What annoyed me was when I asked him directly on Twitter and he said there wasn't catch-up at all. I said there was and he wanted proof, so posted it, and I never got a reply.

Goldfarb commented on the length of the singleplayer campaign, saying that it’s around 7 hours, depending on what difficulty you play on, and mentioned that they’re rather “have six hours of awesome than 12 hours of ‘meh’”.

Yes they were. Whitmarsh released a statement on it, and during the BBC Forum (which I have on now), Brundle said he was late to the presentation because he was speaking to a McLaren engineer about the tyres who said whilst there was no issues, they were extreme conce

The Benetton was certainly not the better car when it raced in a legal form.

F1 Another 2 passes by Vettel. But that boy can't overtake, oh no!
Webber might actually be able to win a race if he could actually preform a decent start. If the cars didn't have anti-stall then Webber wouldn't even make it to turn 1 half the weekends. Maybe the testing ban hurts this more than it would have before, but his starts seem spectacularly bad every weekend, and show no

F1 I don't see how it could be equal blame. Kobayahsi was always going to be going there, and Lewis drove into a space without even thinking. Maybe Kob was clutching at straws, but that only brings it to 90-10 Lewis fault.

Off-Topic You can't race it, because the AI are completely moronic. Even the Flatout Series, which is as arcade as it gets, had better functional AI. The annoying thing is that Codemasters did the hard stuff correctly. The AI Raced you, stuck on outside lines, went at proper speed into turn 1 etc, something which most racing games don't do. And yet the easy stuff, such as making the cars actually

F1 Regarding the sounds, BC2s strength with the sounds are not with your own gun (those are easy to do), its how other guns sound. Call of Dutys was just some basic noises, and BC2s SP was the same, but even more generic. Bad Company 2s MP sounds are completely dynamic and it sounds fantastic as a result. I find the difference between SP And MP odd since it was a DICE production. It isn't like

Other Games That review was written on BC2 single player, which has to be one of the worst SPs I've ever played. I love the multiplayer now, and will continue to do so, but the SP is complete garbage. The sounds included, because it just uses generic sounds for the enemy. Whilst it may vary from gun to gun, it doesn't give you the satisfying noises that the multiplayer gives, which varies upon loca
