    Xfire is a useful gaming tool that allows users to keep in touch without having to use the in game texting. Which might cause disruption of your game play and it is updated almost daily to accommodate the new games coming in.

    okay i just got back from walmart - i bought 2142 - i stood there staring at all 3 games for like 30 minutes lol... now the hard part is opening it :x once i open it i can't return and get something else.

    did i make the right choice? my reasoning is that MOH:A is new and i heard there isn't really a good fanbase right now.. now COD2 i was right about to get but i changed my mind because i remember someone telling me that it is pretty difficult on multiplayer because there are way too many experienced players and you'll basically just got annihalated ... sooooooo, do i keep 2142 and open it?!? lol.. or do i get moh:a and wait for multiplayer to get bigger or do i get cod2...

    NOTE: YES I AM AN UNDECISIVE PERSON!!! :eek: :eek:

    Ok, first of all, COD 2 multiplayer is DIFFERENT than team based work. Even though there are teams, not many people mass into squads and attack. You're on your own, and it gives you headaches and frustration due to lack of team work.

    Keep 2142, I'd totally recommend it. Gamespot said that the only interesting part was the last 2 levels of the game. where they claimed was "INTENSE". They also said that their multiplayer is an awesome experience.

    So, if you were to get 2 games, get MOH:AA and Battlefield 2142.

    Sorry bwhxeon, I do not know how to boot from the hard drive to automatically play BF 2142 when you double click on the shortcut for it. I just put in my disc and play.

    Well I'm Scavar....should be Scavar in both games, but BF2142 always confuses me with the solider names and stuff so I'll get back to you on that, or you can check online.

    I haven't played either in a bit, but I'd like to. Either game game would be fine. And I'm al ittle backwards then most people, time of day doesn't matter but I can't usually play on Fri/Sat. My XFire is uhh...Scavar but I'm never on it....So there you have it.....
