Battlefeild: Bad Company

If you're a fan of the Battlefeild series, you know this game. It's a game in a fictional reality about a war against Russia.

Bad Company is about that war. In this game, though, you play as Preston Marlow. An offender as a soldier, he could have been sent to jail, but instead he was deemed "expendable" and becomes the new member of a 4-man team, the B-Company. The B-Company consists of expendable soldiers sent in on impossible missions, not expected to survive.

The game soon becomes about greed. Lots and lots of greed. A mercenary group is paid in gold bars (money is so overrated, man.) And apparently it's awesome to get, but it really doesn't do anything I can see.

Gameplay could be better. But there are a few things I like about it. Instead of sitting behind walls waiting for little swiss-cheesed pieces of yourself to magically come back, you have what I call, a magic-heally stick! Equip it, jam it in your stomach and you're good to go!

Storyline is followed easily, and it puts you in weird situations where things blow up around you like crazy. (Did I mention that everything is destroyable? Win.) And seems to make you feel like a good part of the fight.

AI is kinda dumb. I swear, Haggard once shot a BAZOOKA at a wall 3-feet in front of his face. And none of them can hit an ELEPHANT with ELEPHANT SEEKING BULLETS.

Overall, Bad Company is a great game. It gets 8 and a half exploded tanks, out of 10.
