| 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. |

Summary: Enjoyable 2008-11-18
Comment: I have been gaming for almost 2 years now and I consider myself a casual gamer. I was never an FPS fan until this showed up. This game is the first FPS that I actually finished (although on easy). I thoroughly enjoyed this game throughout. The story and characters are very funny. Haggard is hilarious. Graphics are amazing. But the best part is the destroyability of the surroundings. Depending on what gun/weapon you are using... you can take down small vehicles, trees, buildings, water tanks... almost everything you see in this game. You can even use your knife to tear apart wired and wooden fences. It does not sound much fun until you actually do it. In every level, after I was done shooting all the enemies, I'd roam around the village and blow the $hit off of every structure in sight.
Here are few things I liked:
- Environment destroyability
- Weapons (it has a huge number guns/rifles available, all based on real weapons... I never realized that there were that many)
- Sound (each gun makes a distinct sound, explosions sound very loud and real, vehicle sounds are also very realistic)
- Graphics (one of the best)
- Story, voice acting, dialogues
- Online gameplay (although I did not play much to comment about it, having this option is never bad)
I do not have any complaints from this game. I thoroughly enjoyed it and I totally recommend this game to anyone. It is worth the money.

Summary: Better than COD4, World at War, and MGS4 for Multiplayer... 2008-11-14
Comment: Even to this day, I play the PC version of BF2. It is still very fun, and I see a lot of folks on...
Sooo...It was nice to see BF4 (Bad Company) come out; I had to give it a buy. I am glad I did. The single player is just blah. Think of it as a tutorial; a place where you get used to your tools of the trade, so to speak.
But multiplayer? Ahh, yes, very nice. You see, in my view, COD4 is a toy. It is an arcade style game, with all of that up close, intense, in-your-face, run-and-gun action. And, MGS4? Come on...Why all the hype? Crappy single player mode, it was so linear, so confining...And its multiplayer? Lame. You feel like an old man running around! Massively over-hyped; It should be illegal, I tell ya!
But, BF4's MP? Class-based, land/air/sea vehicles, nearly completely destructable environments, the most beautiful sounding, wide dynamic, realistic sounds I have ever heard in a game, graphics are excellent, now has capture the flag, 24 player maps, and these maps are expansive...It's just good times for all. Really, really, really fun multiplayer!
Sometimes I just love chillin' out in the game somewhere a little off from the action, listening to the fantastic war sounds...Absolutely beautiful to the ears!
Join the fun! I miss killing you already! ;)
October 30, 2008 Update: They have just added-in a bunch more free maps! Yahoo!!!!
November 12, 2008 Update: I have been playing COD: World at War, and Bad Company is so much better. COD4 and WoW have such cheap graphics and sound. Why do so many folks play COD games? Honestly folks...Put in a COD game, even the latest one, then pop in Bad Company. See the huge difference in sound, graphics, expansive maps? BC wins hands down!
BTW, I made these same comments for the Gold Edition, as I have that one. Doesn't matter, I believe this game deserves much more traffic...
Regards,

Summary: Great Game 2008-11-02
Comment: This is an all around great game! The single player is a blast. Good length, not too long, not too short.
The multi player is where it is really at though. I can't say enough about how fun it is. I would even go as far to say its better than COD4 in multi player. The class system is great and the vehicles do a lot to level the playing field and add a new dynamic.
This game is a must have!
