Battlefield: Bad Company release date today for Xbox 360 and PS3

It seems that the rules of the first-person shooter games are changing, when a player has been under attack in the past all they had to do was hide behind a sandbag or behind a wall. Well it seems that Battlefield: Bad Company changes all that, the game which has its release date today in the U.S will be available for the Xbox 360 as well as the Sony PS3. The thing is if you hide behind such an object in this latest first-person shooter, then you will find that you will now not be safe. Let’s say you are taking heavy fire, the first thing you would normally do is retreat to a house, well now the house can be taken out with a grenade or rocket launcher.

The original Battlefield was always for the PC, but Battlefield 2: Modern Combat changed that and made the jump to the next-gen console, the Xbox 360. Some gamers did enjoy the transition a little, but it seemed to lose a little something. However Battlefield: Bad Company is about to change all that, not only is it the first game in the series to have a story to it, but it is also the first game to utilize the all-new Frostbite engine. It is that software that makes it possible for a destructible environment.

The story behind Bad Company follows Private Preston Marlow, who you have to play; he is a new recruit to a division of the army known simply as Bad Company. The group is a misfit of soldiers, these consist of Sarge, Haggard and the love struck Sweetwater as well as Marlow. Each of these soldiers has their own personality, as well as some cool and funny dialogue. The first missions start of all innocent, but as the game progresses things get very hectic.

The game itself is very light-hearted, and it is that which hurts the games the most. The problem is the war is very intense however; all the characters in Bad Company what to do is joke around as well as make fun of each other. Some might like this sort of thing, but others will find this to be in bad taste. You do have to remember, that although the guys are at war, it does not mean that they have to be serious all the time. One thing is certain; this is one hell of a game, one that should be on your list to purchase.
