    Same here, I'm absolutely horrible at FPS's on consoles. On PC though I'm god-like. ;)

    Man, this game is AWESOME, but I miss the mouse and keyboard so bad, I am just not good with a controller doing FPS's...there is a whole generation of kids who just have no idea how much better FPS's are on the PC...

    personally, I just think it is more thrilling with a controller. Clicking someone dead just doesn't do it for me. I also suck with keyboard controls, they are awkward to me and I always have to look down to see what I am doing, I don't have to do that with a controller.

    Check THIS OUT !!!!

    A device that let's you hook up a mouse and keyboard to your 360 and map the buttons to your keyboard...so you get true FPS controlls....if I do this, the guys in BF1943 have no chance.

    :D

    ah the demo only lets you play 30 minutes :mad:

    I remember the Wake Island map from Battlefield 2. I think I'm gonna go ahead and buy this game.

    I need some input for an Xbox 360 game decision.

    NBA Live '09 or NBA 2K9

    My deal is i convince myself to buy a basketball game every 3-5 yrs or so convincing myself it'll be a blast. I don't recall ever getting as invested in an NBA game as a shooter.

    So, which one or neither?

    I think it rotates each round so you do one round as Japan and the other as US.

    2K9 but I would advise you to wait for 2K10 if you can.

    EA totally botched the launch of this game. They are ill-prepared for the flood of online users. Surely, they had to have anticipated this. Many people, like myself, cannot even play in a game because of an error "Unable to Connect to EA Online Server". And, there is no fix that I am aware of. Nice...sell a game you cannot even play because it's online.

    I guess I will wait this fight out faking an injury and hanging at the hospital. Hey...at least I can play the tutorial. :rolleyes:

    I've been playing it on the PS3 and have had no problems with servers. This game is crazy fun- i'd say for 15 dollars- you can't go wrong :cool: -

    I just got this on PSN and I agree with the above poster: $15 for some crazy fun. My PSN name is MMcAfee if anybody would like to play sometime.

    I guess I'll try it on the PS3 then. 360 isn't cooperating at all.

    Amazingly fun game. Definitely worth $15. Heck I'd buy it for $60 if it had a couple more maps :p

    All in all, if you have an extra $15, and you like battlefield. Get this game. Fo sho'.

    Gave it a go. It is fun but man I feel bad for y'all 360 users. Warhawk was SOOOOOOOO much better.

    this is just an arcade game. cod4 and stuff is obviously a lot better. But this is almost identical to Warhawk imo.
