Great game

by brawler9686 Nov 3, 2009, 8:50 AM PST

At first I didn't even know how to play so in my mind I was kinda regreting buying this game. Then after I knew how to this game blew me away. A must buy and for only 15 dollars this is a steal. For all the reviews that say the graphics are bad there acually not bad there good. They made the graphics like that for a reason. I seriously like the online better then battlefield badcompany's online.

great combat, though i have a problem with the tank fire power. it is almost impossible to kill infantry with the tank. otherwise it is a great combat game.

Well worth your time and hard earned cash

by frdrica97 Oct 22, 2009, 5:16 PM PDT

I got this game as soon as it came out and haven't stoped playing since(with the exception of Uncharted 2). The part that I am really in love with is that you can go from land, sea, and air and the battle never stops no matter where you are!!! The 2 problems that I have with the game are very small but they do get my attention. First of all the graphics aren't that very good. Now I understand that Battlefield 1943 was origanly for the PC but Sony could have boosted up the graphics at least a little. Also, there are only 3 character classes. There should have been more like there were for Battlefield: Bad Company. This was a great sucess for Sony and for just $15.00 this game is a steal. It would be great if Sony could get more Battlefield games and put them on the Playstation Store.
A great buy

PROBLEM AND BUG

by RiKKe90 Oct 21, 2009, 6:36 AM PDT

Okay, so i have this problem. I bought the game from ps3 network, trial version and the full game patch that unlocks the whole game. The game itself launches fine but every time after like 10 or 20 minutes i get kicked out from the server saying that "there has been problem with the connection. And after i try to get into the game right after it doesnt work. But if i close the game and start it immeadiatly, i can connect to a server. Anybody having same problems? What might cause this problem?

GUD DEAL FOR 15 BUCKS

by herve21597 Oct 3, 2009, 6:50 PM PDT

Simple multiplayer FPS with 3 classes.The scout is a long range master,the infantryman leads the frontline,and the rifleman is kind of like a balance between the 2.The game is played by killing members on the other team and capturing areas to expand ur control of the battlefield.U can play as Japanese or Americans in the pacific war during WW2 in the 40s.The game has 3 maps,iwo jima is the most fun for me and has better capture point variety,while guadalcanal is gud for snipers,and in wake island u can swim through the water in the middle of the map and get to the enemy undetected.The game also has different vehicles with different roles.The tank deals heavy damage and leads the charge but it can be easily destroyed by an RPG,then the cars which are ideal for carrying many forces and has a mounted gun,the boat is gud for traveling fast over water,and jets provide support from above.Every map also has big airfields which are probably the most important part of a map.The airfield gives access to many vehicles and also has a airstrike bunker where u can direct a powerful bomb strike.1943 has fun gameplay which feels both simple and complex in a weird kind of way.It might not be the best game of summer,but its a gud deal.
