Battlefield:Vietnam
I mentioned this to Greasel_burger, but I thought I'd mention it to all. I don't know if anyone here was a fan of the battlefield games (let's just say I am a fanatical one), but they are making a DLC version of Battlefield:Vietnam for the Battlefield: Bad Company 2 engine. I already own BC2, but I know a few people that would buy the game just to buy the DLC. Anywhoo, check it out, it looks fantastic and I only hope it can live up to the original. If this was mentioned before I apologize, I browsed the FPS forum trying to make sure I didn't double-post.

I love BC2 and I am looking forward to this DLC. I am also curious about the new Call of Duty Black Ops.

I loved playing Vietnam! was my favorite game out the bunch of War-games-FPS's i got in a box set several years ago.

But sadly i have lost my game disc for this and for Battlefield 1942 (accidentally uninstalled and i got all the discs but 1 of the original 2)... so my battlefield series is ruined

Might have to pick up BF2 just for this expansion

Damn you EA, why are you so good at parting me with my money?

BF:V was the game that sucked me back into gaming. I played BC2 a bit, but this may bring me back full throttle.

I missed the original Bad Company, though I heard it was great.

I'm looking forward to a new FPS to fill the void and Bad Company 2 Vietnam might be it. Especially if we can jump in our hueys, crank up some rocking 60's tunes like the original BF:V. That might be just to trick to get me in a really good FPS frame of mind...

Definitely looking forward to this one. It appears that it will be pretty good value for $15. The only downside is a limited number of maps (IIRC only 4) and that servers will have to run either BC2 or Vietnam.

I think the BC2 game engine is more suited to a Vietnam style gameplay than the default original modern one IMO. No cover behind buildings isn't fun but this looks like a lot of fun hiding in and blowing away the jungle
