Battlefield: Bad Company review....Bomb`s Away! 0
Battlefield: Bad Company (BF)Is a pretty amazing game, when i first played the demo, i was disappointed because of weird aiming control and boring single-player. That changed when i bought the full game, the aiming is precise once you get used to it and the single-player is surprisingly good.Let`s start with the Single-player.Its very good actually, the story in itself is not deep but its funny with the biggest stereotypes ever. Haggard likes to blow stuff up, Sweetwater is the typical nervous g...

Great All-around Package 0
That the multiplayer in Battlefield: Bad Company is better than its single player really says a lot, seeing as the latter is truly a high quality affair. While there is no amazing storyline to be found, the dialogue is humorous and entertaining throughout and the action is always satisfying, particularly when it comes to blowing holes in the game's destructible buildings.What makes the multiplayer so compelling for me is that it combines all the best of the single player action, including the hu...

One of the Best Games of the Year 0
As primarily a console gamer, Battlefield: Bad Company represents everything I wish the Battlefield series could've been. Almost everything good (except maybe the ability to go prone) is carried over from Battlefield 2, and everything new works incredibly well. The controls may seem strange at first, but once you get used to them, it's not hard to see them becoming the new standard for console shooter. The graphics are top-notch, in my opinion some of the best the 360 has to offer. The new Gold ...

A Good Game Overall Though Not Fantastic 0
Up to this point, the Battlefield series has been typically a PC shooter affair and the consoles have only had one game in the series, Battlefield 2: Modern Combat. While Battlefield 2: Modern Combat was the first Battlefield game made for consoles, EA and DICE's latest in the franchise is the first game to be made from the ground up for this generation of consoles and it is also the first game to not be on the PC. Battlefield Bad Company did surprise me for sure. I generally thought that Battle...

Solid Singleplayer. 0
Battlefield: Bad Company (2008) When transferred over to the console platform, Battlefield has never quite satisfied on the multiplayer front as much as its PC counterpart, an although there is vast improvement here between Modern Combat and Bad Company, the mode stills lags behind Call of Duty 4. The greatest aspect of the game however lies in the single player campaign which mixes a standard war story set in the near future with some great characters. Furthermore, the open ended nature of the...

Okay, I guess 6
This game just didn't capture me like COD4 or Portal. I have pretty high standards for games, but the current state of the industry has shown us great games are possible regardless of budget or big name access. Which, in my mind, leaves no excuse for games that aren't absolutely great. That being said, Bad Company seemed too disposable. Yes, the destructable environment element is great, until you realize you can just hide behind a log that can't be blown away unlike the brick building you were ...

What's better: A Russian Tank or a Truckasuarus Rex? 0
Ok here's the down beat. You play as Preston Marlow.Blah Blah Blah lets talk about the good stuff.Single Player:The story is the best story I've heard in along time.DICE added comedy to the mix of Battlefield;along with an actually story and tons of new goodies.The best part,you know can blow a hole in a house.Its 90% destructible Environments.The vehicles are fun to drive and the guns are fun to shoot.Multiplayer: It still feels like Battlefield games only with a new game type(Conquest mode com...

Battlefield Bad Company 0
I'm sure you've seen this trailer, seen game play footage, or heard about it one way or another. If you haven't then which rock have you been under? Battlefield Bad Company is the very first game to introduce a single player campaign. This may be one of the most compelling feature this game holds, as the Battlefield games were always strictly a multi-player based game with large forces; so it makes sense that hearing about a single player story in a Battlefield game has you already wondering " I...

The first attempt at a single-player Battlefield game is good. 0
BF: BC is a military first person shooter in the battlefield franchise. This is the first battlefield game to have a meaningful story campaign. In past battlefield games the real meat of the game was the multi-player component. The story of BF: BC follows Bad Company, a group of misfit convicts that don’t get sentenced jail time and instead get placed in the army. The crew completes their missions as they are told to by their superiors. After fighting their way up a hill they discover that the...

Good but gets old 0
battlefield bad company is a great game with things that other shooters dont have like destructable enviroments. Its gameplay is really what makes it shine though with great weapons, controls, and veicles you'll feel like youre really in the battle. The sound is great with weapons sounding satisfying and a tank sounds like what a tank should sound like. The graphics could use a small touch up but it really isnt anything to be worried about. I love the characters in the single player which ar...

Bad Company is nearly perfect game. 0
Battlefield: Bad Company looked like your average shooter when it was first announced but attention was quickly increased when D.I.C.E. said that the environments in Bad Company where 90% destructible, and after numerous delays and a month of fragging in a demo, Bad Company is finally here. Battlefield: Bad Company is a first time for the Battlefield series in many ways, A) It’s the first Battlefield game that isn’t a spin-off of the PC version of the franchise, B) Battlefield Bad Company is th...

Battlefield Bad Company is back in business! 0
Battlefield: Bad Company is redefining the sandbox appeal to first person shooters by adding a new gameplay mechanic called environmental destruction. This brand new feature in the battlefield series lets you create your own path to reach your objectives as the environment is up to 90% destructible. This game fully utilizes this feature in both the single player and multiplayer. The single player consists of a story-driven campaign across enemy territory with the help of allies that are part of ...

Bad company takes the Battlefield franchise, and adds to it. 0
Before Bad Company, Battlefield games were samey, faceless war shooters that... kinda failed to impress. I hoped that Bad Company would prove that DICE still had some tricks up their sleeves. And thankfully, they proved me right. I enjoyed every moment of Battlefield's single player, although the pretty much unlimited auto-injector reduced the difficulty somewhat. The great thing about Bad Company is that although the online action is the centrepiece of all the previous games in the franchise, t...

Awesome game! Great game for the summer drought! 0
I had a close eye on Battlefield: Bad Company for a while now. I was really excited when I heard a multiplayer demo became available on XBL. I downloaded it immediately and I was blown away. The draw distance in this game is amazing. But the real gem here is the explosions. Pretty much anything you see, can be destroyed in real time. It adds a whole new layer to the game. And for the first time ever, a Battlefield game has a single player that you should actually put some time into. This game ...

Skip the single player and head straight for online! 2
Battlefield: Bad Company is a great game. The multiplayer is deep and rewarding and even with one mode, it offers lots of lasting enjoyment. More on the multiplayer later. When you start the single player side of the game, the flaws are obvious. The most problematic portion of the game is the artificial intelligence both for your squad mates and your enemy. While moving from objective to objective, your three other squad mates will lag behind, waiting for you to engage the enemy and when yo...

A new look on a great game 0
Batllefield Bad Company for the Xbox360 and PS3, takes everything that was great about the battlefield games and builds on them. Unlike most of the Batllefield games this one is for the console instead of the PC. The Batllefield series has put out tons of games but Bad Comapny is only the second one to be brought out to the consoles. For years gamers have been enjoying the huge maps, crazy size battles and the many classes that grace the battlefield series but after a while the game began to get...

One of the Most Realistic Shooters Ever! 0
Many critics, gamers and people claim that Call of Duty 4 or Battlefield 2 are the most realistic Shooters ever but Battlefield Bad Compant has brought its own class of pwnage to the "Battlefield". You might not think its a big deal but BF:BC is the most realistic sounding shooter ever! Its also got a over 90% destroyable enviroment aswell as over 30 vechiles (tanks, jeeps, etc) and over 40 weapons!!! While BF:BC will never be Call of Duty 4 level for Xbox 360 its still one of the greatest shoot...

A Great Escape. 0
Upon giving this game a few weeks play time I have finally come to my conclusion. It is for me a great alternative from the run and gun style of Call of Duty 4. Make no mistake, there is no comparison to either game. In fact both games are completely different style's of First Person Shooters. Call of Duty 4 has been in my Xbox drive for more than 6 days of straight play time. It's been in control of the top of the charts of played online games for awhile now, and with good reason because i...

HIGH FIVE!!! (don' 0
I can't recommend this game enough. I really think it's great. I have not touched the single player so I can't say if that is good or not, but the multiplayer is brilliant. You gain rank similar to COD4 and that gives people a great reason to keep playing and switch classes to try new weapons. If Jeff's review didn't convice you I hope this does. GO PLAY THIS GAME!...

Quick Battlefield: Bad company Review 1
Story:So In Battlefield: Bad company you play a soldier called Preston, You've been sent to war because he's been bad. He's joined by other squad mates who have also been sent there for being bad. Thats why its called bad company (hehe) The game sends you on numerous objectives to help beat the russians.Gameplay:The gameplays very fun, you can kill russians with a various amount of weapons such as, Sniper rifles, RPGS, Machine guns, shotguns, pistols etc.Some guns can fire grenades which is very...

Mind blowing! as if blowing everything in the game wasn't enough 0
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...

Boom is a keyword 0
When someone says Battlefield what do you think of? Singleplayer? Multiplayer? If you said singleplayer than you must have been playing a different Battlefield for all these years, and Dice set out to create a worthwhile single player campaign with Bad Company. Single player does a great job of introducing you to all the various gadgets, and the characters are even funny sometimes. You have youre normal shouty sargeant, usual explosive crazed demolition guy (with a redneck twist) and for some re...

"Bad Company" Sets a New Standard 0
Battlefield: Bad Company sets a new standard, in my opinion. Not only does this game bring a highly enjoyable single player experience, but it also has an addicting multi-player game. Bad Company was announced back in 2006 and made by Electronic Arts. This highly anticipated game was well worth the wait, and you're about to find out why. Bad Company is also the first Battlefield game to be exclusive to consoles. Previous games have been brought to consoles from the PC. This game feels like it wa...

Battlefeild: Bad Company single player review 0
I will just get this out of the way really quickBattlefeild bad company is the most unique and suprisingly good games to come out this year so far. I began this experiance during the multiplayer beta earlier this year and i was left feeling suprised , but not excited for the game. Later when the demo came out it was much more polished and the singleplayer got me hooked and i decided to purchase the game.The game's singleplayer starts with you getting out of a helicopter reporting for duty after...

Awesome Game! 0
I personaly would of rather of had Battlefield 3 for PC because Battlefield 2 and 2142 were just phenominal but i certainly found the Battlefield Bad Company great!! Its got a great single player, which is exclusive to this game. The multiplayer is also very fun, in my opinion the 24 player cap and the gold rush is good, but call of duty's multiplayer or even battlefield 2s online is way funner. Im not going to go to indepth in this review i would just like to say, if your a fan of battlefield ...

Battlefield: Bad Company, More Like Battlefield: Great Company 0
Cheesey title I know, but I speak the truth my friends for Battlefield: Bad Company is an action packed standout in a genre packed to the rafters with average titles. Offering a seriously fun Single Player Campaign and solid traditional Battlefield Multiplayer it's hard to find a good reason why this game shouldn't be in your gaming collection.Firstly, lets go back in time a little. To 2006 to be precise, when DICE released Battlefield: Modern Combat. Their first real attempt at cracking the Fir...

Awesome Multiplayer, so-so single player. 2
First off I want to point out that i'm not really big on the Battlefield series and I only played Battlefield 2 (for PC and original Xbox) briefly. That being said I thought this game was great, specially the multiplayer aspect.First off i'll start with the single player part of the game. Basically EA/D.I.C.E. I guess wanted to have a single player that was worth playing in the battlefield series in a way they succeeded and in a way they didn't. There is a story even though I found it to be k...

Dice should have stuck with the multiplayer focused game design. 0
As negative as my title is my feelings towards the game and my review are actually pretty positive. As simple as i can put it the game is just a solid shooter. Its not great or generation defining but it won't leave you out in the cold either. This game is the first if I'm not mistaken to have a pretty fleshed out single player experience as well as Dice's famous realistic team based multiplayer. I don't think i need to get into the story much since if you're reading this you probably already kn...

A decent FPS game with some fun moments and plenty of repetition. 0
It was a decent experience with some fun missions in certain spots in the single player mode. The missions were a bit repetitive during the first half of the game while the second half mixed it up more with a larger variety of vehicles and weapons. The last mission was just insane and if it weren't for the multiplayer-type respawning feature, I would've tossed my controller at the TV screen. Yea, so I have mixed reactions about the game in general. The graphics are gorgeous. The character model...

Boo, Singleplayer 1
Battlefield Bad Company is a really strong multiplayer game, but that is all that it is. The singleplayer may seem appealing at first glance, but the abysmal pace of the game will leave you struggling to find the energy to finish the game. The multiplayer is really fun, but I am sure you can read about that in Mr. Gerstmann's solid review. The singleplayer, however, is less amazing. This is one of those games where you will be shot at from beginning to end, because the moment you start shoo...

A Great Game 0
DICE's first attempt at a true singleplayer game is succesful as they combined a fun not run of the mill FPS story with a great open sandbox environment and level design that allows the player to experiece a great number of different events and experiences. The multiplayer stays true to the Battlefield franchise as it is extremely fun and long lasting. This game is well worth the money as time one will spend in multiplayer is everlasting. The first FPS to rival COD4 and in some ways succed COD4....

One of the best multiplayer experience on next gen consoles 0
Battlefield has always been a series known for it’s fantastic multiplayer game play. Bad Company expands on the series noted multiplayer while also adding in a marketable better single player campaign. Battlefield: Bad Company also features great vehicles, a funny cast of characters, and larger than life destruction that make this game arguably the best in the series. Bad Company is the first of the Battlefield series to have a meaningful campaign. The single player campaign tells the story of...

Battlefield Bad Company Blows Up 0
Battlefield Bad Company could have used a bit more polish, but still plays as a Battlefield game should. On the surface Battlefield Bad Company is just another Battlefield game where you can play as several classes of infantry and quickly hop into light vehicles, APCs, tanks, and helicopters. Play it for a bit and it doesn’t take long to notice some new and significant additions such as a tangible single player game, destructible environments, but also a lot of small bugs / flaws. Unlike most g...

A Summer Blockbuster of a game! 0
Bad Company is one of those games you could take a good five minutes looking at someone else play and actually be satisfied and happy that you did. The way the game presents everything to you during the course of both the single player and multiplayer, it will most likely make your jaw drop. DICE did a great job of you actually feeling the game while actually playing it. They used several new technologies in the game that definitely help make the game have that difference as to not be too closel...

Good, just not great 0
In the past the Battlefield games have been an enjoyable multiplayer experience and a single player campaign that is marginally enjoyable. Well this time Bad Company has a very solid campaign mode that is more than just training for multiplayer. First thing to notice is that this game looks really good and has very nice cut scenes. This is a real next gen version of Battlefield.The single player campaign places you in a war with Russia in Eastern Europe. Eventually the game's story takes a t...

A shooter worthy of your time 0
Battlefield: Bad Company has set a new standard in environment interactivity. The destructible environment is much more than a gimmick. This dynamic truly defines this game, separating it from the many shooters available today. With almost every building wall destructible, you can create your own paths, or set up strategic flanking maneuvers. Not only is the destructibility amazing on a game play level, but also visually. These explosions look good. Real good. Another neat twist is the unlimited...

I just like it when stuff blows up.. 3
If you've played and enjoyed Battlefield: Modern Combat multiplayer then you know exactly what to expect with Bad Company. Dice takes battlefield games to a whole new level with Bad Company both with the new comedic spin on a squad of soldiers sent out before the real army to do some initial damage and basically, not get in the way. But simultaneously redefining the war game genre for all games to come. Let's start with visual & audio presentation. Visually Battlefield Bad Company is ...

Battlefield is one of those games that are beloved by many PC gamers and held in such high regard that to consider putting the game on a console is blaspheme, but they rest easy when I tell you that this game is fantastic. I held off buying this game on launch day because a part of me always thought this game wouldn't be any good but boy was I wrong. The single player is great and has a fulfilling story as well as some remember able characters who exchange some witty dialogue, through out the ga...

A fair game. Multiplayer is awesome. 0
Battlefield: Bad Company is a game that promises amzing destructive environments and it sure does promise. Nearly everything can be blown up or destroyed in some way. Trees can be shot down, walls can be blown out of the side of buildings. Blowing up stuff has never been this fun. The single player campaign lacks in how short it is, but the funny characters and environments make up for it slightly. It definitely could have been longer.But what really shines in Bad Company is the multiplayer. It ...

Battlefield: Bad Company 0
I admit that I never was into the Battlefields on PC, I was always a Counter Strike kinda dude. (untill it got dumb). So i was kinda meh about playing this on my Consoles. But i have to admit, it kinda surprised me. I actually played Battlefield when it was on the last gen consoles, and thought the singleplayer was really lackluster. In fact, i would go so far as to say it was just filler. This time around, that is not the case. While not on the quality of say a Halo, its still a pretty good Sin...

Why you may or may not of played any of the previous Battlefield games you should at least give this one a go. With the new Frost game engine that they made this game with there is a new level of realistics to the FPS Genre. As you have heard by now yes you can blow walls apart. Great aspect of the game. If you are playing the game single player be prepared for some long missions. The missions seem to drag on but overall they are fun. The multiplayer aspect of the game is the best thing by far. ...
