Battlefield: Bad Company (PS3) Review

[RobRich]

Bad Company's real appeal lies in a confluence of innovations that may not be immediately apparent. Despite this being the freshman effort by seasoned PC developer DICE to build a single-player campaign with a genuine narrative, the plot and characters are surprisingly rich and, most importantly, decidedly different from those of the FPS games that it resembles. And as opposed to being strictly cosmetic, the ability to skeletonize structures has actual impact on gameplay that carries through to the multiplayer, enhancing the entire experience by offering unique tactical options. And that single Attack/Defend multiplayer mode is not the least bit restrictive due to the variation found in class composition and the wealth of extremely well-tuned maps.

I want, but I've run the game budget dry until Sept...but then it will be Christmas before it drops below the $40 max price I'm willing to pay for a game (if I'm lucky).

Dude how can you say that? COD4 is one of the best online games that are out for PS3. Your Nuts.

I dont have a PS3 ... and frankly the little bit i did play made me want to buy it but only when it was on sale. Its essentially the same game as EVERY OTHER SHOOTER! ... there isnt much new or different and frankly the controls on a console suck in general. Never the same as mouse and keyboard. Dont even try to tell me to put a mouse and keyboard on a PS3 or 360 cause that just tells me you wish you gamed on a real PC.
