G4TV: Battlefield 1943 Hands-On Preview

G4TV writes: "While fans of the Battlefield series may have been irked lately that the makers of those first-person shooters, DICE, have been distracting themselves with console and cartoon versions of the series, not to mention some game in which the girl from the Esurance ads runs around like an idiot, there was some good news out of EA's event in Los Angeles last week. DICE are working on a new, more classic-style Battlefield game. And while it is a bit more arcadey than some games in the series, it should still satisfy longtime followers Battlefield-ers, especially since it's being released on PC as well as 360 and PS3."

Now how about we talk battlefield 1944?

Yi-Long5101d ago

... and I still play it every time I have the chance :)

Instead of BF1944, they should just release more maps for Battlefield 1943. It's my favourite game on XBL. I would hate to see more and more people leave it.

ipwnall5101d ago

It was rumored that more would be added after BFBC2...

Coffin875100d ago

i was also thinking.. what about another BF game that has nothing to do with bad company.
battlefield 3.. oh my this should get awesome.. if they manage to expand on the usual gameplay.

psycho3605100d ago

Well deserved. the orginal PC series 1942/DC/Vietnam etc ate years away for me and this was pretty good as well.

Forget 1944 i'd take BF:Vietnam over any 194x series.

Double Toasted5100d ago

Yeah, its a great game. I enjoyed it more than Bad Company. Weird...I know.

That Dice focuses more on the BC and regular Battlefield series on the PC. Loved 1943, but loved BC2 and BF2142 much more.

New maps are what I need. This game is a beast and totally deserves the achievement.

Solidus187-SCMilk5101d ago

Good to see their success.

But I found it interesting that it said:

"...along with EA becoming the #1 publisher on every platform except for Nintendo platforms. EA is the #1 third party publisher on those platforms however."

I guess that means that they took back the spot from activision? I guess thats good as Dead Space made me like EA enough, and Im not a big fan of activision lately. Take that KOtic.

EA has Skate and Battlefield / Activision has Tony Hawk and Call of Duty. My preference the last few years has been EA for these reasons. Everything else doesn't really bother me with these 2 companies. the rest of the games i play come from other publishers.

Well done EA and DICE for this great achievement. 1943 is the perfect companion to the Bad Company series. perfect for those times where you just don't have the energy required to play either bad company 1 or 2. absolutely love it.

raddbj035101d ago

kinda stopped playing after i picked up bad company 2. maybe i should hop back on if people are still playing.
