Battlefield: Bad Company Adding PS3 Trophies, Unlocking Bonus Weapons
9:40AM Michael McWhertor | EA’s hopping on the PlayStation Trophy badwagon, adding retroactive support for Sony’s answer to Achievements in an upcoming Battlefield: Bad Company update. The game joins PSN release NovaStrike as the latest to pledge Trophy support, making it borderline newsworthy as one of the new cool kids on the block. In addition to that change, the official Bad Company site writes that further tweaks are coming, including technical performance fixes and the availability of bonus weapons, previously only available to those who had pre-ordered or opted in to the newsletter.

Bad Company Conquest Mode Coming This Week
3:40AM Mike Fahey | EA DICE is making good on the promise of free DLC for Battlefield: Bad Company they made back in April of this year, introducing an all-new game mode to mix things up for players this Thursday. conquest Mode, first seen back in Battlefield 1942, pits two opposing teams against each other in a race to deplete the other team’s tickets. Killing an enemy takes off one ticket, while capturing and holding certain objectives can be a major drain on the opposition. While it’s only slightly different from the Gold Rush mode that came with the game – it plays out on the same maps – it does add just a bit of variety to the game’s already rich multiplayer experience. Plus, you finally have an excuse for just wandering all over the map killing random people instead of going after / protecting the enemy’s gold. Look for the update this Thursday for both the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions of the game. More »
