Awesome, awesome game. Gorgeous graphics, fantastic sound, brilliant gameplay - who needs MW2 anyway? Why have campers and douchebags with heartbeat sensor when you can have tanks, choppers, ATV's, teamwork and destruction? Why be assraped and spawn-killed by chopper gunner when you can be taking down buildings, completing objectives and blowing up shit?

AND you have Haggard. 'Nuff said

I've just starte dthe single player campaign and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. I had the first Bad Company and the single player was obviously just tacked-on to what was essentially a multiplayer game. The sequel seems quite a bit better. The graphics are gorgeous. The destoryable envirnments are good - when they work. This seems a bit arbitrary at times. I've used an RPG to remove the side of a brick building, but then tried the same with the side of a wooden shack only to find it completely undamaged. Hmmmm ... Also (although I'm still near the start), the difficulty on 'normal' seems pretty damn easy. We'll see if it hots up. Like I said, I'm not very far in but so far it's sold me enough that I want to keep playing.

Yeah, it does get a little building glitch now and then. In the demo I was blasting away at a building's base, but it didn't collapse until a blasted a chunk out of the roof. Weird, huh.
Still not as annoying as that damn care package glitch in MW2 though. Ugh.

Huh... Now I'm sad I decided to get MAG instead of this game.

Is that game even worth it? I thought Rob's review of +100 13 year olds telling you what to do would be spot on. You can't even play a game of Halo without running into these douchebag kids. In fact they are even on Uncharted II Coop! Some whinny pre-pubescent kid wants to try and melee every npc and he screams 'Stop stealing my kills!' when I don't tolerate being shot by these sims. It's freakin ridiculous.

The game is pretty good actually, you get placed in a squad of 8 and you only hear them unless you're close to someone who isn't in your squad, and surprisingly, I've only had one pre-pubescent person play with me and he was pretty good, followed the objects and stuff.

the war game thing is pretty tired for me

I got battlefield bad company 1 for the story, and it was fantastic but not worth the price

also since my 360 is more or less out of commission, I'll be playing mostly wii and psp games from now on

I eventually finishe dthis game. Played it a bit, kind of liked it, put it on the shelf for a bit, then came back when the mood for a really starightforward shooter hit me.

It's good. Not great, will ultimately be pretty forgettable. But good enough for me to want to finish it. The single player campaign has a bit of a wonky story, but the charachters are pretty good and there are some genuinely funny moments.

In the end it is pretty much just another by the numbers rail shooter. But it does what it does pretty solidly. A for effort, B for delivery. You could do worse.
