I've been playing BFBC2 beta for a bit since i pre-ordered through steam. I"ve been jumping from this and AVP for my multiplayer goodness

What are your opinions and comparisons for BFBC2?

In comparison to what? If you are refering to Bad Company 1, I can't say much since i've never played the first one =/

Right now, from the beta, i can say they picked a BAD mode to try and show the game off.

It's called Rush and it's roots are basically Attack vs Defend.

The Defending side has two com stations that they must defend while attack must either set a charge or straight up blow the damn building this thing is in to Kingdom come.

After these two stations are downed the Defenders are moved back to a fallback base where they repeat the same process until they reach the end of the map.

This, of course, leads to a LOT of camping most of the time with just a bunch of recon guys sniping.

This isn't always the case but it can get a little annoying if you prefer up close assault action.

I like the game a LOT so far though. The fact that there is structural damage to the point that a fucking building can collapse on me if there isn't enough support caught me by surprise one day and left me in awe ever since.

My buddy Dash likes to do "How To's" for games.  He did two for the BC2 Beta.  One for Medic, one for Engineer.

That, is awesome.

Is someone hosting a server now?

The original emulator developer has a barebones server up and running.  There's not much you can do besides chat and run around Richland.  Some times chat packets get lost, so occasionally you'll only hear one side of a conversation.

Progress is being made, little by little.

That's still cool that you can get in the same server as others, though.

very cool. Nostalgia ftmfw.

Demon's Souls

One of the best games ever made.

I think that one game may push me to the edge to put money aside for a PS3 >_<

[Strod]

It's one of the main reasons I bought mine aside from God of War and Metal Gear Solid.

Damn, I'm falling behind on PS3 games.  I still haven't beaten Killzone 2, Resistance 2, or MGS 4.

To make things worse, I would like to pick up Demon's Souls, God of War III, Yakuza 3, and Heavy Rain in the near future.  Speaking of Heavy Rain, has anyone played the demo?  I found it to be quite interesting and unique.  

Fucking videogames...they consume time and money...ruthlessly.
