What I saw of Battlefield 2 at E3 last year impressed me; now there will be more emphasis on teamplay, medics will have a great purpose, and man, those graphics are gonna rock!
Tony "OUberLord" Mitera: With the unheard-of popularity that surrounded the Desert Combat modification for Battlefield 1942, it was almost a sure thing that Dice and EA would take the ball and run with it to create a stand-alone title of their own using the same premise. Battlefield 2: Modern Combat brings the Battlefield series up to speed with modernized vehicles, weaponry, and locations alongside a newer, more detailed engine.
