Video Game Reviews of Battlefield: Bad Company
Customer Review: Awesome!
Summary: 5 Stars
Both online and single player is pretty entertaining. This is the type of game that people end up spending their entire weekend (and longer) playing non-stop; So, if you feel like being completely unproductive for a while then get this game.Customer Review: BAD COMPANY
Summary: 5 Stars
EA Games' Battlefield series is leading the pack in 1st person shooter simulations and offer not only ultra-realistic graphic experience for the player but also have captured the battlefield "rush" and "excitement" that is as close as you can get without being there! A must buy for anyone who wants to experience video gaming at its best...Customer Review: Underrated

$20! Twenty dollars for one of the most fun multilayer experiences out there! This is one of those games that I kept telling myself I would get. Well, it wasn't a definite must have for me so I went a while without purchasing it. My friend picked it up then told me he got it for twenty bucks. Twenty dollars! It's not even a year old and it's less then twenty dollars! It does so much right too. The audio system will blow your mind. You'll see a bomb drop in the distance and then get the sound wave a second later. You'll fire a sniper rifle in a house and the sound will reverberate off the walls and even the shell dropping will have it's own sound, unique to the environment. The frostbite engine was definitely a nice move by DICE. And the destructible environments; ahh! As objects, and even the ground itself, come apart the gameplay will change drastically. When a team holds out at a base for the whole game, that means a lot. When the enemy first attack, there will be tons of cover and every thing will be familiar to players. But as tanks keep pounding the living poop out of the base the buildings will start to deteriorate in ways that seem different every game. Enemies will start to enter throw a hole in the wall that wasn't there before. A vehicle will cruise throw land that was previously covered with trees. The squad that was holding up in the house will have a really tough time as they start to have close to no cover (some parts of objects can't be completely destroyed). You may think that this destructible environment stuff is just a novelty, but it creates a very unique experience. It creates very cinematic moments in multiplayer. Think about that! Normally singleplayer is the only place in games where you have to sit back and just think about what just happened. Half of a building got blown away and then you just stood there in a staring contest with the tank that did it. Then it got taken out by a sniper's airstrike. Wow!
The single player...hard to say. It's much better then anything other Battlefield games have dished up, but that's not saying much. The campaign is worth playing though. It's short, fun, has some funny moments, and raps up pretty well. Multiplayer is the real draw of this game though.
Lets review; $20 compared to $40 for must games this old. In these tough economic times that money you save could be put to other things like shoe laces and tipping waiters. The audio is mind blowing. The dynamically changing environments create a fun, unique, and thrilling experience. And this is Battlefield. DICE knows how created a well balance multilayer game that flows (yes, I'm the one who keeps calling in airstrikes on your tanks). Get this game.
Welcome to Bad Company.

Battlefield: Bad Company was funny. The explosions were cool, and the plot wasn't too shabby for a war game. It was unusual, and the characters were humorous. But... it was just missing something. Don't get me wrong, it was fun to play; it consumed my life for 5 days. But, it was rather short, rather easy and rather mediocre. Would I play the sequel? Yes. But I would wait for a significant price drop, or I'd rent it. Customer Review: Unfinished Product

How does a company get away with selling something that doesn't work?
I just accepted the forced PS3 2.7 Update. And this lame game still freezes up after only 4 rounds. It doesn't allow you to choose maps, only to suggest a preference, so it can better disappoint you. When your in the tank, if you get killed, it says Suicide and deducts 10 points from you. You get stuck loading maps where the game is over before you are even loaded. Then it cycles you into the next map after yours is done and you have to shut down the game and reload it to be able to try and get the map you want. Then the TeamKillers. 4th grade retards that think it's fun to walk up behind their own teammates and slit their throat. They rack up the highest negative score by killing their own team for -10 to -15 per kill, and you can't kick them. This Game Sucks, it should be great, but this greedy design team doesn't bother to fix the issues that are wrong with it, they just move on to another version to screw you out of your cash again. I got took for $70 for the Gold Version the day it came out. The creators of this game should be strapped to the front of a tank and used for a bumpers in a real war. The PC game was excellent, this should be labeled Broken Unplayable Battle. Greedy Cheating Thieves.
