more enjoyable that the more recent editions of call of duty,sure the single player campaign is not the longest but you have to expect that with modern first person shooters,the thing that you really notice and that it really stands out is the quality in the sound and graphics department,it all looks and sounds more like a movie trailer and thats no bad thing,is top draw and the game engine is probably the best in the business.

Right to the game itself,like call of duty the campaign starts off in world two,i won't spoil things but all i will say is that there's a surprise waiting and it's all enjoyable the single player campaign oozes quality and the story is quite believable but just when it starts to get interesting you find it's all over and get the impression that there should have been more but it's still good.

Now for the best bit and that's the multiplayer mode,now there are literally 1000's of servers and always plenty to keep you busy at all hours of the day,there's no better way than letting your aggresion out on a few strangers,it gets my vote and would give it 90/100.

This game is incredible! I love it! I have never had so much fun in a game before! The Graphics are stunning! I have pre-ordered BF3 but i felt this was a perfect buy anyway. There is barely any faults(according to me) and it gives a somewhat realistic feel! The Campaign has a good length, longer then usual single player games. And the multiplayer is really good too! Its a job well done! Its a clear 5/5 from me! Buy it!

The actual adventure is in my opinion that Battlefield: Bad Company 2 is a great game. Both the singel player story and of course the multiplayer part. But is that it?

In the singelplayer you get the "25 minutes here, 15 minutes there, 12 minutes here". Like in Modern Warfare 2. It feels a little bit fast and almost weird how you first start your mission in the South Pacific, it revolves around a submarine "a secret weapon that the Japanese put their hands on" and a moment later you are placed in cold Russia. On the other hand, the landshape and nature is beautiful and some of you might just appreciate the variations.

So who are you? Well your name is Preston Marlowe and you will team up in a small squad of soldiers. Everyone got their personality witch you pick up fast. Some corny jokes here and there makes the game real and fun. The enemies, the al is alright but not great. Almost in every gunfire situation you´ll end up letting them detect you. They shoot and you cover, then you kill them with ease (If not your squad kills them first). I played the game on "hard" and sure, there is some parts where I really wanted to turn off the game. But over all, thats maybe how it should be. And in the end you might scream for more because the game is not that long.

It could have been so much more if they made a co-op mode. Where you and your other three friends had to do all the dirty work. But no, it hurts to say but the game dosen´t have this.

The sound is incredibly good. I actually dare to say that this is the best sound I have heard in any action game in my entire life. The weapons sounds heavier and harder and the acoustics are brilliant. There is a perfect amount of reverb on every little sound effect. And to listen to how the crash from the sniper rifle bouncing between different buildings - is nothing short of wonderful. The larger guns has a loud blasts that echoed over the battlefield, truly amazing.

How about the multiplayer? The Battlefield series has always been about the addictive and extensive multiplayer. And yes, multiplayer part of this game is brilliant, straight through. Dice has improved virtually in every detail and has added some really successful innovations, like the ability to tailor the weapon choise and better (and less) balanced classes. The system that will upgrade your character is also terribly addictive. The improved ability to destroy things add a lot to the multiplayer,it sure looks nice and smooth. To bomb who damaged the house that the enemy hides in is an effective way of wearing down anyone, it´s an amazing freedom that more games should include. Working together for maximum efficiency, use the vehicles and use the objects as the well-designed multiplayer environments contains -is a rare addictive feeling.

So, it the game worth buying? I would say, with thanks to the great online multiplayer the game will last for a very long time. I love the feeling of reality, it really does feels like you are there, in the warzone. And maybe the game would earn 5 of 5 stars if it had a co-op story mode. I will hold my breath until next time. /Ecuze

A first person shooter which is the illegitimate child of the Battlefield series by DICE and the Call of Duty series by IW.

It takes place in the very near future, or alternate present if you prefer. There are two components to the game. The online and the offline.

Online you choose server and type of game from the few usual suspects, and go and cause havoc. You can choose your specialty, engineer (with stealth weapons and anti tank weapons), scout (aka sniper), assault, medic (with light machineguns for fire support. The more you play with the type of character, the more you upgrade your character (persistent) which unlocks various goodies and weapons. Depending on the character you choose (you can change character every time you "die" in the game), the gameplay can be very different for you. It just doesn't get old.

My favourite online part is the "conquest", which is more or less the same as in all the previous Battlefield games.

The online game is definitely worth the price of admission itself.

Thankfully though, it isn't just that. The game also has a single player campaign. Similar to the previous Bad Company game, and with touches of Call of Duty Modern Warfare, the single player campaign is a beautiful integral part of the game. While the story is more or less what you would expect (find the X before the world goes boom), and it is done in a very good way, that you start to believe you are there and do whatever you have to do, there is also lots of humour, mainly from what your 3 AI controlled buddies say to one and other during the battle and the scripted sequences between missions. Not to the point where it gets stupid, no, this is high class humour. The campaign is not as short as CoDMW, but don't expect 15 hours campaign either. It all depends on how you play the game. If you play on normal and on hard, then I would say at least 20 hours.

The game contains apart from the graphic killings, lots of swearing, so have that in mind if you have a problem with it.

Graphics and sound wise the game is top notch. It might not look better than say Crysis on steroids, but it looks great and plays very smooth. The sound is done in a great way and if you have a good sound system or good pair of headphones, you are in for a great treat.

The game is not without faults. My guess is that at least for ATI cards, there is going to be a new driver sooner or later. There is some occasional flashing (like a car) of some textures, like water, but it happens rarely and it might be my graphics card.

There are occasional crashes, say 1 every 5 hours of play, but again there is no way to be absolutely certain it is the fault of the game or not.

All in all, even as it is now, the game is well worth its price and you can expect to spend many fun hours with it.

I give it a 5/5
