Absolutely Amazing but..........

User Rating: 9 | Battlefield: Bad Company 2 X360
Let me start out by saying this is one of the best games of the year and is easily one of the top 5 games of the last few years. The gameplay is perfect and the graphics are stunning. Once you turn it one you don't want to turn it off. From the first mission to the last its a joy ride that keeps you glued to your TV and Controller.

I loved the storyline in this game and it really kept me into it. There were no moments in which i was pressing a button to bypass what was going on just to get to the gameplay unlike some other games.

That being said there were some issues.

A minor issue i had with this is the lack of Single Console Co-Op. I don't understand why most newer games are going away from Single Console Co-Op gameplay and forcing you to be an online gamer or in most cases having to purchase 2 copies of the game to play with family members. I understand a split-screen would diminish the games beautiful graphics a little but $60 is alot for a game and $120 for 2 copies plus the Live Accounts needed with Xbox 360 is just is too expensive just to play with a family member.


The real issue i have with it is that it took less than 10 hours to finish the main storyline (and since im not an online gamer the main storyline is all i really have). Now that really shouldn't be a Con because 10 hours is a lot of playing-time and some newer high rated games have less than 8 and the online gameplay for those that do use online will give you many more hours of gamplay.

I guess it had me hooked and i wanted more but that's what a great game is suppose to do. Leave you wanting more and this one sure did.

I would have game this game a 9.2 but all you can select is a 9.0 or 9.5 and its closer to a 9.0.
