2010 games you shouldn't miss - playing the hardcore way: Battlefield: Bad Company 2

Battlefield: Bad Company 2
Good campaign, really solid multiplayer!

Battlefield: Bad Company 2 multi-player is really awesome, for me, considering the ones I've played (a lot) in the last year or so (Red Faction: Guerrilla, MW2, MAG) was the most enjoyable so far!
The squad system is very well done and if you play with your friends the fun really goes high (a three or four friends squad is the best).
The environment destructibility adds a lot plus all classes are nice, with their features and peculiarities, also there are tons of things to unlock, tens of little and bigger awards... and in the end you can really enjoy your favourite gaming style and create your "custom" class once you've got everything unlocked.
I, for one, really loved to play the "Assault Sniper", with sniper, mortar strike and the Saiga shotgun pumped to its max.

The single player campaign is also well structured if a bit guided. the "fading" scenes always give me that "episodic" feel (the "Lair" feel) but still is totally enjoyable.
In fact the characters are very well done and you really feel into the game, I played it through the end in a breath, you know (and I don't really like contemporary war settings as well :P).

It was my the first Battlefield I played but I could already "understand" all the characters very easily, they're strong and well characterized.
The story is nice and certainly makes you curious about what will come next and the gameplay varied enough to keep you interested.

In hard mode there are just a couple of spots where it becomes a little frustrating 'cause you die over and over but by and large is quite balanced, with well placed check-points.
Some of the M-COM stations are truly well hidden but you can re-play any episode any time so you're safe about the trophy/achievement if you aim for a platinum.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing14d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9214d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
