She's Got Game

So, I am completely obsessed with Battlefield: Bad Company 2. 

A lot of people get annoyed with the laggy servers and the developers, but to me... the concept alone of BF:BC2 completely overrides all of this.



I am also reviewing this for the Xbox 360 game, I know a lot of people have been having problems with the PC game.
So why do I love this game so much?

1. It is much more casual than Halo 3 or MW2.  While they have Squad Deathmatch and other competitive games, there is also just Conquest (where you capture base points) and Rush (destroying MCOM stations).  You can't really set up tournaments around these, so they're mostly just for fun.
2. You can only talk to your 4 member squad, compared to your entire team.  While a lot of people may not like the sound of that, I love it.  You can spawn on your squad members, and you end up sticking as a team compared to other FPS games.  You even get "bonus" points for doing things with your squad, such as destroying a vehicle.
3. Wait... I just mentioned vehicles. VEHICLES! Oh wow, they are so much fun.  Occasionally you'll get a vehicle that can be OP, but for the most part, wow.  They're fun to be in, and even more fun to destroy.
4. Fun achievements! My favorite one? "The Dentist." You have a repair tool as an engineer, and you have to head shot someone with it.

Some annoying things though, the lag has gotten much better since their last patch, but you still hit lag spikes here and there, and some guns are ridiculously OP if you can aim well.  For example, an NS shotgun can one shot you pretty easily.

So, if you are looking for a casual, really fun, FPS, then BFBC2 is AMAZING.  You don't even have to listen to the rest of your squad if you don't want to - they won't really care!

They also have some sweet DLC.  The new Onslaught mode is a lot of fun, and they have SPECACT kits that open up new achievements.

So, have you played, and what do you think?
