Battlefield: Bad Company is probably the best FPS I've ever played. It brings a whole new mechanic into multiplayer with the ability to blow through walls, and has a huge selection of weapons that each have their own advantages.
Graphics: A. I'm not sure if the framerate is better then CoD4's 60 frames per second but all the animations are great and the explosions look very realistic.
Sound: A+. Best in any game. Period. From the shots from a machine gun to the clanking of bullet shells on the ground, this game has the best sound effects in any game. You will even notice how your footsteps echo while you're in small rooms.
Single Player: A. The main focus of the Bad Company campaign seems to just try to make you laugh. Although there is nothing funny about war, your squadmates will shout out hilarious one-liners and the cutscenes are even better. As for the story, it just seemed like a last-minute idea that the developers threw into the game. It's not a bad story, just not an epic one like in the Metal Gear Solid Series.
Multiplayer: A+. The multiplayer in Bad Company makes up for not having a two-player splitscreen or co-op. You fight on battlefields inspired by the campaign levels. There are two teams, attackers or defenders, and each on has to destroy or protect gold crates. The maps are huge, and you have a 3D mini-map that displays the objectives and where your friends are. With the ability to blow through walls, the game is entirely changed. Instead of shooting at a far away sniper with your assault rifle, how about your blow up the whole building he is hiding in. Or if a doorway is too well guarded, take out an RPG and make your own door. And with the new squad spawn (you can spawn with one of your teammates instead of back at your base), one attacker can become four in a second and the defenders will have to deal with that many more people. In addition, multiplayer matches always have great connection, being disconnected is practically unheard of.
Classes: There are 5 player classes who each have their own advantages, and here is a quick summary of them:
Assault: Use a quick firing and accurate gun to kill enemies. If you get shot, you have an infinite life source that you can use repeatedly. Disadvantages of assault: assault players don't really have a way of killing vehicles, despite the grenade launcher which is too weak to take down a tank.
Demolition: Use a powerful shotgun at close range to kill your enemies with one shot. You can also plant mines for tanks, or you can shoot them with an RPG. Disadvantages of demolition: the RPG will shoot far away, but there is no actual way to take down enemies from afar.
Recon: Use a sniper to take out far away enemies. If a tank or any other vehicle is threatening you, use a laser designator to target the vehicle and steer an air strike towards your target. Disadvantages of recon: even though your pistol is powerful, it can't stand up to an assault rifle or shotgun at close range.
Specialist: Use a gun with an extremely high rate of fire to quickly and quietly take out your enemy. You also have a tracer gun the can point outenemy vehicles to the demolitionists on your team. Also you have C4 which can be thrown and then remotely detonated, which is great for defending key points. Disadvantages of specialist: None really, except to take down a tank you have to walk right up to it to plant the C4, but other than that in my opinion it is the most well-rounded class. Many would say assault is well-rounded, but they can heal themselves which is really helpful.
Support: The medics, but don't get me wrong these guys are dangerous. Use a machine gun to mow down your enemies. You can repair vehicles and heal teammates for massive amounts of points. Also you can call in an airstrike and kill many enemies without getting your hands dirty. Disadvantages of support: None. With the ability to heal yourself and your teammates, and to keep a steady stream of bullets on your enemy while they reload their guns, support could easily be the best class. If only more people on my team chose to be them, I wouldn't have to hide in a corner after losing virtually all my health from an sniper shot or an RPG.
Well, so much for keeping it short and sweet. But I really think this much information is needed when you decide to buy a game. I could go on and on, but this should give you a nice taste of the game.
