Battlefield 2 Modern Combat


EA orders its hit PC shooter series to report for duty on consoles

Battlefield 2: Modern Combat is the redheaded stepchild of the series, but what can you expect using current-gen console tech? The game definitely could've used some more development time to iron out its kinks, but at the same time it's instantly dated. Its graphics are as exciting as white rice served at room temperature, so what could EA do? As is, Modern Combat is a good game; nevertheless, Battlefield is still best played on PC, as console-minded shooter fans are up to their helmets in similar titles.
