A much more dramatic version of the No Russian level from Modern Warfare 2. Edited by Michael Barnes from footage in that level and the ones before and after. Amazing work. (via the shut-in)

Modern Warfare 2 and Bad Company 2 were …
Modern Warfare 2 and Bad Company 2 were a complete fail last night. I got mowed down in MW2 by everyone else, and in BC2 I joined the game as a medic only to discover I had one squad mate who quickly disappeared and wasn’t interested in playing as a team.
Oh, and I unlocked the defibrillator and the enhanced medkit. Reviving downed team mates was useful though it’s a hard job.
Still, at least I got a positive KDR in one game when I manned the gun on a tank!

So basically, the person at the top of the scoreboard is the person who’s played their class the most effectively. They’re the guys who healed the most teammates, or blew up the most enemy tanks, or kept the front line supplied with ammo. Basically, they’re not the people who are best with their guns, but the people best at helping their friends. And that’s an important dynamic.

- Squad Deathmatch in Bad Company 2. 4 teams of 4 battle it out. The first to 50 kills wins. Haven’t tried it yet. Isn’t it odd that team deathmatch is listed at the top of the game modes in MW2 yet it’s objective games in BfBC2 that are prominent.

Woah, couple of good games of Bad Company 2 there. And someone actually had their mic on. Thanks Lars for all the revives. Definitely great to hear your squad mate.
I played as medic too as the first game was defense and after that I wanted to unlock the defibrillator (spell that without a spell checker!) but our squad had one sniper who at one stage was the only surviving member of our team so Lars and I spawned on him running until I realised he was running the wrong way! Cursing we started running towards the bombs and a good 20 seconds later entered the fray. First I got shot, then I heard Lars confirm his death too. Oops.
Our sniper was still sniping from miles away though. By the island on Isla whatever-it-it’s-called when we had moved up to the last target. Maybe he was doing some good but I doubt it and forgot to check his score. *grrr*
Unfortunately we lost but it was a blast. It’s strange the camaraderie created from a shared experience online with total strangers.

I’m not sure yet if I’ll buy the Modern Warfare 2 maps due on the 30th, but actually I don’t think 1200 MS points (or about €14) is excessive for 5 more maps, even if 2 are rehashed from a previous game. I never played them in their previous incarnation anyway.
I’ll wait until the reviews are in however before parting with my hard earned credits but really, put things in perspective. I’ll spend about 7 Euro on a magazine that I’ll read over the course of a week or two and then dump in the corner with the rest of them. A paperback can cost from €8 to €12 and be read in bursts over about the same time. Or even €4.90 for an occasional pint.
If my past 4 months experience of game playing are anything to go by, I’ll get a lot more use out of a map pack than any magazine or most other entertainment purchases I’ll make.
I have to admit I’m looking forward to the free DLC for Bad Company 2, even if it’s just new modes for existing maps…

It was great playing Modern Warfare 2 TDM with the guys from work this evening but boy do I suck when I’m tired. I think 1 game out of 3 or 4 ended with a positive KDR for me.
Anyway, here’s a photo of the mad Springer Spaniel my son Adam was playing with at Fountainstown today.
zzzzzz…

Parachute safely to the ground in Bad Company 2 by double tapping X “until you feel a jolt” apparently.
Wish I’d known that last night. I fell to my death from the helicopter when I thought the parachute would automatically open! -10 points for a suicide and an “EPIC FAIL”.
Oh, and as an engineer or medic or assault class, if you’re wondering where your fixing tool, health box or ammo box is you have to unlock them. They don’t take long to unlock however. 🙂

Wooo, couple of nice games of Modern Warfare 2 with Eddie. I’ve switched to tactical controller layout as I got used to hitting RS to crouch in Bad Company 2. Works well enough though I haven’t tried the dropshot yet.
Playing my silent class, silenced UMP, Ninja Pro and Coldblooded. Lots of air support and the one single time I got killed from it was when I was close to my team mates. Sorry, when I was running away from my team mates when I saw a predator missile. Not fast enough.
