@Giantstalker:
Outright lies should not be tolerated by the gaming community. This makes EA, DICE, and Sony all look terrible. If the publisher promised a finished product as an addition to the current product they are selling, then there is no excuse for it to not be there. The most pathetic thing about this whole fiasco is how they flat out did not later come out and admit that it would not be there. They simply kept they're mouths shut and apparently acted as though no one would notice. That is lying to the consumer. Period. It's stupid and idiotic to argue otherwise. Why should I trust EA? I hate Activision, but they have never objectively outright lied to this extent that I can personally think of. And if anyone can think of an example I'd love to hear it because this is the most blatant lie I have heard from any publisher ever.
I have BF1943 and I can honestly say it is garbage, so PS3 owners duped into buying this version for that bonus can take some solace in the fact that they are not missing anything, but I still sympathize with their frustrations. And if you wanna burn down EA headquarters, I'll bring the kerosene. ;)
Personally, I won't be buying BF3 unless I get some playtime with it that convinces me it is worth the $60 investment. It needs to be the multiplayer game I want to keep playing over Gears 3, MW3, and UC3 even though I desperately want it to live up to that as I LOVE the multiplayer destructability concept. But if I do buy it, this is just further evidence the 360 version is the right version to get for a console gamer, broken servers be damned. That will be or already is fixed (hell if I know) and as always it has a bigger, stonger player base. Also, there's no mouse or move support that I'm aware of so controller's as good as it gets for console gamers.
Finally, Giantstalker, just admit that this was a colossul fuck up that is inexcusable. You just sound like a blind zealot defending your first purchase you ever made with your own allowance on the only system you have. I'm not saying it's true, but that is exactly what you sound like. Also note that this has nothing to do with my argument, or the proof of why you are inarguably wrong, but that I think for you to save face you should just admit it was a fuck up.
