Xbox 360 Gamers Celebrate Independence Day with Battlefield: Bad Company

If you have not given the Demo of Battlefield: Bad Company a go then you may not know what your missing out on, it may lack many features that Call of Duty 4 has but this game is one that also has many extra features that COD4 does not have and Call of Duty 5 Modern War may not even have. In particular I love the destroyable environments and picking up a rocket launcher and making a hole in a building wall. It’s style of gameplay is a little different to other popular titles, but with a little time you not only get used to it but playing the demo leaves you wanting more and that’s the full version coming to the world in days.

To celebrate Independence Day, Xbox Live are marketing the special day with some online gameplay fun and a whole weekend of competitions and different events. Read the release below for the full details.
