Gamervision says, "The Battlefield: Bad Company 2 demo was a huge success, with over 2 million players doing battle on the fields of Port Valdez. Part of the game's success is due to the excellent controls found in BC2. Some would even argue that the shooting action in the demo is the tightest ever seen on a console game with a console controller. The only thing that would have made the aiming even more precise would have been a mouse and keyboard control scheme. As it turns out, DICE was close to bringing us just that."
Cultured Vultures: In the spirit of preserving some kind of history of this industry, we’ve decided to list some of the best games that you just simply can’t get hold of digitally at the minute.
I just started playing Spec op. I've had it for years on steam and forgot about it. Such a good game.
Honorable mention to the excellent Driveclub, one of the best racing games of all-time and one of my favourite games ever.
Outrun Online Arcade, Sega Rally Online Arcade, After Burner Climax... all good stuff. I keep my 360 hooked up to play these as well as the TMNT games that were also delisted.
wow...I have all of them except the Nintendo ones either in physical or digital version.
Also..Deadpool the Game is missing on that list.
Battlefield Bad Company 2, Dead Space 2, Crysis 3, and a handful other EA games have finally had their online services shut down.
I had no idea that Bad Company 2 was still running, and only now that I know, I want to jump on! 😥
BF1943 is the only online MP game that I was genuinely interested in. Been playing since launch 14 years ago. Hate that I couldn't put in as much time to play as I'd hoped for during the final week.
Dead Space 2...... I wasn't even aware that had multiplayer. Nevermind that it was apparently one of their best multiplayers!
Dead Space 2 multiplayer had been hanging on for years - I'd boot my PS3 up to see some familiar names in lobbies. This will definitely be missed!
EA: "As we close in on 15 years since the release of Battlefield 1943, and Bad Company™ 1 & 2, we are announcing that their journey is coming to an end."
This reminds me... I have ME on my PS3 hdd. Never really played it, but it was free.
On PC I don't think it's much of a problem but I'm sad to see BF43 being shut down. I haven't played it in a while since it's stuck on PS3, but i preferred it way more over BF3. It was the lack of invisible barriers which made it better for me.
Does anyone play the last BF anymore? I searched crossplay servers and it was 20 people the most on all the servers? Can never find a game
"Some would even argue that the shooting action in the demo is the tightest ever seen on a console game with a console controller."
For an FPS, YES. I can't describe it, but it just feels... Right. Ya, know? And I'm mainly a TPS kind of guy.
As for the Mouse/keyboard: If they were to implement it, it would definitely need its own game type/mode, separate from the normal controller players as a balancing issue. It would be nice to have the option, but I am an avid hater of WASD!! :P
"While there once was a time when consoles like the SNES and PS1 supported mouse and keyboard control, we haven’t seen one for a home system since the Dreamcast."
Obviously, there has been Final Fantasy 11 for both the PS2 and the XBOX 360....that supports Keyboard and mouse
But in case you are going to say that you meant FPS...then I should direct you to UNREAL TOURNAMENT 3 (PS3).
