Battlefield Bad Company - Review


Bad Company is a first person shooter that is trying to be the leader of the pack but fails pretty badly.

Yes the visuals are good and the cinematic's (mostly) look great and one could argue the story is funny, not that I found it funny at all.

There are too many problems here for me to recommend. Firstly the actual gameplay is pretty bad. The AI even on the lowest difficulty are ruthless, so bad that you could be 1 mile from an enemy and just see him on the screen and he will spot you and still be getting you for damage from that far, I mean really, what a joke.

The actual movement is also sloppy and you will often find yourself stuck for a split second before sorting out the ordinary controls.

The graphics in Bad Company are good but not great. What this game has got going for it is that you can blow stuff up. Can't find a way into this building? Just blow the side of the building up, presto, instant access.

Overall this game is a bit of a drag. I have no idea why this game is popular online. My experience with the multiplayer action was shocking. If you want to play some FPS multiplayer stick with Call Of Duty 4.

Gameplay = 7
Visuals = 7.5
Sound = 7
Game Now Score = 7.1/10
