Battlefield Bad Company is the most fun, addictive shooter released so far this year.

An entertaining and well-designed game experience that keeps the action flowing. The Frostbite engine ramps up the strategic elements and the game's story arc does a nice job of tying all game elements together.

There are plenty of flaws that FPS gurus will be able to nitpick about, but Bad Company delivers a fun-filled single-player campaign with a multiplayer component that can stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the best in our industry.
