Valentines Day Battlefield, Bad Company.

So those of you confused by the title I chose, its kind of a mixed topic post. Its my Valentine's Day review, and Battlefield Bad Company 2 review. not related I know, but hey, what can i say, its all in a day. First topic... Valentine's Day!

Ready, GO!

So first off, those who complain about Valentine's Day being an evil day for singles, I beg to differ, and I have grounds to differ. I have spent all the V-Day's of my life (though, in reality, its not that long thinking about it...) as a single guy (yes, I Ladiesman is single) and the ones that have sucked the most, where I had nobody else to chill with.

This year, not to bad at all, quiet enjoyable actually. This year I decided to be proactive and I got some friends(Cinderella, Prince, and this girl down the hall whom I haven't given a totally new code name yet) and we all chilled in my room and watched movies. We actually watched TWO movies, I know that's a lot of movies in one night, especially since we started at 11... AT NIGHT! SCARY! but we lived, thankfully. I know right? We watched P.S. I love you followed by 27 Dresses. Everybody crashed at one point, including myself during 27 Dresses, it was sad state of affairs. Though, towards the end woke up, then we chatted after the movie ended for like 2 hours, crazy long in boy hours trust me (usually a conversation with a boy lasts like 10 minutes tops, ask any girl that has a man friend.)

Can anybody out there guess what we talked about? any takers? you in the back! No, I'm sorry, we didn't talk about a pirate ninja epic space battle, we talked about cool foods! It was awesome, cause by the time we finished, I was hungry, I mean really really hungry. I was tempted to start gnawing off my arm, much like NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM *huge breath* NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM! Now, that sounds more epic if you imagine me talking and spazzing much like the cookie monster.

Now, from here I transfer to my review of Battlefield: Bad Company 2...

Battlefield: Bad Company 2 review initiated:

When I first picked up the controller to play this demo (yes, still in demo stages) I was thinking to myself "how on earth am I going to play a flippin' shooter on a PS3 controller, its unheard of for a Play Station to be good at a shooter, the controller just isn't right for it." I was very soon proved wrong. Not only is the Play Station 3 set up well for it, but it works and the game is good!

At first go, Prince just handed me the controller and said "here, play it," with a confused look on my face, I proceeded to press a few buttons, attempted to do something totally bad ass and failed miserably. In stead I managed to run full sprint into a wall and then managed to keep magically sprinting with my face pressed so far into the wall that even the wall was like "Hey, I can see your eyeball." From there my awesome streak continued and I managed to throw a grenade into the wall which then managed to bounce THROUGH me and blow up at my feet and kill me. Not only is the humiliation of blowing yourself up not bad enough, but the game taunted me with big letters that said EPIC FAIL, and at that point I wanted to rage quit life.

But I endeared my own torture, killed myself a few more times, and by the other players. Then a miracle happened.. I capped a hoe and claimed victory! I proceeded to jump up and dance like an idiot, making a further fool of my self, but enjoyed it. I then changed magically into a sniper, don't ask me how I suddenly learned how to use a sniper rifle, but I did! Then I used this magical sniper and zoomed in an centered the reticule on a guys head and fired, I was about to scream victory, then it didn't kill them and I then was caught with a stupefied look on my face that begged to say "but.. but... but.. the thingy, it was on his face, and then I did the fire thing and it was supposed to go WHOOOOSH! and knock that stuff up... but but..." and to my avail, I was then sniped in the head. Try number 2, I aimed a little higher and I thought, maybe I had to account for gravity, BINGO! VICTORY IS MINE! capped another hoe.

Slowly and surely you soon start to develop a a nac for the, at least this game doesn't have a learning curve like your trying to climb up the side of a cliff made of ice with only a toothpick as an aide, cause that my friends, sucks. Over all the game is fantastic so far, the graphics are superb, the physics mimic real life, and everything seems to flow really well. The only thing that I see as needing adjustment is the voice over system... its spotty and have no idea how it works at all. So there you have it, Battlefield: Bad Company 2 is a good game that expanded on the battlefield series with out trying to hard with all these pretty unrealistic gadgets that make the game so unbalanced because you have nukes and laser beams flying everywhere creating a path of destruction. But instead an even balance of teamwork, weaponry, and cool stuff to make it an enjoyable game, not one that you'd rather being rolling around in a pit of spikes than playing the game.

P.S. This post took me for freaking ever to write, that is why this is long after Valentine's Day, stupid college work...
