EA continue their march into browser-based online gaming with their latest effort, Battlefield Play4Free.
It’s Windows only and like Battlefield Heroes uses a browser add-on to launch the game. Battlefield Play4Free is a pretty traditional FPS. It’s got a modern setting and all the basics that make the Battlefield series what it is. We played the closed Beta recently, and as I said in my review, found it to be pretty fun and certainly impressive for a free game!
There are paid, premium aspects to Battlefield Play4Free, but you can have a perfectly good time without paying a thing. While it looks a bit last-generation graphically, it’s good enough and is great fun to play, especially if you persevere and learn to use the vehicles well. If you thought Battlefield Heroes’ cartoon style wasn’t serious enough, Play4free could be the free game you’re looking for.
