PS3 games - Bad Company

[knowabit]

My husband has the Call of Duty games but his favourite is Bad Company. The guy in the Game shop told me that the most similar he would like is Operation Flashpoint-Red River.
Just wanted to know if anyone had played both and would agree??
Thanks.

[knowabit]

Yes, that is the one he has. I know he buys extra maps for it online??? (I dont know much about this stuff!) Was trying to think of something the kids could get him for Fathers Day.
Do you think I should NOT bother with Red River then?? Dont want to waste £40!!!
Thanks.

Thanks for your help x

Nothing compares to Battlefield, cant wait till the end of the year for the next one!!

Being a late arrival to the Bad Company 2 table, the race is on for me to reach level 50 before the beta lands.

Probably most similar to Bad Company is the last Medal of Honor game. The multiplayer was done by the team responsible for Bad Company. Best of all you can pick it up new for less than £20.

He doesn't like the Medal of Honour games.... maybe he is just very fussy!! LOl x

[Mattk]

The last medal of honor was a new take on the series i.e. a reboot.
trust me it is very similar to bad company. i think he will like it - i did!

Matt, join the club mate! Im trying to get to 50 as well but it is a slow process, im only a 42 (i think!), what rank are you?

[Mattk]

Sooper, I'm a high 39. I reckon I can do a rank a fortnight so it will be close.
I lost a lot of XP by sticking with the M14 too long. I stuck with it long after the platinum award. I currently favour the MG36 - can't believe how easy it is to get kills compared with the M14.

I havent played it for a couple of weeks as i was on LA Noire and now im on Fable III , a freebie for renewing my Xbox live subscription which was nice i thought!
Yeah, you gotta move onto another weapon as soon as you Plat it up, its tricky though as you get used to it and its handling etc. Ive still got quite a bit to do on the Sniper class but i dont really enjoy it that much. Being a Medic in a good team will give the most points but i prefer being an Engineer if ive got the choice and it fits in with my team. Lets hope we can both get there!

[Mattk]

I mainly snipe on Atacama when attacking. As soon as it starts I sprint to the edge of the spawn area to mortar the VADs so that our chopper stays airborne and then carry on sniping from there. Ive got gold on most sniper rifles but not on 2 of them. I also snipe when starting defending Harvest Day to take down the UAV pilot.
I like mixing up the classes but rarely play as assault. Im usually engineer for vehicle heavy maps and medic for others. Rank 40 tonight I reckon.

I'm also playing LA Noire and am now starting the laborious chore of maxing gamerscore......gamerscore a blessing and a curse!

[Sooper]

I completed LA Noire last night (thankfully!) but it ends very abruptly and i hadnt finished finding all of the cars and newspapers etc. I cant be bothered to replay it now so i didnt get as many achievements as i would have liked but hey ho!
Fable III and back to Battlefield for me, im not sure that there are anymore decent game releases for a while now?

He's married and he's still playing computer games? He should be focusing his free time on you and doing things together.

[Mattk]

Nothing ony my radar until BF3 now so BC2 and the occasional LA Noire trip for me.
I've driven 80 of the 95 cars but it is going to be painful finding the last 15. I'll also be buying the Rockstar pass which gives the 2 pre-order cases + the one coming later this month. 800MS seems quite reaonable....for a change.

[Sooper]

Im trading mine at the weekend as my mates told me that they got £25 so im gonna do that and get some dosh!
I think GOW3 is out before BF3 so im gonna be getting that, always enjoy that plus i hear it has 4 Player Co-op which should be a laugh with mates,

When you are married, you can do some things on your own!! and i'd rather he played his games!! LOl xx
