    With a harrowing 16-mission single-player experience, and monstrous multiplayer arenas, this disc is worthy of your hard-earned per diem, grunt.

    If you can get past the low production values, you'll find a very satisfying game here.

    The Live options are up there with the best of them and cover everything from team support to Live stats and leaderboards. However, as with many titles that focus on the thrills of Live play, offline it is fairly run of the mill. The game's saving grace, though, is the huge scale of every battle.

    Overall, I kept wanting and trying to really love this game, but time and time again, one of the game's flaws would keep me from reaching that level of gaming bliss.

    There are plenty of other shooters on the market that are better than this game, and most of those shooters do both the single-player and multiplayer aspects of their game in a far superior manner.

    The single-player missions are fairly mediocre, especially in comparison to other shooters. If you really, really need to shoot virtual people in a virtual desert, then this'll do.

    For the game to be released now amidst a store full of next generation titles on the cusp of yet another generation of consoles is laughable. For them to be charging 49.99 is just plain offensive.

The lag is horrible for a game that was touted as having virtually no lag. The graphics are well shy of what other shooters have done. The Campaign isn't that fun. Some maps are so small that Spawn camping (Although you have like 3 sec invincibility) becomes a serious problem. When it starts to lag too much you get a "This Game Session Is No Longer Avalible", thing right across your screen which makes it difficult to snipe, sometimes when it lags like that you reload over and over and over, did I say over? Its a decent game, a game for being as old as it is should have been priced at 29.99. If I had a choice right now Id pick up Ghost Recon 2: Summit Strike over this just for the better gameplay less lag and great price tag.… Expand

    Please save your money. I made the mistake of buying it immediately upon the day of release, with hopes of playing with 49 others online. As Please save your money. I made the mistake of buying it immediately upon the day of release, with hopes of playing with 49 others online. As it turns out, this is a half-assed product with poor gameplay, netcode, even interface. Not to mention the graphics might have looked half-way decent 2 years ago. The online games constantly crash, and the maps are garbage...there really isn't much thats worth even renting this game for. Don't make the same mistake i did. Be patient and wait for Battlefield: Modern Combat.… Expand
