Bad Company will also finally feature completely destructible environments. Fans of the series have always wished for this to be added each and every time and it’s finally arrived. It’s being reported that the classes will be minimized for the sake of adding greater customization for the rest of the classes that make the cut. The game is also set to feature some modern weaponry with a mix of future weapons since the game is placed a couple of years into the future. Enthusiasts won’t have to fret though, as these weapons will not be highly unrealistic as that would slant against the rest of the game. You’ll have to wait and see if Battlefield: Bad Company can live up to its predecessors when it hits store shelves on March 24th.

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed is set to release in 2008. For those of you who can’t get enough of this saga, you’ll be pleasantly surprised and/or saddened by the storyline that occurs throughout the title in question.

With a year of firsts, this game is no exception. You will be privileged with the opportunity to be Darth Vader’s young apprentice.
