    Brace yourselves, this is a real thing happening.

    Fox has put in development Bad Company, an hourlong action comedy based on EA's bestselling video game from Alias alum John Eisendrath, Sony TV and studio-based Happy Madison.

    Written by Eisendrath, Bad Company features the main characters from the game. It follows four renegade soldiers as they exit military life and enter the private sector. But trouble is never far behind as they realize their commanding officer had used them to further the ends of a shadow unit within the government and now wants them dead to cover his tracks. Eisendrath is executive producing with Happy Madison's Doug Robinson and EA's Patrick Bach and Patrick O'Brien.

    that could be good, if done properly. Dont make it focused around any kind of romance and all about war.

    I'm assuming this means we will never get another Bad Company game?

    Awesome, it's written by none of the people who wrote the funny dialog I liked in the games.

    Pro Tip: You can easily hide all posts by any user. PM me for info + list of trolls to block (now with auto updates!)

    I just want to say--again--something I have said many, many times before: Dispel the notion that a game starts at a 10, and gets points "docked" from it. That would be a really silly way to review a game.

    Game reviews aren't mathematical logarithms. They are the result of an experience that makes an impression on the mental and emotional superhighway of the game reviewer. I don't have a spreadheet that starts with a 10 and has calculations built in, where "low frame rate" = a .25 hit to the score. It doesn't work that way, and thank God for that.

    They won't.

    The series will fail 5 minutes after the first episode airs.

    If anything it means there is a better chance. If people like the show it'll generate a huge amount of interest in Bad Company 3.

    Wouldn't be surprised if it got cancelled before the first commercial break.
