  1. A booster pack that adds just enough to satiate hunger before a proper expansion is released. All BF2142 owners should own this. Cheap price, too.
  2. Northern Strike is a polished offering, a lot more than the token handful of stuff draped around the glinting trophy of new unlocks it could have been.

    Everything in Northern Strike is fine. None of it, however, is vital. [Apr 2007, p.65]

    Even if you never touch the new maps or vehicles or game modes (which you will), the skill advancements and extra items for each specialization alone are a tremendous reward that is available for the standard game modes and maps. What this doesn't do is address any core technical issues with the game.
  5. The quality of the content on offer is above cynical expectation - in fact, I'll come right out and say it: Northern Strike is a good expansion pack. [Apr 2007, p.79]
  6. 60
    This is decent but minimal new content that you'll want mainly because you're sick of the few maps you were given in the original game.

I played this game every day and every second of my life. The game was so good, i lved the Titan modus and the future. Hope they do a new Battlefield 2142 (Battlefield 2143). It would be really cool, because Battlefield 2142 was so amazing, its sad that they closed the servers. Full Review »
