Battlefield 2:

Overall Rating: 9
Graphics: 10
Gameplay: 8
Ease of use: 7 + 2
Fun factor: 8 + 1

Graphics: The graphics in this game are top line. There is no glitching, for instance while in the grass it appears in front of you and doesnt go in and out. The graphics options allow you to make it so that there is no graphic lag however, you still enjoy the game.

Gameplay: While in game, there are a few keys to try and remember. The game is not friendly to all users, only those that primarily use the key board for movement and mouse for shooting. In most games, while remaping your keys, if you enter a "dupliucate value" or a key that is already binded to another action, the computer will simply replace the current key, and remove it from its old binding. Not here, nope, battlefield wants to be a pain in the ass and it tells you the key is already binded and it WILL NOT let you bind that key until you unbind it from its old action. For instance, I like to use "Mouse Button One" to move forward, however, its default funtion is Fire. Ok, so normally I would double click on the key for move forward, click the mouse button, then it will automatically remove it from fire and put it in move forward. In battlefield, you must first find where the key is binded, in this example, fire, and select it, rebind it to something that is not binded or hit "ESC" to unbind it, then go back to it later.

Ease Of UseREVISED: The game has a few glitches, and a patch was released close to the games release date, which is never a good sign. However, after it is patched, the game works fine. Time to time the servers might be full, (especially mid day) or it might have connection problems. Running with an active firewall takes some working out, but it is possible. 01/29/2006: Come to find out, that I dont need to run my firewall. Once I take it down, the game is easily used, log ons are sometimes fast and servers are always welcoming.

Fun Factor: If you can get playing, the game is great! It has you choose a certain role, (medic, support, engineer, etc.) and you get a certain package with that. Untis must work together, or they will more than likely fail. It gets annoying when your unit online, just runs ahead and doesnt bother with you, or you have your medic trying to take points alone. And in the single player mode, the bots stand around and do nothing! There are vehicles in the game and they are VERY fun to toy around with. 01/29/2006 Even better are the expansion packs being released, Like special forcer and european, which add more maps, more equipment, more badges medals and ribbons, and more vehicles.

Overall: Worth the money, and if you are good at these games, get it! The idea of rank on server is neat, however, you can ONLY make rank online, you cant have a single player character make rank. But the fun you can have is endless!
