The trophies look ok though, but I don’t fancy having to complete a game again just to unlock the trophies I like the idea of the trophies and I read on IGN (or Eurogamer) that they prefer the trophies over achievements and the leveling up system as long as sony uses it properly, also ingame messaging was already in many games, especially 1st party - eg: Pain, Resistance, Motorstorm, Warhawk, MGS4... Ive also read that it will scan your save files and give you trophies appropriately with more coming with later game updates (eg burnout trophies come shortly after cagney)but Sony will later stop save sharing so basically: grab as many saves as possible for a head start on trophies! :D Back on topic am I the only one who realised this: <b>badcompany.ea.</b>com/ Notice it? EA = Bad Company hehe :D I hate the europe map with the greenery and the barns (forgot the name) the map is basically a frag fest then ends up with you battling on almost flat ground after about 10 mins of destruction I watched the videos on the playstation.blog and i’m disappointed that it took Sony so long to put an entire XMB in when they could have released the messaging system at least a bit earlier and added onto it later.

Hehe During the final days of my rent (I was mainly playing MGS4 during the time) I particuly enjoyed knifing and acquired a huge amount of dog tags, I even attempted to knife my own team with some negative effects involving them coming back in a tank... XD Triple Post! Hehe

I've played multiplayer a hell of a lot and it never gets old for me, there's so many different possibilities for each map - you might flank across the river on one game, but on the next you might have blown up a house attic where a sniper is hiding and so you have to fight your way through instead. I haven't done the Find all Five challenge, you can see where EA have had their influences :) I didn't play the demo that much so I can't get the Uzi either. I watched the videos on the playstation.blog and i'm disappointed that it took Sony so long to put an entire XMB in when they could have released the messaging system at least a bit earlier and added onto it later.

I loved the mines for the demolition class and using the C4 on the bridge so many noobs cross on the map Oasis, my main critism with the game is fast deaths and little replay value (after you played each map about 15 times) Also did you do the Find all Five challenge? I managed to get all of them except for the sniper (I didnt preorder) I may purchase the game once the update with conquest comes, im currently excited for update 2.40 on PSN tommorow with the trophies :) Yet again another double post :-

Nice :) Yeah to be honest MGO isnt as fun as battlefield, but MGS4 story is just soo... epic... It is a perfect storyline fit for a multi-BAFTA winning film I have played many vehicle based games and for some reason battlfield bad company just didnt "do it" for me, for example I hate the helicopters and artillery... “Feel free to double post Matt, more comments for my blog ;) I’ve not played MGS4, but the MGO beta was annoying when that came out.”

I hated it - its basically a watered down version of battlefield 2 with destruction, red faction II on PS2 was a lot better in my opinion - but im basing all this from a weeks rent Meh..
