Sweet, I shall get this at lunch time. Thanks for the heads up.

Be interesting to see how it compares to the PS3 beta and also how it compares to MW2.

No worries

Zensuji · 28 Jan 2010 at 11:10

Wow......booted it up straight in to a game and I love it. Wierd playing a game with recoil again

steveo · 28 Jan 2010 at 11:20

downloading on xbox now

when is the demo hitting the ps3 :confused:

ic1male · 28 Jan 2010 at 11:56

Wonder if the 360 version will use the EDRAM and provide a modicum of AA. The PS3 didn't seem to have any.

P.S. Does anyone know what maps/modes this demo is featuring? Is it the same Arica Harbour "Bomb Rush" level?

ic1male · 28 Jan 2010 at 12:09

Demo is PORT VALDEZ "Rush" mode.

Oh my. First five seconds of starting the demo and my jaw is on the floor!

Nymins · 28 Jan 2010 at 12:10

Yea the AA in the PS3 beta was awful. Going to check the demo out now if its finished.

ic1male · 28 Jan 2010 at 12:13

I absolutely HATE the way they've removed the health counter and gone for the "bloody" screen look like nearly everything else these days.

Ur round next · 28 Jan 2010 at 12:22

Im downloading demo now its 1.35GB going to take me a while on a 2MB conection :/

steveo · 28 Jan 2010 at 12:32

lol first game with 25 kills and 2 deaths 2 bases destroyed and i joined about half way through, bloody love it might part ex MW2 for it

ic1male · 28 Jan 2010 at 12:40

It is a LOT more fun than MW2. I'm getting in a muddle - the control scheme has been altered and I'm still pressing the buttons for BC1 which is resulting in many deaths for me.

There's no AA. It doesn't look bad at all though.

Yes, I'm quite pleased. It's still using the funny dithering from BC1 and GTA:IV which is mildly offputting but not a big deal.

EDIT: Is this demo coming to PSN today, too?

KNiVES · 28 Jan 2010 at 12:59

I hope so, it's unfair if it isn't, and I don't feel like paying the Live subscription.

edit: http://www.el33tonline.com/past/2010/1/19/bad_company_2_demo_on/ hints at a demo for both platforms, so here's to hoping
