This is evidently seen in the subtle organic feel of the characters of Bad Company, tending towards a down-to-earth portrayal of soldiers. Players will again take the role of Preston Marlowe accompanied by the same ragtag crew of misfits that composed Bad Company. This time around, the story is more straightforward than the clouded morality and greed focused motivator of the last game. Interestingly enough, the events of the first game and its aftermath are never actually discussed in the sequel. Instead, the Bad Company is tasked with stopping an incredibly powerful super weapon from being activated by an evil Russian. The gist is pretty much in line with the Modern Warfare antics as of late, utilizing ludicrous scenarios as the last ditch resort to saving the good ol’ United States.","https:\u002F\u002Fmonstervine.com\u002F2010\u002F03\u002Fbattlefield-bad-company-2-review-singleplayer\u002F","2010-03-26","3",60,6,[20],[25],[]]
