- mostly a good game
i really liked this game,great with a rumble pad but it's not up there with the call of duty 4's and half life 2's of this world.
it's great to blow stuff up but not all stuff blows up which is a bit odd.the guys that you fight with in the story mode are really thick and dont help you at all but i suppose that is the way they made it so you do the work yourself,it just detracts from the realism for me.
the story mode is good i would give it 7/10 as it's a bit basic and short.
online is great and feels like war would so i give that 9/10.
the graphics are good underneath that fuzzy filter!! why oh why did they put that grainy effect over the graphics,i wish there was an option to get rid of it,it's a crying shame it really is.
i recommend this game preowned but i wouldn't pay full price for it as it's good but not that good.

Rating: - CONQUEST MAKES IT WORTHWHILE
Initially I was a little dissapointed with Bad Company... after playing Battlefield over the years on the PC I was hoping for more of the same...but the Gold Rush mode just didn't do it for me. I thought it was way too streamlined to be of the Battlefield genre - too much intense, linear game play that didn't really give you much choice for strategy or squad play.
However, now the classic Conquest mode has landed on the scene my opinion has changed and my hours gaming has increased. This is what Battlefield has always been about - freedom to do what you want to do - not to be told whether you must attack or defend! And the whole destructive environment adds a whole new exciting dimension to the gameplay.
Squad play has improved but not massively - you don't get to choose your squad and there is no communication, be it voice or message comms. There's still big room for improvement but hopefully these points will be addressed in further updates/releases.
With dedicated no lag servers, thousands of players online and more maps on the way, the future is looking bright for Battlefield on the PS3!
Rating: - Bang! and the map is gone!
Battlefield: Bad company is a first person shooter (ofcourse) with a sense of humour, the one-liners are certainly alot better than that of "Horatio Kane" of CSI:Miami fame.
The game is based around 4 soldiers in the B(ad) Compay, sent out into modern combat...
The single player is mediocre, my favourite line must be "I swear I saw a guy with an eye patch in that barrel/box" it made me laugh. You basically complete objectives over pretty huge maps, allowing you to go anywhere, it is reminiscent of Mercenaries on PS2, but better.
The guns certainly do feel powerful even with the lack of rumble, and the characters are also rather loveable, even is they are US Soldiers.
The main selling point of this game HAS to be the "90%" destructable environments, I remember first playing and spraying a round of fire at a group of trees, they splintered abit and then nothing, I looked again to see them all topple over into a woody heap.
The online mode of this game is both good and bad, ofcourse the destruction means you are NEVER safe, especially when you are camped up in a house, and hear a dreaded tank roll closer, and when that turret turns on you, your heart will skip a beat, thats for sure! The bad thing about Online, is that the game ships with ONE game mode. "Gold Rush", think Sabotage from CoD, but with Gold instead of Objectives, the objective is to find the enemies gold, and blow it up.
However a new update has seen a new mode released called Conquest, however I am yet to play this.
Please ignore people comparing this to CoD, okay, the online isn't as good, but this is in a different league, it runs paralell(can NEVER spell that) to call of duty, it does not compete against it. Simple as.
8/10
Rating: - Older gamer review
OK, I am 34, so probably older than a lot of people playing this game, though surely not the oldest!
First off, I do not have time to sit down and play a game for hours on end. I have maybe a couple of hours during the week and maybe a few hours at the weekend if I'm lucky.
On that basis, I have to say Bad Company is an ideal game. It is great fun, the individual missions are nicely broken up with automatic saves at key points, it has fast load times, the humour actually works, the graphics are very good (although some screen tearing does spoil it) and the sound, the sound is amazing.
I have a surround sound hifi separates 5.1 system. Bad Company sounds AWESOME. When I let off a grenade inside a building, BOOM. I had the doors shaking the last time I played!
I don't think my neighbours like me anymore. They have not complained. It might be something to do with the extremely loud gunfire.
As I already mentioned the missions are nicely broken up with saves. I find this very important given my limited playtime available. More than that however I have never found it frustrating to die and then restart a particular bit. I actually look forward to going back in and blowing stuff up. This contrasts with GTA4 where I get really sick and tired of having to start a 40 minute mission all over again (and having to buy guns and flak jackets beforehand etc). Restarting a mission in GTA4 is a chore, restarting a mission in Bad Company is immediate and painless. Maybe not a fair comparison given the games are so different, but there it is.
I am very happy I made this impulse buy.
