Who's got it? Oh shit, dawg, gorgeous and runs at a butter smooth 60fps, and full of so many excellent set-pieces. I'm sort of surprised by how superbly atmospheric this game is despite its ''generic'' settings. It just feels awesome. Could really do without the infinite spawning crap during some of the aforementioned set-pieces, but whatever. Nice return to form for the series. I've got the PS3 version, my psn id is revolverjgw |

Haven't played the full version of it yet, but I wasn't particularly impressed... it runs very smoothly, but something about the sky graphics make the game feel like it takes place in a large box.. they just aren't high-res enough and feel confining. Graphics being the least important aspect of good gameplay, I would gladly overlook that, but I do not like the "shoot through everything" mechanic in the game. Just because you can shoot through dry-wall doesnt mean you can shoot through brick or solid concrete walls, but as far as the demo goes, it makes no difference. It feels as though they simply threw in that mechanic without really taking the time to implement it in a way that it makes sense. Anyone who has visited or seen photos of areas where firefights have taken place can tell you that all the walls are pockmarket with bullet holes, most of which do not pass through the wall (where small arms are concerned). From what I've heard from people with the full version, this "paper-thin-wall" mechanic devolves multiplayer into a spawn-camp fest as people grenade-spam and shoot through the walls of the spawn area. This is exactly the direction I had hoped the multiplayer for CoD wouldn't take. Instead of implementing a stamina system to curb bunny-hopping, they give the bunny-hoppers more power by allowing them to jump around like morons while shooting through walls. When you couple this with the UAV reconnaissance drones that allow you to see people through walls, you end up with very unbalanced multiplayer. As I said I haven't played the full version, so you'll have to take my comments with a grain of salt. Gamespot's review has said that the Singleplayer campaign is very short, and if the multiplayer is truly this bad, then I'll have to wait until the price drops to justify paying for this game. |

I can't really speak for the multiplayer, haven't tried it yet and I don't think I'm going to put that much time into it, I'm too busy with online Warhawk. I don't spend much time on FPS multi. The campaign is awesome though, the same linear scripted epic-ness. May be short, and I feel like I'm going to beat it in 6-7 hours, but I'll run through it on veteran and that struggle should justify the price-tag. |

To be honest, the singleplayer campaign seems like it would be absolutely awesome, even if it's short. I am a pretty big FPS-multiplayer though, so if I'm going to buy it, I would want the MP to live up to my expectations. It appears that, as of right now, it doesn't (they even took away CTF mode from CoD), but once the price drops I will still most likely purchase this game just for the epic singleplayer. |

Isn't it just another copy/paste of the previous games and medal of honour and all those other games that are copy/pastes of whichever one was the first one or, possibly, a movie? |

Call do Duty 3 was ho-hum and this is awesome, So, no, not really. The Medal of Honor games aren't even in the same league. And fuck I am getting plastered online. Though it is pretty good... sort of annoyingly claustrophobic and confined at times, but that IS sort of the point of these modern urban skirmishes. I haven't tried all the maps (and I didn't play the beta) but I don't see a problem firing through shit. Cover is just... cover, unless you hide somewhere stupid. |

Oooh I like the SAS missions, especially the one at Chernobyl. Strictly linear and highly scripted, but that makes it feel smooth and cool working in tandem with your captain, crawling through the grass amongst patrols and picking and choosing who you should take out. I wish there was more stealth of that ilk in these games. The nighttime SAS missions feel great too, but the little snippets of stealth in those missions leave me wanting more. |

I cannot get bothered by action shooting games. Got myself a 360 and the only FPS game I enjoyed was Bioshock. All the other games intending to recreate a war atmosphere can go fuck themselves. Real war is boring enough. ASSASSIN'S CREED FOR PRESIDENT |

You REALLY like Bioshock, don't you? But yeah Assassin's Creed looks amazing, it's come a long way. Thief is probably my second favorite series of all time and Assassin's Creed looks like some kind expanded version of ''The City'' from Thief 3. Or the ''Thieve's Highway'' from Thief 2. Holy shit I can't wait for this. Uncharted/Assassin's Creed/Mario Galaxy/Mass Effect in the next week or two, crazy |

My mate has assassins creed but says its boring after the first couple of missions, very pretty though as for call of duty, i've played it round my mates house on his ps3 and the shooting through everything with certain weapons is bloody annoying! |

anybody else find some of the ariel infared battle scenes very disturbing? that shit looks identical to the footage you see of iraqis getting toasted by explosives from thousands of feet in the air. it makes me sad that kids are playing this shit, it really does. and i am a huge fan of mortal kombat, its not the violence that bothers me its more the dessenitizing people to the concept of very realistic warfare that resembles exactly a war happening right now |

If that's your concern, you should boycott videogames altogether because they only reason they don't make games look completely realistic now is because they don't have the technology. One day violence in games will be so lifelike it will be completely indistinguishable from reality. |

and that's not a good thing. |

actually that sounds pretty scary, never thought of it like that |

it took me ages to get extracted on the SAS mission at the end by the Ferris wheel, they just keep coming and those fucking dogs man, i hate them. over all a great game very cinematic, intense and fun. |

"you should boycott videogames altogether" by the time games look perfectly realistic the human race will have almost literally turned into digital steam |

I give it 50 years, tops, for both. |

I just got this, i've only got it on 'normal' and its really hard, i'd hate to see what its like on the hardest mode! |

"anybody else find some of the ariel infared battle scenes very disturbing?" it felt weird to play that part because of how realistic it was, disturbing is the right word... that part was maybe a bit too real. |

has anyone played Battlefield: Bad Company yet? How does it compare? |
