Battlefield 2: Modern Combat Critic Reviews
A solid translation of the Battlefield series to consoles. It doesn’t quite recreate the experience perfectly but it does it well enough to make it a compelling purchase....read the complete Battlefield 2: Modern Combat review at PGNx Media
Whereas Battlefield’s previous entries have benefited from deep realistic multiplayer experiences that bordered on wartime simulations, Modern Combat’s strength instead lies in its solo arcade-style gameplay that, despite some questionable AI and...read the complete Battlefield 2: Modern Combat review at eToychest
attempted to implement a sense of genuine evolution, albeit by combining established gameplay elements from a separate genre. Battlefield 2: Modern Combat builds on an already envied multiplayer reputation by calling forth a brave approach to the oft unde...read the complete Battlefield 2: Modern Combat review at Gamer's Hell

Oh my! A rocket approaches. Let me just leap into this other fellow's body and run like hell....read the complete Battlefield 2: Modern Combat review at IGN
A great game. However, if you were planning to buy this game for its campaign, you might as well forget it. The campaign mode becomes tedious and shallow quickly....read the complete Battlefield 2: Modern Combat review at Amped IGO
The game rewards players that communicate and work together, but even if you go lone wolf and cause trouble with land mines, you're going to have a good time. Just don't be surprised when you dishonorably discharge all those old offline war games in your...read the complete Battlefield 2: Modern Combat review at Electronic Gaming Monthly
Battlefield 2: Modern Combat is split into two modes, a single-player offline campaign and an online multiplayer. Of the two, multiplayer is really where the fun is with the series. Multiplayer games allow for up to 24 players per game, though it only...read the complete Battlefield 2: Modern Combat review at Game Vortex
It’s odd, but Modern Combat is a much better single-player game than it is multiplayer....read the complete Battlefield 2: Modern Combat review at Jolt Online Gaming UK
A bit of a paradox. While the graphics are poor, the sound is much more developed. The controls are great for while on foot, but vehicles take some adjustment....read the complete Battlefield 2: Modern Combat review at GamingTrend
A stripped down consolized version of the classic PC shooter that will probably disappoint PC veterans....read the complete Battlefield 2: Modern Combat review at Gaming Target
Online play has been Battlefield's strongest feature up until now. In this version the single player mode rivals the online mode....read the complete Battlefield 2: Modern Combat review at Cheat Code Central
the most radical departure, featuring the ability to swap between any soldier within sight. Zooming between combat units such as rooftop snipers, tank gunners and infantry can be disorientating but successfully using their varied abilities is rewarding, e...read the complete Battlefield 2: Modern Combat review at Sydney Morning Herald
I expected more from the single player than I got. Weapons upgrades and unlockables are cool, but a storyline that really doesn't go anywhere or suck you in, combined with lackluster computer AI bring the experience down. Almost like it's an afterthought....read the complete Battlefield 2: Modern Combat review at Next Level Gaming

When it comes down to it, Battlefield 2: Modern Combat lays a solid foundation for the series on the consoles, but doesn’t quite live up to the high expectations we had for it....read the complete Battlefield 2: Modern Combat review at XGP Gaming
The game has all the things that have made "Battlefield" a PC favorite. In particular, the vehicles work well, maybe even better with the controller. Flying a helicopter with two sticks feels natural and the ground vehicles, like tanks and humvees, are a...read the complete Battlefield 2: Modern Combat review at 1UP
The Battlefield series finally makes its way onto consoles....read the complete Battlefield 2: Modern Combat review at GameSpot
It seems a little strange that Battlefield 2: Modern Combat should have the "2" in the title, given that this is the first Battlefield game to make an appearance on consoles. The game also, unfortunately, bears little resemblance to its superb namesake...read the complete Battlefield 2: Modern Combat review at GameSpot
Ultimately Battlefield 2: Modern combat gives PC gamers another reason to feel smug. Despite their best efforts the current generation of consoles can't compete with the capabilities of today's high-end PCs....read the complete Battlefield 2: Modern Combat review at Ferrago
really could have been more. The single player campaign is likely to be popular and should last a fairly extensive amount of time. 7.0Overall: Battlefield 2: Modern Combat has lost a little of its appeal in th...read the complete Battlefield 2: Modern Combat review at PALGN
there's no sense of impact, which only degrades the overall experience for the player. In many ways this just reinforces the premise of the game as an arcade shooter - the grenade launcher doesn't even have much of a recoil. In addition, the range of vehi...read the complete Battlefield 2: Modern Combat review at Total Video Games
The hotswap mechanic is also a great way to ensure that you're playing with the right man for the job you're tasked with....read the complete Battlefield 2: Modern Combat review at GameSpy
If you’re going to buy a copy of the game and can meet its intimidating PC sys. requirements (128 mb video, need an Nvidia FX 5700 or better, or the Radeon equivalent), get that. Otherwise, the X-Box version is probably your next best bet....read the complete Battlefield 2: Modern Combat review at Netjak
