    Mind blowing! as if blowing everything in the game wasn't enough

    When I first downloaded the demo on live I wasn't quite sure this game would made my cut, but after I rented it I knew I had to buy.

    As most of you know the battlefield series stands out for its multilayer faction of the game. BF Bad Company changes that totally, as you find yourself on a true single-player campaign as opposed to previous installments. You are part of the B company. The B company is where all the army renegades if you will, are sent to deal with hence the name Bad Company.

    You will find that the characters have depth as you'll find yourself laughing a few minutes by the different situations they have to overcome. Regarding game play if you've played a lot of CoD 4 as I have you'll find the controls a bit awkward but after a few minutes of play you will find just right. As of military games we are living on a post CoD 4 era and we tend to judge everything by it. Well I highly recommend you get this game or at least rent it, to find out that it's more than a rental.

    Vehicles!!, yes! you can drive different types, as they add to the whole experience, as you can bring the destruction mayhem up a notch. Just imagine yourself driving a tank through the enemy lines quite interesting huh?

    Now to multi-player, the destruction mania extends to it, thats right you will find yourself tearing through walls to find your prey (if you will), the games has kinda a perk system a la CoD but with another name Classes. The multi-player mode is called Gold Rush,  the whole purpose of the attacking team is to destroy two gold crates and the defending team purpose is self explanatory. When playing rank matches you will gain Xp and unlock points that you will use to well unlock guns, if you get the standard edition as I did you will have to wait until rank 25 to unlock the guns that come as a "bonus" in the gold edition.

    To conclude BF Bad Company made rethink my anti-EA policy now i think they can actually make good games. The single-player campaign and the multi-player mode you'll find yourself pleased.

      Unleash havoc on the battlefield like never before. 0

      In late 2006, Electronic Arts released Battlefield 2142 on the PC to relative success. Two years later, the Battlefield series came to consoles with the release of Battlefield: Bad Company. In Bad Company, you'll be utilizing Dice's new Frostbite engine to destroy your way through a somewhat short single-player and an addicting multiplayer experience. Though Bad Company is quite different from its Battlefield cousins in both story and presentation, minus a few small annoyances, it's a great shoo...

      Wanna blow stuff up? Get Bad Company. 0

      If I wanted to make this review short and sweet, I'd probably just say "If you like blowing stuff up and killing a bunch of people while doing it, then Battlefield Bad Company is the game for you." But since I like to add a bit of professionalism to my reviews, I'll delve a bit more into the game and give you a more enlightened point of view on this first-person shooter. Battlefield Bad Company comes from developer EA DICE and publisher Electronic Arts and chronicles the adventures of B-Company...
