I didn’t like the first Bad Company game, but it was the first Battlefield game I ever played and didn’t realize that I was supposed to be ignoring the single player campaign. I had only rented it for a couple of nights and hadn’t touched the multiplayer so I wasn’t very impressed. I read the IGN review for the PS3 version of BFBC2 yesterday, and it actually sounds pretty impressive. I think I’ll give the series another shot and rent the sequel…and this time I won’t neglect online play.
