One of the things that frequently bugs me is how most ‘mainstream’ video games made by big time publishers almost always get “high scores” and lots of praises from the ‘majority media’ nowadays. All those nines and tens sprinkled in the scores columns of video game reviews, games are being pushed too close for comfort to the ‘perfect’ point to consumers, despite having flaws that should’ve dragged down the rating. This is where our occasional PC game reviews at HP Fansite come in – we get raw and messy into various PC titles to uncover the REAL truth: whether a game is worth spending your hard earned cash on… what’s good… what’s not… how the experience on YOUR PC will be (especially given the increasing number of people gaming on their notebooks)… how’s replayability like… singleplayer and/or multiplayer… and the works. All from the perspective of a true PC gamer (not some news editor who happens to work for a gaming magazine), plus collective opinions from my circle of PC gamer acquaintances.
Today, we’re taking an exclusive look at Battlefield: Bad Company 2. For the benefit of those who may not have heard of the game (how could you? It’s been the watercooler topic of most FPS/PC gamers since it was announced, gaining even more publicity during the time Infinity Ward announced “No dedicated servers” for Modern Warfare 2), Battlefield: Bad Company 2 is a first-person shooter game set in modern times. Overall, it’s a sequel to console-only first person shooter Bad Company 1, though you won’t be missing out too much if you’ve never played the first game before. The spotlight features of Battlefield: Bad Company 2 are a vast number of destructible elements (you can shoot through, blowup, cut and/or slash just about anything in the game, including making whole buildings collapse!) and ‘traditional’ Battlefield multiplayer with four classes to choose from, multiple vehicles you can drive and teamwork that you need.
