    I agree PC version is superior version and I already have everything set up for my PC on my TV as a prefer playing games on a television but will be getting 360 version for 2 reasons

    1. All my friends are getting the 360 version and being social-able is more important than being IMBA by myself

    2. Even if none of my friends were getting BF3 and got pc version and played it on my TV, it would make multiplayer unplayable for me, taking on keyboard and mouse players with a controller isn't going to be very fun, ie if you wanna play multiplayer games with a controller get a console version,

    Yep 360, not going to bother with PC cause it would require tons of work on my part to make it look close to how it does for the console, sigh I really should get a new gaming PC.

    Hook your PC up to your TV, sit back in your couch, connect your Xbox controller
    Not everyone can do this you know....

    Lets look at the OP:
    • Xbox ? check!
    • couch? check!
    • TV? check!
    • decent PC? :

    This seems like the best alternative possible.

    but also for PS3 for a more chilled and slow paced experience.

    I WAS going to get it on PC. I have a respectable computer, and would love to be one of the 64 players in a conquest match, but everything I've heard about Origin has completely turned me off to the idea.

    One of my co-workers installed it with the intention of pre-ordering Battlefield 3. While it was scanning his hard drive for "non-personally identifiable" information (that they can sell to 3rd parties as they see fit - something every BF3 PC player has allowed them to do...), it came across his encrypted files and couldn't leave them well enough alone, apparently, because he later found they had a file size of 0 bytes - wiped clean.

    Also, the fact that they can just get rid of your account after two years of inactivity really bothers me. I mean, I understand that 2 years is a long time, but this just gives me another reason to fear an all-digital future.

    The only way I'd get this game on PC is if I build a PC strictly for Origin games... which isn't going to happen unless it becomes economically viable in the future, somehow. Either way, I'm probably going to start reading ToSs now.

    I'll deal with 24 player matches and less-impressive-but-still-eye-burstingly-good graphics to keep my digital dignity. PS3 for me.

    I'm getting it on PS3, because I can't afford a new rig for the Pc version, and my current PC wont run it better than consoles will.

    For now, I will buy the Xbox 360 version. When I can finally afford a good gaming PC, I will buy the game for it.

    I might build a pc to play bf3, however if not console. I wont buy it though if it isnt any good. I honestly think MW3 is goin to be a huge disappointment. BF3 will in all likelyhood squash MW3 on pc. Heres hoping :)

    I have a very comfy seat in front of a WS 120hz monitor, and I have an awesome sound card, hooked up to my hassle free PC. Just what type of hassle are you referring to?

    Player count aside, Battlefield 3 will probably run better on the 360 than my mediocre PC and I have already made plans with XBL friends, so I will be getting it on that platform. Also, I like Xbox 360 achievements.

    I'll be playing this and Skyrim on the Xbox 360, as long as there is nothing intrinsically debilitating.

    Definitely for the 360. I don't exactly have a gaming PC.

    360. PC looks better and has more players, but my main computer is a school laptop with too little ability to even run TF2 without quite a bit of problems. Besides, I've always been a console gamer anyways, so it doesn't bother me.
