User Rating: 9.6 | Battlefield 2 PC
The first thing you notice about Battlefield 2 is its amazing graphics, accompanied by fantastic sound. Straight away you are thrown into a immense battle, really making you feel part of an important team. The multiplayer is quite possibly the best I have ever played, only being beaten by the classic, Counter Strike: Source. Players are given a choice of six playing views: Special Ops, Medic, Assault, Support, Sniper and Anti-Tank. Each of these specialities has its own weapons and advantages/disadvantages. My personal favourite being Special Ops, in which you can plant C4 on enemy vehicles or plant in a defensive position and move back and hit the switch, gleefully watching a vehicle blown to pieces! Single player is also a great way for beginners to get to grips with the game before facing off with players in multiplayer. But when you do start your multiplayer campaign, you will notice that there are a number of ranks which you proceed up through as you get more kills etc. A higher rank then unlocks better guns for you and gives you a much higher chance of becoming commander, being able to command artillery, supply drops and enemy tracking devices of many sorts. Oh, and did I forget to mention the numerous vehicles you can play in from helicopters to tanks, and boats to transporting trucks. If you are going to buy one game this year, then there is an obvious choice at hand...
