Fortunately, Sergeant (well, Private) Devlin is here to save the day, or at least pick off a couple of enemies from a distance and behind a sturdy wall. Now the European Union (God help us!) and the newly created Pan Asian Coalition have to duke it out for control of the last resources on the planet. The latest instalment in the acclaimed online multiplayer series shifts the action to the future, where a second ice age has wreaked havoc on the earth. Then again, with my Battlefield 2142 stats, it’s probably better I never wield anything more dangerous than a two-button mouse. If I wanted ritual humiliation, maybe I should have joined the real army. The strange thing is that, although my persistent failure is as disheartening as being repeatedly beaten with the butt of a rifle while someone shouts “ You’re useless Devlin,” I keep coming back for more. I have a sad confession to make about all Battlefield games: I’m terrible at them.
