Sometimes the gratitude of a nation just isn't enough Set in the near future, the Battlefield: Bad Company single-player campaign drops gamers behind enemy lines as part of a squad of four soldiers - risking it all to go AWOL on a personal quest. Featuring a dramatic storyline flavoured with attitude, Battlefield: Bad Company leads gamers far from the traditional frontlines on a wild ride with a group of renegade soldiers who decide that sometimes the gratitude of a nation just isn’t enough. The Battlefield: Bad Company cinematic single-player experience captures the freedom and intensity of the Battlefield series’ multiplayer sandbox gameplay in a dynamic world where nearly everything is destructible. Players have total freedom to be daring and innovative, adapting to and tackling challenges in unexpected Battlefield-style ways. Create sniping positions by blowing out a piece of a wall or drive your tank straight through a small house. The ever-changing battlefield forces players, their teammates and enemies to react accordingly.
The game also features the all new, objective based multiplayer game mode "Gold Rush", supporting 24 players online. Play as attackers and defenders and make full use of the tactical destruction as well as the unique vehicle experience of Battlefield: Bad Company.
Battlefield: Bad Company is the first game built from the ground up for next-generation consoles using DICE’s bleeding-edge Frostbite game engine, delivering unrivalled graphics, effects and gameplay. | Key Features

| B Company
Welcome to the 222nd Army battalion, B-company. This is where the Army rakes together all the insubordinates, hellraisers and troublemakers that won’t fit in any other unit. When the Rangers and Deltas are too expensive to waste, these guys are the first ones in.
They’re called “Bad Company”; a mismatched bunch of rejects selected to serve their country as cannon fodder. This isn’t the kind of outfit a lot of soldiers would join voluntarily. Getting transferred to “the B” is a punishment and a way for the generals to put all their rotten eggs in one basket.
No one starts out in Bad Company. But for some, this is where they end up. |

 Most fun I have had in a while August 11, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I normally like to finish a game before reviewing it, but I can say that Battlefield: Bad Company is awesome and there is no point in me finishing it. This is absolute fun. RPGs going over your head. Your squad talking up a storm. You trying to run away from tanks. Getting blown-up and then getting shaken up because of the blast. In a short couple of words. Forget COD4, I think this is the most realistic game I have played. I haven't been in combat before, this has to be close. I have played most of the the popular FPS console games; Rainbow Six, COD, Ghost Recon, Halo and this will certainly satisfy me for a while.
I have seen the bad reviews on Amazon and I don't get it. Who cares that it isn't COD4. Call of Duty was so scripted anyway. It almost wants a first person shooter but an adventure game.
Bad Company is not hard, but it is fun to see if approaching a hotspot makes it easier on you. For example, I normally don't like using the vehicles (Tanks, etc) but if you do, they make it a lot easier.
Pros:
* Awesome sound
* Awesome gameplay and realistic environment
* Fun
* Funny story and characters
Cons:
* Horrible, horrible worthless friendly AI. The enemy AI seems pretty good to me. I saw an enemy soldier walk right up to the friendly and the friendly soldier didn't do anything.
* Maybe too realistic and chaotic. You can't tell what is going on.
* Stupid reviewers on Amazon, who want COD5.

I loved this game great graphics awesome sound but the only thing I didn't like was it was to short but other than that I recommend it.
Great Game August 5, 2008

Great overall game. The storyline is solid, the gameplay is easy, while the AI challenge is definitely there without being way over the top. Online play is awesome. The one downside: no multiplayer unless your online. There seems to be only one online multiplayer mode too. Hopefully that gets updated. Id says its definitely worth the buy.
Fun game, still waiting. August 2, 2008
