Product Description

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.

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.

Awesome, but was expecting a little more
 
Review Date: August 28, 2010
Reviewer: Alex Rogers,
This game was extremelly fun to play. my only problem was with the lack of onlone game modes. Dont get me wrong, this game is awesome, BUT i dont recommend playing this game if you have already played bad company 2 as it may bore you a little, It only features "gold" rush, and conquest game modes, and does not have weapon challenged at all. Very good game, just a little seemingly repetetive after a while.
An ok game

Reviewer: Carrot Top,
I was a little surprised with this game. It's ok, but I didn't enjoy it as much as any of the COD games or the game's sequel BC2. It was a little too hard and your teammates couldn't hit the broadside of a barn. Also the replay value isn't good. Overall, this isn't a great game. Don't expect anything great if you decide to buy it.
Better Than I Thought!

I bought this game for my grandson's Birthday & he absolutely LOVES it. Plays all the time.
He turned 12 on June 24th....It arrived way before his Birthday, which pleased me very much!
If ever i need to do business again with that company, it would be my pleasure.
"BAD COMPANY", SAYS WHO?

Reviewer: G. Bowman Jr., Greater Washington DC Metro Area
"BATTLEFIELD: BAD COMPANY" is like being in a big screen movie akin to "THE DIRTY DOZEN", except that you get to be an active part of the action; explosions all around you, enemy tanks aplenty, suddenly attacking you, and your "BAD-COMPANY" squad, assisted by their Air Support Gun Ships, and sneaky relentless ground troops that are determined to end your existence!

Even the Theme Song implies that you're going to be in for a thrilling good time, from the very beginning. The Single Player maps are plentiful, with good scenery, and lots of different scenarios and situations, including manning and flying a Cobra style helicopter: taking off, piloting and/or helming the Gunner's seat, landing, and if you survive the onslaught, emergency landing, fighting to find fuel and get it back in time before another onslaught of troops and armored vehicles blow the smithereens out of it!

The CG are dynamic, and there are plenty of weapons to recover from dying enemies as you and your B-Company squad race from one task to another---all the while---trying to steal as many gold bars from the enemy [and smuggling them under the noses of your regiment] as you can along the journey. It's become one of my favorite games, and I look forward to a "BATTLEFIELD: BAD COMPANY 3"... GBJ
