Is this summer shooter the game to keep you away from COD4?

Jun 23, 2008

It’s finally arrived – and while the silly story, drab voice acting, contrived dialogue and limp characterisation made us wince more than once, the world that it takes place in is more than enough to compensate for said errors. For the uninitiated out there, the story of Bad Company is this: you play Preston Marlow, a new recruit in B Company (hence the title) working with a ragtag threesome of war vets in the midst of a ...

Battlefield: Bad Company - updated hands-on

We tackle the game's final mission with guns a'blazin'

May 13, 2008

With Battlefield: Bad Company, the big question is whether or not the series’ trademark multiplayer action can be translated into a single player campaign. At EA’s Spring Showcase, we got the chance to play Battlefield: Bad Company’s final single-player mission, Ghost Town and see for ourselves. This mission is the Company’s final run at the elusive mercenary gold they’ve been chasing. As the ... » Read Full Battlefield: Bad Company preview

"Destructible? Everything must go!"

Feb 22, 2008

While we generally lavished praise on the last Battlefield, Modern Combat, we had to admit to being slightly disappointed that the single-player game amounted to nothing more than an aperitif for the very, very tasty multiplayer main course. This has always been Battlefield’s intention though. Bad Company, on the other hand, has been built from scratch with DICE’s brand new Frostbite engine, which not only significantly ups the ... » Read Full Battlefield: Bad Company preview

Battlefield Bad Company - first look

Destroy your expectations

Jun 20, 2007

The newest Battlefield game doesn't seem like a Battlefield game at all. Luckily, that's exactly what its creators had in mind - something different. To begin with, this entry in the acclaimed multiplayer-focused series is much more interested in single player. Everyone knows Battlefield can handle intense online competition, which is why the makers of Bad Company are eager to prove that it can also excel at storytelling and characters. Soldiers at your control aren't generic avatars anymore. ... » Read Full Battlefield: Bad Company preview

Bearded men dish it out

Feb 2, 2007

Were not sure if its just the freedom of artistic license or some sort of a grave premonition of a barrage of new and imaginative weapons that North Korea will soon be able to use to blow us all into tiny, dust mite-sized pieces... but between GRAW 2 and Battlefield: Bad Company, it seems to be de rigeur to set your war games in the near future. Although theres few solid details on the weapons to be featured in Bad Company, from the little weve seen its clear that as in GRAW, future technology ... » Read Full Battlefield: Bad Company preview
