Abstract: The bad company in question here is a squad of misfits – these arent the classy, committed, highly trained troops to be found in most war games. That, along with the superlative visuals and sound effects, lends Bad Company a patina of reality thats m...
Abstract: Much like the Chelsea team roster, the first-person shooter genre has become well known for being over populated and prone to under performance. However, just like the Russian-owned London football club, there is the odd genuine star turn mixed in amon...
Abstract: EABad 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 multiplaye...
Bottomline: Battlefield: Bad Company not only redefines the way we will look at games from now on, it also changes the way in which we will play them. After a tour of duty in B-Company you might be ruined for all your previous war games, and if future games don&rsquo...
Abstract: Most of these objectives involve taking out between five to ten soldiers with a mix of weapons and possibly some tougher gun emplacements or vehicles to back them up, and you may have to destroy some kind of equipment as well. This rather un-original ...
Good: Great story told from a unique perspective; blowing stuff up; team-oriented multiplayer.
Bad: Eastern Europe left in shambles after all this destruction; vehicle camera sometimes bothersome.
Bottomline: If you only played a demo of Battlefield: Bad Company, youd be forgiven for shrugging your shoulders and assuming that its just like every other first-person shooter with a multiplayer focus. It certainly appears that way during the first couple of m...
Abstract: The rules of first-person shooters are changing. Videogames that engage the player in acts of war have always promised one thing; cover. During times of extreme duress the player has always had the option of retreating behind a wall or group of immovab...
Abstract: On the PC, Battlefield is one of the biggest names there is. Its the daddy of large-scale online shooters; the online war that everybody wants to sign up for. On the console formats, however, the brand hasnt had the same sort of impact, and a l...
Abstract: The latest in the phenomenally successful Battlefield series, Bad Company is something of a departure for developers DICE. Not only is it the first in the series to be designed specifically for consoles but itll also be home to the strongest single pl...
Abstract: However, it seems EA were intent on tarnishing the experience for you. What could have been the perfect game has been hindered on achieving that status not due to the gameplay itself. No, that would make scoring the game too easy. The challenge EA ha...
Abstract: There have been enough war-themed shooters in recent years to stretch to the moon and back, so its hard to raise enthusiasm for yet another bullet-riddled sortie. Thankfully Bad Company skirts a minefield of cliche to deliver an exciting and memorable...
Good: Blowing stuff up has rarely been this fun, Great collection of gadgets and vehicles, Massive 24-player maps, Finally, a fleshed-out single-player game, Excellent balance in player classes, vehicle strength, and map layouts
Bad: Some enemies in campaign never graduated basic training, Conquest mode not available at launch, Graphics and textures appear grainy
Bottomline: With its great multiplayer action and fleshed-out single-player campaign, Bad Company really isnt bad at all. ...
