Hey! One second, let me destroy this wall... *boom*
The legendary Battlefield series makes its first appearance on the next-gen consoles with Battlefield: Bad Company 2. Packed with humor, explosions, and a huge array of vehicles this is truly a Battlefield game.
One of the core gameplay mechanics is the ability to destroy the environment, you can use a grenade launcher on the wall of a house and the wall will blow apart, and cease to exist. It is a lot of fun, and once you play this, games with static environments like Call of Duty will bore you.
For most of the singleplayer you will be with your squad, Bad Company, there are three squad mates, and they each have their own personality, and they will discuss various topics, and make you laugh while doing it. The story is engaging, and this might sound strange, but you can understand what is going on at all times, its very clear and well written.
But, you aren't going to be buying this for the singpleplayer, Battlefield games have always prided themselves on fun and addicting multiplayer, and Bad Company has some of the best multiplayer I have played on a next-gen console. The destruction is present in the multiplayer, so if someone is camping from inside a house, you can just blow the house up with a tank, C4, RPG or helicopter.
There are two game-modes, Rush and Conquest. In Rush you are trying to destroy a pair of objectives while the other team defends.
In Conquest you capture control points, and whichever team has the majority of the control points will cause the other team to lose their reinforcements. Its complicated to explain, but let me tell you, it is very, very fun.
Overall Battlefield: Bad Company is a great experience for both the singleplayer and multiplayer. I have spent over 75 hours playing the multiplayer and have loved every minute of it.
