    I just played the demo. Seems like a watered down version of BF 1942. It's still fun though. I just have a hard time playing FPS games on console.

    I think COD4 is better because there are no vehicles, and hardcore mode. I hate most FPS games because it takes a whole clip to kill a guy sometimes. Like in this game, you have to hit a guy with a sniper twice.

    I used to play Battlefield 2 PC, played for about two years, havn't played an online game since, but that game was classic. When and if I get more time I'm going to get this game.

    If you want realism, try either

    Operation Flashpoint II or ARMA II

    Both of those are pretty much one shot from any gun any you are crippled or dead.

    meanwhile, my 360 version is still throwing the same error. i got the ps3 one to work...but my trial is over. thing is...i don't like the ps3 controller compared to the 360 controller...so i won't buy it for ps3. i want to buy it for 360...but not if it is going to tell me i cannot connect to the ea server for the millionth time. it never worked and, after some research, i don't understand why it doesn't work. i was supposed to be able to tie my 360 gamertag to my EA account or something....except i never got the opportunity. EA's website won't let me do it if I log into my account. it says i have to launch the game from the console first and connect. i should see a disclaimer or something. all i see is a freaking error. bite me, EA!

    I downloaded the game, and it seems pretty good. Of course my 360 servers only allowed me to play once. I think I might go ahead and spend the $15. Seems like a deal during downtime.

    It works fine with the full game, the servers for the demo are probably overloaded.

    that didn't work, either. now i'm out 15 bucks and no gameplay at all because of cannot connect to EA servers but internet is fine. i even tried opening all the ports they mentioned...which shouldn't be an issue if ps3 worked anyway. wtf is this nightmare i am in? i just want to play the f-ing game, man. psss... .

    Edit: I guess after I purchased it...it did a quick check and changed some flag so the trial game would now become the unlocked game. it did not, however, reboot my 360. so, the unlock did not work at that moment but, after typing this post, i re-booted the b_tch and it worked. I can now connect and play with the full version. trial version was screwed up as it wouldn't show me "Terms and Conditions"...which was step right before you associate your gamertag to the EA account first time you play. it would just show me "cannot connect to EA server". whatever...that was fun. bad trial version. very, very bad. - Babu

    Everything was working fine. Come home today wanting to play it and it says "The game appears to be unavailable, please try again" over and over and over again every time I tried to quick connect or play air superiority. Wtf is going on now???? Dada...can you get in a game? They mentioned that the "Coral Sea" map was unlocked due to the 41,000,000 kill. Would be funny if it also broke the game! :D :mad:

    Edit: Finally got in a game...sheesh. lol

    I can't seem to get Wake Island. It just plays the same two maps over and over.

    You play the same map twice in a row as both axis and ally, then you change maps...so it takes 4 to get to Wake sometimes.
