Game Informer magazine march 2010.
• Graphics
The heavy use of particle effects in the desert sandstorms and mountain peak blizzards adds a wild card elements to firefights.
• Sound
From head-rattling explosions to the clatterof bullet cassings hitting the ground, this is the best sound design in the genre.It's so detailed you can hear the footsteps of soldiers approaching from behind.
• Playability
Smoother aiming and tightened vehicle controls improve the moment-to-moment experience, and the new health regeneration system greatly aids the pacing of the single-player campaign.
• Entertainment
A vastly improved single-player campaign complements some of the best tactical multiplayer action on the planet
• Replay value
High
Score: 9.5 - Second opinion: 9.5
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
Nice review. Looking forward to this game. Too bad I already knew what score they were giving so it wasn't really a surprise to me.
This game will be ace.
Edit: Ha.
By the way, did they play the full MP or not? Review seems early, is there an embargo or something?
Not surprised DICE gets the job done and nicely as well.
- "Review seems early, is there an embargo or something?"
I guess this is a exclusive review.
- "did they play the full MP or not?"
Yes, they did.
