From what I have heard it's a little bit of both and all progress you make in the demo can be transfered to the full game.

I can confirm its on PS Store (EU)

Anyway

As a fan of Battlefield series, I more then welcome Battlefield Demo. I hope it will be my cookie for some fun online. Battlefield peaked in Battlefield 2 UNPATCHed, though I didn't try Bad Company to see if its an improvement, though with MGS4 i am sure it will be my infinite bag of chocolate chipped cookies.

Demo says its 2-24 Players Online, which is a downgrade to BF Franchise :(

6.2 - i think the sound is great
seemed more realistic

graphics aren't as good as cod4 though but the environments are better as a lot of the scenery is destructible

10 - Simply shocked
I would love to play this demo (not that I think it is a purchase for me) but due to the complete and utterly ridiculous lack of southpaw control options this is a none starter.

I am simply shocked this game doesn't have this mandatory (imo) control option....

DICE get your act together, because I don't want Mirrors Edge to have this over sight!

Shi+ if what you say is accurate I'm gutted, I had hope for this title. But from what you've say it sounds average as fuc.

If only CoD had destructable environments and vehicles in multiplayer. (do it quickly, I'll buy it, along with another 10 million gamers)

11.1 - This is awesome.
I don't understand what people want out of an FPS.

Destroyable stuff? Check. Better graphics than COD4? Check. Vehicles? Check. Huge maps? Check. Hectic fighting that doesn't degrade into spawn camping? Check.

Anyone who thinks that COD is better than BF:BC needs to get their heads out of Infinity Ward's ass, and into DICE's.

Seriously. After playing that demo, I'm BAFFLED by the people in this thread who actually think COD4 is better. I have never been baffled in my life until now. Now I'm baffled.

EDIT: This game is so great, I'll play only this demo until the real game is released in Japan, sometime in August.

BAFFLED.

I doubt that most people are with you dude. Maybe the little kids who don't understand how far game play has come since Wolf3D etc., and maybe the nerds who think that graphics should leap and bound rather than take baby steps.

But anyone, absolutely anyone, who has been playing FPSs for longer than 3 years, will look at this game in absolute wonder.

I should say anyone who doesn't have IW's peener in their mouth.

We know what good is, and this demo is good. If the game is anything like the demo, I'll buy two copies and send you one so you don't have to ask mommy for money.

Hmmm. She'd probably a bit older than you. She may break you.

Though if you're willing to try, apparently she likes young men.

Edit: Yes, we WILL see.

p.s. I get last word.
p.p.s. BF:BC rocks!
p.p.p.s. I am not nor have I ever been employed by DICE, EA, it's franchisees, franchisers, McDonald's, Dodge, or any of their affiliated companies, spokespersons, ad agencies, or families. I did work at Laser Quest though.

If COD4 is the best FPS you've ever played, you've never played an FPS on PC. I think maybe your expectations for BC were a bit too high. Because it's awesome.

Yes, I'm emotional about it. It would be a travesty if COD4, which has a horrible online lobby, short matches, no variety, and no vehicles, were to be considered a better game than this.

16 - i liked the demo, but...
i would like to see some kind of cover mechanic. I'm so addicted to that play style now, it's hard for me to play these type of games that don't give you much cover.

The game was entertaining though, and the graphics are impressive, i like the texturing on the character models. It's also great to note that they used some great color saturation in the environments, no heavy use of the gray color palette.

I'll have to wait and see about this one, i'll probably be playing NG2, kinda broke right now even though i had reserved it. Got to pay the rest of it off.

Anyway.... Game on people....
