Bad news for Bad Company, it's delayed

The delay will push Bad Company back from its original release of "early 2008" to a a more general 2008 release. That means there will be no Bad Company next month or the month after, but there's a possibility it could hit retailers later this Spring, sometime in the Summer or even this Fall. We'll keep an eye out for an official release date when EA confirms one, but while we wait for that, we advise twiddling your thumbs. It'll not only make the time go by much quicker, but it will also prepare you for the thumb twiddling Olympics. Seriously.

Not sure about this game anyways.
With what has been said about Army of Two recently and seeing the constant attempt at humor in the Bad Company trailers, I have little excitement for this game.

@Fenix,
Based on the artical posted here about that site that played a near complete build of Army of two I wouldnt touch that game with a ten foot pole much less purchase it. I'll have to wait and see what 1up, IGN, GI, G4, Yahtzee and my beloved X3f have to say about that game first.

Also, Don't forget about the Club comming out in FEB. That demo was sweet. I just wish it was longer and offered online play. Just from going off of what I saw in the demo, I get the impression that the Club is like Unreal in the fact that it has no Campaign, I hope this is not the case with this game that has some serious potentual.

I am Jack's complete lack of surprise.
Seriously, while the Battlefield games are fun, they are notoriously buggy. I just hope they spend the time ironing out all the bugs.

hahaha!
EA "irons" out the bugs by releasing another game 1 year later.

Well Gamespot did a near final build preview and it wasnt too bad, but then again it was Gamespot. Trust me Im waiting for the reviews as well. I just hope it scores 8 or higher because I love co-op games.

ah, GameSpot - the site that EA has a monstrous advertising budget with?

I hope it's not delayed too long, and I'm keeping the fingers crossed it'll be as much fun as the last one was.

Very disappointed with the lack of a witty photoshop for that image, guys. Definitely more disappointed than I am about the delay it's supposed to convey.

After further playing the club I have to take back what I said about the game:( It appears to have no campaign mode at all(not 100 percent sure on this but I dont see it in the menue at all) and is in desperate need of a cover system.
Out side of that, the game looks and runs nice but ultimatley reminds me of stranglehold without tequila bombs and the ability to slow time down:(
