    Bad review, Score is OK, i think that one is good. But if I must start with the SP, your teammates almost never help you, so it's like your playing alone, visuals, muah... Multiplayer, Boring....But if I look to BFBC 2? Looks Waaaaaaaaay much better then this one

    why does it seem that in ALL gameplay videos the players absolutely suck. its especially true for fps

    This review doesnt give the game enough credit, ive been playing this game since launch and its still fun, the multiplayer is amazing! every game plays out differently which keeps it fun. the only downside is that Australia doesn't have any servers so if ur not in America, your playing with a constant lag, grr....

    This game was the best game i ever played i mean come on who dose not like some destruction every once and a while. and the single player is alright personally i would say this gets a 9.2 but thats just me. GREAT BUY!!!!!

    This game is so underrated! If DICE had just included CQ and the extra maps, no doubt it would've got at least 9! Can't wait for the sequel!!! xD

    I want to play this extremely badly, if just for the destructable environments

    Love the game.
    However, I believe the Giant Bomb review sums it up far better. This review seems to be more describing the game rather than giving a critical opinion. Btw it got 5/5 on Giant Bomb reviewed by Jeff. And that's still before they added conquest and new Maps FREE.

    I'm surprised it wasn't a 9.0. This game is the best I think the one downside is the only game mode in the multiplayer is gold rush but now you can download conquest.
    I think they should add team death match. If they did that I would give it a 10.

    @xtremeflem2day

    RFG does not suck. It is a fantastic destruction game that rocks. But I agree that this does have better multiplayer than COD 4. Not that COD 4 is bad at all, I just preferred bad company.

  • xtremeflem2day

    Posted Jul 25, 2009 7:26 am GMT

    @Major_Mangus

    RFG sucks, graphics are worse than bad company, you jump way too high, there's barely any strategy, and as destructive as the environments are, its too easy to level a building and you might as well not have the structures, they just get in the way.

  • xtremeflem2day

    Kickass game, better multiplayer than cod in my opinion (and definitely more realistic) but 3 issues things that bugged me.
    1. Squad only chat???? come on why cant we talk to our whole team?
    2. When you are trying to take cover in the open battlefield, it can be very hard, and the lack of being able to crawl doesnt make it any easier.
    3. It always seemed in gold rush that the defenders won. maybe more reinforcements for attackers? or fewer vehicles for defenders?

    Definitely the best multiplayer though, very tactical, not just random run and shoot or camp like cod.

    to Igglepig. I bought this game at walmart for $20...and it wasn't even worth that much! I played it for a couple hours, and didn't even care to finish it. The destruction is NOTHING compared to RF:G. The controls feel very "wonkey," I don't know how else to put it. Shooting the guns just doesn't feel satisfying. The online isn't very good either (nothing compared to Battlefield 2), so don't waste your $20, and go out for a nice meal.

    he keeps emphasizing the "destructible environments", but this alone doesn't make a good game, it's superficial

  • carnage420666

    i bought this game expecting it to be better than it actually was. it kind of disappointed me. early in the story it is kind of boring but later in the story it picks up. i had already started playing the game before but then one night (or morning if you want to be technical) i played the game 6 straight hours, 4:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m., because when the story started to pick up, i wanted to finish it so bad, and i finally did. but there were moments when i thought it was going to be over but it kept going. pretty long single player mode.
