yeah, I think so, Im at work and clicked the link in the quote and its a banner at the top of the free/demos page, but requires origin to install, as to be expected. Ill grab it later tonight. Loved BF 1942, used to play it a lot in college.

No need to go on the offensive, and attack simply because of one statement.

And nobody cares. Just throwing that out there.

Same goes for anyone else who holds (irrational) hate towards Origin. Nobody cares, and you don't need to chime in your useless opinion on the matter within every single thread that has so much as a hint of Origin in it.

Once again didn't moan, tho I find it funny you complained and moaned about my "moan". All I said was I would not be installing origin again for this, didn't say why, didn't say I didn't like origin thumb.gif

Also you cared enough to reply ^^ That one always get's me.

Also you cared enough to reply ^^ That one always get's me.

Why are you still carrying on with this conversation? His last reply ended this, but yet you are just adding more gasoline to the fire. It seems that all you want is attention at this point.

Now this part just pisses me off and shows how immature you are.


On-topic: Downloading now, so much memories going to be pouring in, haven't played it forever biggrin.gif
