Battlefield Bad Company 2

I bit the bullet and purchased a GameFly account.  The first game I rented was Battlefield Bad Company 2 because the multiplayer looked awesome.  I was all set to have some people over for the local split screen multiplayer like Halo and Call of Duty because they are so much fun to do a system link and get 6-8 people killing eachother.  But NOooo!  Battlefield Bad Company 2 does not have local splitscreen.  The only way you can multiplayer is online with Microsoft XBOX Live and even then every game I tried to play couldn’t find a host game (most likely since it’s fairly new and it was a Thursday night).

Of course nobody I know has this game so multiplayer is out of the question!  Plus who can afford to have 8 friends (or more) buy a $60 game just so you can multiplayer?!?  The campaign is awesome and the game play is superb with fantastic weapon choice and great vehicles but it’s not worth buying in my mind.  I’m glad I rented because this is one I would have bought and been very disappointed in feeling like it was not worth the money.  But for those of you who like the campaigns better than multiplayer or if all you want to do is online live multiplayer then this game will rock your world!  I’m just not that type.
