    Default Battlefield 3. Looks amazing.

    http://www.ea.com/battlefield3

    Check out the 12 minutes of in game HD footage they have on the site. The game looks like a cut scene. They've built a new engine that has expanded on BFBC2's destroyable environments which on it's own is miles ahead of most other shooters.

    They are the standard in team combat shooters and have been for a long time.

    It might be good, but I really didn't like BFBC2. I'm going to have to wait a bit before I think about buying it.

    I'm TIRED of FPS. That's all anyone ever puts out anymore.

    Looking forward to LA Noire. That should be a nice change of pace.

    Battlefield has always been about multiplayer modes. I remember 1942 didn't even have a single player to speak of, it was basically multiplayer where everyone else was computer controlled. The key differences is that while COD does the soldier v soldier well its an old design. BF has superior vehicle integration, lower foot speed v larger maps for a more strategic gameplay, and of course destroyable environments. A wooden won't save you from a shooter. A building can't save you from a tank. You can literally collapse a building if the enemy team can't stop you from shelling it.

    It feels great to see that building come down when you know there are 5 enemies "hiding" in it. Plus when you're flanking and you use c4 to make your own "entrance" through a wall... it makes for a great nice surprise.

    That looks like it was recorded from a really high priced and powerful PC. Will the PS3 or 360 be able to pull of those graphics?

    DirectX11 game vs a DX9 on the console, no way console will be able to keep up. Dice, the people who made BF:Bad Company 2 even admitted consoles were holding PC games back.

    That said I'll be saving up for a new card so I can run this beast*.

    *Hoping it'll be a beast and not a crappy port like some other games :\

    Previews and commercials are nice but they haven't shown anything multiplayer or vehicular yet

    Keep in mind that before BF3 and probably BFBC2 the single player mode was primarily a single player version of the multiplayer game with a bunch of bots. There was no CoD-like SP campaign plot. From what I've seen off the commercials and previews, the SP seems similar to what CoD has done.

    The main bread and butter of the BF series has always been online play, and the guy hogging the tank / jet blowing opponents to smithereens. It is the part of the game which is the most important, IMO, and the part I want to see the most. I mean, the SP campaign looks good, don't get me wrong, but I want to see the damn multiplayer modes.

    bought for SP, since I'm in love with war games taking place in modern times with realistic weapons. doubt i'll even turn the multiplayer on after i get bombed for a jet for the 15th time.

    Regardless, that is pretty impressive. Thanks, Des for sharing.

    Shame, BF2 was a solid game. Still play it every now and then.

    It's good fun as long as the teams are balanced. Different than CoD in that you roll around huge maps in cars or helicopters capturing flags.
