    To all the girls i love

    So listen. I am no fanboy. i could care less which game between this and MW3 sells more copys. But as an oldschool gamer from the beginning of gaming. i will call it how it is. This game is fun. If you like BF games you will like this game. the graphics are decent. (i have everything installed to my HDD) The Gameplay is what you would expect from a BF game. The depth of the MP is great. lots of thing to unlock. Sound is amazing. (using surround sound). Servers are shaky like every other DICE release first week. Single player campaign is amusing and a good way to learn controls. is it a COD killer? probably not. But after the dust settles and the servers mellow out this game should hold the interest of any hardcore shooter fan for quite awhile

    Graphics 8.75-9.00

    Pure dated console. 2005 was a bit ago. you can tell its pushing the limits of the hardware but after a few minutes you are focused on the tank trying to eat your face. With the HDD install the rating is a 9.00. without it objects are a lot less sharp. Lettering and signs are blurry. Due to the scope of this game which is quite large for its maps its to be expected. If you have the space install both discs and the HD content :)

    Sound 10

    Just turn it up and listen to the jets fly over you a few times. Every weapon sounds accurate and the explosions are great

    Gameplay 9.5

    Great controls and realistic warfare. Once the servers are 100% i expect this to be flawless for lag. unless your NAT is not open etc

    Replay 10

    Lots to do with every kit/vehicle and plenty of medals and unlocks. Great fun with a squad of your friends :)

    Hope this helps some of you on the fence about this game. if you dont have the HDD space you lose a lot of detail. But if you do and have the want for a realistic military shooter this is your game!

      Battlefield 3 is a game that should be looked at in a slightly different light than most others. The bread and butter of this title is in its multi-player and the bread and butter is mighty tasty. The single player campaign in a Battlefield title should be looked at as a secondary feature like most game’s multi-player portion is. That said the single player campaign itself is surprisingly well done and should not be overlooked.The multi-player in BF3 is essentially everything you like in Battlef...

      Something in the way (The Single Player) 0

      And with the release of Battlefield 3, we can officially declare that the Great 2011 war of the shooters has begun. And already, those of us who thought we would be Switzerland to Battlefield's and Modern Warfare 3's Axis and Aliied powers have found themselves taking sides. Having played the Xbox 360 version of Battlefield 3, I have arguably played the worst version of the game, but the main problem with the game is almost assuredly universal: the single player and co-op portions of the game ar...
