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. | Key Features

| 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! September 30, 2008
T. Thacker (Georgia, USA)
Single Player is ok, but the XBox Live multiplayer is so GREAT that it brings the game a solid 5 star rating! Hours and hours of tremendous fun!
Amazing and ridiculously fin multiplayer! August 29, 2008
M. Rodriguez (Glendale, CA USA)
I must say that the single player campaign was average, it was enjoyable. Consider the campaign a training mission series for multiplayer. The multiplayer game is off the charts good! Vehicles, mortars, airstrikes, artillary, helicopters, anti-air weapons, dozens upon dozens of weapons in massive battles on really enjoyable maps! Mostly everything in the game is destructible, if it grows, is built or is in the way you can usually find a way to blow it up or saw through it with a sub machine gun. I got a lot more than I expected from this game!

This game is very fun as you advance in the game every level gets harder to complete.
Great Single Player August 24, 2008
P. Attanasio (FPO, AA USA)
I can't connect for multi-player, so I generally stick to games that have single player action. This game is refreshing with the comedic dialog from Haggard and Sweetwater as you progress through each level of battle. The overall action of the game is great as well as being able to do damage to structures now.
 Different than what I expected, but still fun August 18, 2008
TechGuy77
I love COD4, and thought this would be somewhat like it, but I wasn't too disappointed to find it different, it is still a great game, maybe not COD4 great, but great nonetheless. Takes some getting used to, but once its there its fun. Fun to drive and shoot from the vehicles.
