Battlefield 2 vs Company of Heroes
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.
Company of Heroes
Company of Heroes is the rare few World War-themed games that managed to let you experience the intensity of war and the heroic sacrifices that had to be made through the eyes of a soldier. You can play the role of a brave Allied lieutenant leading your own squad of soldiers in the game's single-player campaign or you can join the multiplayer battle between Axis and Allies (up to 8 players) by choosing a team to play as. The game also features destructible environments (you can reshape the battlefield as needed), some historical accounts about the war you'll be fighting in, and a unique strategic gameplay.Company of Heroes is one of those few rare games that World War 2 buffs would really enjoy, but even if you're not one of them, you can still enjoy the brilliant gameplay that this game has to offer.
