GamingNexus has an interview up (http://www.gamingnexus.com/Default.aspx?Section=Article&I=1001) with Dan Blackstone, the senior producer of the 360 port of Battlefield 2: Modern Combat
GamingNexus: Is there any new content (single or multiplayer) in this version of the game? For those of us who have to go through a home finance office (wife/girlfriend/significant other) can you help us justify spending $60 to them? How do we defeat the “You already have that game” argument?
Dan Blackstone: There are a lot of things that we streamlined, or improved, or rebuilt to make them even better. We don’t want to mislead anyone about what the game is. For example, the single player missions remain the same, but we re-wrote the AI for every mission, changed enemy spawn points, and made other tweaks that may not be immediately apparent, but will make the entire experience even better than it was. On the multiplayer side, the Conquest mode remains the same, but we have the new downloadable content that was released on Xbox Live included in the game. So this is basically the best-looking, best playing, most complete version of Modern Combat.
