DEMO sucks right? YES Graphics look weak right? YES
But then if you watch the 4 videios of IGN.com playing, it looks on par with GRAW (Not quite s sharp) So maybe the Demo is an early build or just weak

Well considering how many times the game and demo has been pushed back it puts doubts in peoples minds.
Well I had the chance to be in a server all by my self. The graphics in my opinion are awesome. Sure the shadows suck, but honestly who cares?? The level they put on the demo is one of the worst ones in my opinion. If you ever get the chance to just look at the environment, please do. Because your opinion about the graphics may just change. Go shoot up a brick wall and have a look at the damage you left behind. Take a few pop shots at the asphault. Shot a couple bullet holes into a hummer. The cool effects are their, you just dont have time to enjoy them in the heat of the battle. If you want to see an AWESOME video go here..... http://xboxmovies.teamxbox.com/xbox-360-hi...iler-2-in-480p/ its much better than those IGN ones.

my opinion the demo was horrible in both gameplay and graphics thats one i wont be getting.
Nice job again EA
Nice job again EA
I am actually pretty fond of this game.
I played it a little on the XBox, and I like the improvements on the 360.
My biggest gripe about GRAW is how long it takes to actually get in a game.
BFMC seems to win out in this regard.
Now I just need to convince my friends to pick it up.

what do you mean. It doesnt take long at all to get into a game in GRAW maybe ranked matches but not public
well if its an early build then maybe the final product might be good..
(Go shoot up a brick wall and have a look at the damage you left behind. Take a few pop shots at the asphault. Shot a couple bullet holes into a hummer.) ive seen this done in all games lately so its not really impressin me
one thing is to make a pc game to a console never works...look what happened to half life 2..they thought they were gonna go big on consoles but no....
im a graw fan and as far as server goes its all up in the air
graphicaly this game look like an xbox version of the game with nice try ok graphics but not next gen and what kills it for this game is the REALISTIC portion of the game.. sorry it dont cut it for me
EA has lots of money and technology but they dont put it in any of their games... FIGHT NIGHT is the only one that got madd love on 360....
so if i were to play a FPS shooter i would go to with GRAW hands down and ill stick with my PC version of BF2..
thats just my two cents

i find this game quite fun and excited. i did hear this was an earlier demo and not yet the final product, becuase there are some graphical issues. like shading. also this is a more of a run and gun game, unlike GRAW which is more tactical. it is a faster paced shooter
the game blows...i dont plop down 60 bux on ok games
No its not "ok" but its in fact a great game. It does in fact get hard the higher rank you go, but that normal in every game. You just gotta learn the tricks of the trade and snipe those crazyass sob's.
i had a lot of fun playing the demo, i could care less about how nice the shadow from my balls looks, it was fun
honestly tha demo for tha xbox was amazing besides tha glitch where after 2 games it reseted but i mean if ur thrashing a game before it comes out then what is tha purpoise u havent yet gotten an idea of it maybe tha graphics could change tha playing physics just wait and then bash
its not a glitch your only allowed two rounds with the demo
i played the final build and its nothing amazing, taking out a sniper on top of a four story building with a shotgun (1 shot). and it has the most retarded AI ive seen in quite some time

oo i thought xbox magazine said it was a glitch sorry i wasnt sure but i thought it was pretty fun whenu got 22 people in tha room completly full everyone attacking but i mean i played tha single player game wasnt exciting as multiplayer cause u get surprised of what can happened
dont get me wrong i love the gameplay but the graphics and physics could definately use some work
yeah but i mean honestly after playin like rainbow six 3 an this game i honestly think if they fix up graphics and physics this game could be tha next big hit for tha 360 even tho its a huge hit for tha pc
I didn't think the graphics were that bad; the gun models and reloading animation was good. I just wish the demo was 'lefty' friendly. I just cannot play with you right handed freaks controls. 
The demo was the first time I've played Bf2. Its a lot of fun, though most people don't know what they are doing.
I think the snipers are somewhat unbalanced with the laser targeting. They always hide by the silo over where flag 3 is and blanket any tank/chopper that comes by.

I don't know about balls, but it is fun.
The balancing seemed pretty good. Sure snipers are one shot kills, but a 155mm Sabot round from an M1A2 will quickly put an end to their camping.
UGH! This was horrible!! 
I'll stick to the very superior pc version. Man, it's like they screwed it up on purpose to keep the pc game on top. From the graphics to the changed/altered classes and movement, all bad. Sucks so bad, I was hoping for it to be as bad as the pc....

The Bottom Line
Undoubtedly, Modern Combat gives you a lot to do, between the single-player Campaign, the various Challenges and what will hopefully be durable multiplayer gameplay. The need to spend a lot of time trying to keep your reckless AI soldiers from rushing headlong into the spray of enemy bullets is frustrating, but it’s what sets this arcade-style game from being confused with the hardcore strategy offered by a game such as Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter. That’s not necessarily a black mark for Modern Combat, but if you’re looking for a chess match, you’ll probably be disappointed by what’s instead feels like the kind of war game you played with toy soldiers as a kid in the backyard—lots of bodies flying around willy-nilly and lying face first in the dirt.
Of course, there’s also the fact that, despite the face lift, this is still essentially the same game that came out a few months ago on Xbox. Better looking and sounding, but little fresh in the way of content. That makes it feel more like it was quickly put together for the Xbox 360 user base—a common occurrence when a game system is newly released.
All that makes it hard to recommend for purchase, but it’s truly a matter of personal taste. If you haven’t played any other console version of Modern Combat and/or you’re looking to boost your Gamerscore with some achievements, you may want to add it to your collection. I’d just as soon wait for the next—and not rehashed—Battlefield to show up.

Wheres the fools that argued with some of us saying it wouldnt be almost the same as the xbox version and was going to resemble the pc version?
I could put up with a lot of things in the demo like smoke flowing under pavement and having to go prone from crouching to stand back up until I got fragged by an air strike while in the middle of one of those metal trailers. 
I played the game on live for about an hour or so on Sunday and thought it was prety fun.

I found out that you can go back to standing from crouch just by hitting the left shoulder button, skipping the prone position if you wish.
I'll be honest. I think I've had more fun with BF2 on the 360 than I've ever had with Halo2. Yes, let the flames begin (or hopefully not). Really. I know this is just personal opinion. From reading the posts here, it appears that BF2 is Love/Hate. We'll, I'm gonna buy it tomorrow and it's the second game I've liked well enough to buy (the first was GRAW). Ive been playing the crap out of the demo and I haven't even begun to get tired of it. I like the graphics, the physics and the amount of damage that can be done to the environment. There is one thing that BUGS the living crap out of me though. A Tank can get hung up on a 50 gallon barrel. That just sucks and makes me want to rip my hair out. Other than that. It's a lot of fun. I really like how versatile the vehicles are, as you can get 2-4 people in them depending on which one you pick. I also like how it isn't bloody (although it'd be nice to turn it on if I wanted). My 9 year old son likes to watch me play and I don't mind so much since it isn't gory. Thanks EA
Give it a chance... It really is fun.

Please don't thank this company... they are the devil...
glad to see you enjoy it... I d/l the demo and had fun for about 2 games... then remembered the nights on xbox when all I could find was games on Bridge Too Far (damn that voting) and it gets boring quick.... as of now I don't believe I'll buy this game... I feel as if I'd be paying for a shiney version of what's already on my shelf... and my friends lately are gunho over a game they get it and play for a week then complain their aren't any good games... (prolly cause they suck at them)... who knows... once it's out and I see better reviews and player's takes on the game I may pick it up... maybe SAM's will have it by then... I'll get it $5 cheaper...
I traded FCI:P and got this.
It's fun Except the bloody Bridge Too Far Map keeps coming up.
And I've just had enough as the EA servers are shite. Kicked off 3 times in 10 mins.
The single player levels I've seen (done the first defend one, failed on the protect the techie one)
You can't see the enemy through the snow. Hot Swapping is cool though.
Mainly bought to play online but may just go back to the demo if thats the only level people want to play.

I agree 110%
STOP voting for Bridge Too Far,, I have played all online maps and Bridge too Far is the worst, and really makes online play annoying when people keep voting for it. If you like it that much, you should have saved your money and just dl the demo

Quickly Double tap (heh - one in the chest one in the head) the left trigger to go prone whilst skipping crouch and I think you can quickly double tap the left bumper to stand (from prone again skipping crouch)
I'm not thrilled with the 360 version... looks to me like a better graphics version of the xbox version... I didn't buy this just rented and am kinda glad... I think the hit system is off a bit... from what i remember the demo and the xbox version was pretty dead on... i'll unload a clip with the smg into someone's head and they get 2 shots i'm dead... maybe i just need to play more... it was the first night i played since the demo...
