As you probably already know by now, the Battlefield: Bad Company 2 multiplayer demo is now available on Xbox Live – while there is a closed beta on PS3, and a beta due to start on PC, the demo itself is, as far as I'm aware, only available on Xbox 360 – and I have to say, it feels great to be back in the Bad Company fold again.

When the original Bad Companycame out, I couldn't put the game down because of its multiplayer. For me, it was a far superior game to Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. After having spent a little bit of time with the demo for the sequel, I'm fairly positive that I'll feel the same way about the Bad Company 2.

What I loved most about the original game, was that it wasn't just another twitch FPS, and that it gave you plenty of options to carve a nice little niche for yourself, even if you were horrible at FPS's. For example, I became adept with the “specialist” class, and rather than running and gunning – which I wasn't great at – I had a good deal of success by tagging tanks with the magnetic dart gun (allowing my team-mates to destroy them with ease), and by laying C4 traps and waiting for players/vehicles/tanks to pass over them for some extremely easy, and satisfying (not to mention devious) kills.

After playing the demo, I cant wait for this game to come out.  Roll-on March 5th, because this game is definitely a day-one purchase for me, and I hope to meet some of you guys on the battlefield.

The varied gameplay is definitely what I love most about that Battlefield series, and I agree, it feels great to be playing it again. I might be passing ol' MW2 along to make room for this as my next online shooter.
