I didn't care much for the original Bad Company (mind you I only played it once at a friend's) but I thoroughly enjoyed BF1942, BF2, BF2142 and BF1943 (before getting tired of the three maps).

This will be a day one purchase for me and will likely be my main FPS (at least until MOH is released).

Any rough date for MOH?

With regards to the Limited Edition version of BFBC2, am I correct in thinking that the bonuses are unlockable through regular gameplay? You just get them early with the LE?

As ic1male correct. I dont think the LE is anything but a standard game box with a code inside. No other extras.

To be honest I want to earn everything myself.

In the sound options there's an option called "war tapes"

"War Tapes": Creates an extremely aggressive soundscape setting simulating documentary style war movies."

This just from their twitter

@locust9 Will the xbox 360 demo for BF:BC2 be the same map used in the PS3 beta? Any news on when the demo hits?

@Definity_ yes port valdez... And soon.

Now the PS3 beta was "Arica Harbour" so it could be either of those I guess.
 
Some info on hardcore mode

What’s this Hardcore mode all about, then?

For Hardcore mode, it’ll apply to all four game modes, and it’ll be no kill-cam, friendly fire is on so you can kill your own team-mate accidentally or intentionally, much more realistic damage from weapons… Basically everything will feel much more realistic and it’s focused on those intense moments; it’s going to be do or die and you’ve really got to be on your toes. There’ll also be a huge reduction in the HUD elements, so no crosshair, so if you want to aim and hopefully you’re not screen dotting, it’ll be really important to use the iron sights. Guys aren’t going to be shooting from the hip; you just can’t in reality. It’s to make it feel like a much more realistic version of Battlefield. We know there’s a group out there, and they may not be biggest but there are guys who want to experience that type of gameplay, especially from a game like Battlefield where you can have vehicles. Of course, when you do get in a vehicle, all those crosshairs and visual data is built into the game and it’s modelled from reality, just like the guns, so when you bring it up to your eye that’s what you see, and it’s the same in the vehicles. We’re not going to take away things that would make sense in the real world – I guess would be the better way to describe it. There’s nothing that would break that immersion in reality, no enemy icons, no mini-map, and this will also be a ranked game mode.
