Battlefield 2 vs Battlefield Hardline
Battlefield 2
Battlefield 2 is one of the Battlefield classics and rightly so. The game lets you play as a soldier in one of the three major military superpowers: the United States, the Chinese or the newly-formed Middle East Coalition. Players will have access to a wide range of weaponry to do battle with as well as a variety of vehicles. Similar to the original game, the game has a large-scale multiplayer mode - the hallmark of any game from the main Battlefield series - that can accomodate up to 64 players on a single map.With more weapons and vehicles for you to play with, Battlefield 2 is a pretty nice sequel to the Battlefield franchise. However, considering that it has not yet been reworked, unlike the first Battlefield, and that currently, there is no way you can purchase the game unless you get the hard copy off eBay or a similar site, you might be better off buying any of the other Battlefield games.
Battlefield Hardline
Battlefield Hardline is rather nice spin-off from the usual massive battlefields, which happened to be the hallmark of the Battlefield game franchise. In this spin-off though, instead of playing as soldiers in a war, you'll be assuming the character of detective Nick Mendoza in the game's episodic crime drama. Being the lead detective, you'll need to manage your team of cops, gather intel, obtain warrants and take down various criminals and the organizations they are associated with.Many of the features in this game is similar to the ones you'll alrready have encountered in any of the main Battlefield games, including a large arsenal of weapons, a range of vehicles, a variety of gadgets as well as destructible environments. The game also offer four different multiplayer modes where you can play as the cops or the criminal. In a way, the game have a bit of a PayDay feel to it.
Battlefield Hardline is a quite unique spin-off of the series and it has been received pretty well by its fans. The gameplay is as fun as ever. If you like cop games, this is the game you'll want to play.
