Battlefield Bad Company 2 offers Vietnam thrills at a better price

Screw Blackops and heck, screw Activision. The Battlefield Bad Comapany 2 Vietnam DLC Map pack can be yours for $15 dollars (ack its a little pricey) and you can skip the $60 dollar investment for another Call of Duty yearly rehash. Also if you have the VIP access code from when you purchased the game you will get it all for free. As you can see from the video below your getting the same Battlefield with a nice 60's vibe makeover. Your going to get 5 maps: Hill 137, Vantage Point, Phu Bai Valley, Cao Son Temple, and the Battle of Hastings along with some new vehicles. I'm not advocating that the Vietnam war was a fantastic time in history, but throw some good multiplayer antics and I'm sold.



I've come late to the party when it comes to being a fan of Battlefield Bad Company 2, but overall I've think its offers something I don't see in a lot of first person shooters nowadays, teamwork. The game has a good balance of gameplay elements that work really well in a multiplayer arena. If you've haven't tried a match online, do yourself a service and give it a go, I'll take you on. My PSN name is IanAugust.

What do you think of the Battlefield series? 
Do you think the DLC is too expensive?

    YOU would find some way to bring up politics wouldn't you...

    Anywho, I've only played Battlefield 1943, and enjoyed it...
    Maybe one day I'll get the more fleshed out versions of the Battlefield games, because I really used to enjoy a game called Joint Operations, and it's pretty similar.

  3. :O I haven't touched a Battlefield since Battlefield 1942. Loved that game. Anyway this is really interesting to me. The vehicles make things a lot more interesting, and so does all the different jobs.

    The only thing that sucked was when your own team would blow up your plane as you tried to take off because you happened to get the plane before they did... I hope that's been fixed! Wait are there planes?

    Not if you play it like you do GoldenEye...
    OH SNAP! I went there! :)

    @Amado(Den)Bustos:
    There were planes in Battlefield 1943, but I don't know about these Battlefield Bad Company games.

    I don't think teammates in Battlefield 1943 could blow up their own planes, but I may be mistaken.
