The latest addition to the Battlefield franchise may be the strongest showing yet. The front end has been vastly improved and streamlined with faster load times, an easy-to-navigate-interface, and windows and options that make sense.

Gameplay has always been strong in Battlefield games and BF 2142 takes it even further. Vehicles have been improved, including a hovering tank with strafing capabilities; a troop transport with the ability to fire yourself in a pod to your opponent's Titan mother ship; a heavily armored walker; easier-to-fly aircraft; and a jeep that lets you hit the nitrous oxide for quick speed bursts. The weapons offer the same realistic feel of older games in the franchise, but with futuristic changes that add to overall gameplay. What's more, you can mix and match weapon sets such as machine guns or sniper rifles with items like C4 or First Aid. You can create virtually any type of soldier using a retooled drag-and-drop interface. Possibly the biggest addition is the new Titan gametype in the already popular Conquest mode. Gameplay is similar to Conquest, but the added requirements of capturing missile silos and blowing up your enemy's Titan changes the strategy completely.

We found Battlefield 2142 to be an excellent addition to the franchise. We particularly like customizing our ideal soldier and the addition of new vehicle types with cool options. Also, front-end fixes make it much easier to find and connect to online servers. Fans of the Battlefield series and anyone who appreciates a solid FPS game will love the demo, assuming they have the bandwidth for the massive download and the firepower for the high system requirements.
