I bought Battlefield Bad Company 2 for 6.75! And Now I'm Done With It! :)

Of the modern warfare, unrealistic, fun fun in the Sun multiplayer shooters, Battlefield Bad Company 2 is critically considered the best. This is so because the NYTimes video game critic Seth Schiesal said so, and he is God.

Gleefully I waited four hours for BBC2 to down and load onto my PC, and, after playing it for ten hours, I am glad to say that I am never going to play it again.

"Why?" I, my only reader, ask myself as I read this post I've written. Well, it's because I get it. I played it, played every map, understood that the weapons you unlock are pretty similar (with the main difference being that some are good and some are suicide). The game sounds great over a sub-woofer. And the coolest thing about the game is that you can blow up everything except people. Wait. Actually, that's lame. Also I just remembered that, even when I played badly, I ranked among the top five on my team because I'm awesome (this is not good because it means that basically I'm at the top of the game and have no skill-based progress to make. Being awesome sucks :(

Anyways, I'm done with it. I don't want to learn how to fly the helicopters. And also I don't like how the game makes me feel sick after playing it for an hour (this is a big turn off for some people). I think it may be because, now and then, the frame rate dips under 30fps. Or maybe it's because I keep feeling disoriented while playing, since everything during battle constantly changes, causing me to focus super intensely, causing me to stop breathing, causing my brain to have damage. Could be that.

Any who, I'm done with it. I'm not going to play it ever again. Unless one of my friends wants to play it with me, or until I can get its Vietnam War-themed expansion for a discount. My friends and I could form one of those four man squads, and not talk to each other because talking is too distracting and leads to failure.
