Last night, I downloaded the demo for Battlefield 1943, which I’m sure is a good game - understand that this review is not speaking to the quality of the game itself, rather to the fact that I attempted to connect to EA online hundereds of times in the course of something like 6 hours. It did not work. I was never able to play the game. While looking at the goddamned Xbox Guide and seeing that I was, in fact "Connected to Xbox Live", I could not connect to whatever deformed "internet" that EA is using to allow people to play Battlefield 1943 (i use play in the loosest sense of the word).
