How could you hate this?
This game, in my eyes is possibly the best Battlefield game made. Sure the offline is not that great, but it's good for a bit of fun when your xbox live is down or you just feel like playing alone. The online though...
Wow, that is pretty much one of the only words to sum it up. You could say it is fantastic, you could say brilliant, but those words are not enough to describe the brilliantness of the online. Who wouldn't enjoy driving around in a convoy of humvees, only to see an enemy helicopter rise and blow that humvee up in front of you with a barrage of missiles, only for you to swerve left into a warehouse, being trapped and then watching your teammates back you up with tanks, or who wouldn't enjoy running around on foot charging in on the front line, firing off bullets as bullets wizz past your teams front line, with a few tanks behind you and a helicopter for air cover, only to run behind some cover from the onslaught of bullets.

The online game is different everytime you join a game, whether your a sniper, engineer, assault or support, that is only the half of the difference in games. The maps are huge, lots of players jump into one map and vehicles are everywhere, the experience is unforgettable, and a hard one to put down. You'll almost not want to pick it up again because you think the experience might not be as good as before... but it is.

The offline is rather hard and you need to have alot of patience for that, but it also has some fun. You will unlock sort of side missions, where you have to race around in humvees or fly a helicopter around the map.

Although the offline isn't great, the online is too good to miss, and that's why i gave it 5 stars. But remember, if you don't have xbox live, don't expect anything as spectacular as this...

underated game
I bought this game fairly recently and to be honest my initial thoughts of the game were not positive to say the least. The whole "hot swapping" feature in the game felt tacky and the ai seemed to be way to difficult to beat. i found it very frustrating. Eventually though after getting used to the controls and the hot swapping feature I have to say that this game is in a class of its own, when mastered, the hot swapping feature is essential for dominating the battle field and as for as knowing what your objectives are , just press pause and you are told exatly what must be done. the online mode is the real gem of this game though with tons of maps, vehicles and different classes so you'll be playing against people of a similar skill level as your self.there are a decent amount of weapons much more than you would find in ghost recon for example, and theres also a challenge mode which gives you various tasks to complete just for the fun of it.This is a great game to play ,but when compared to call of duty 2 its a completely different beast. its originality may put some people off, but when you get the hang of it you'll be hooked.

Really good game, Highly recommended
I got this game for the original xbox and was impressed greatly by the multiplayer, unfortunately, the single player part of the game got a bit repetitive and I ended up putting it down after about an hour and a half! But I am here to talk about the 360 version, which, in a word, is amazing! I managed to get my hands on a pre-sale copy, unfortunately, because EA haven't set up the Live service yet I haven't been able to play it on live. But the single player has obviously had more work from the outset than the xbox version. The graphics are amazing, I couldnt help but feel as if I was playing Ghost Recon: advanced Warfighter for a while though but this is definately better.
I also recently had the oportunity to play the online demo of battlefield 2: modern combat and I am simply amazed by the addictivity of this game. I played it solid for 2 hours before I had to turn it off simply because my batteries ran out in my controller and needed recharging. The graphics are great and I cant fault them!
I recommend this game for anyone who like mass multiplayer games and who like the FPS genre in general! Even if you have the original xbox version I recommend you get this game!
