It sucks that, at least at the time, a lot of console peeps thought Battlefield 3 was the sequel to Bad Company 2 because of the lack of Battlefield presence on consoles prior. They did pave the way for BF3 feature-wise but I don't really see how a continuation would work out apart from the single player :/
In MP: British, German, Austro-Hungarian, Italian, Ottoman, and American
Y'all are complaining about one-half of the game in which gameplay take place on pre-determined levels designed for repeated and balanced play, not to represent the goings of an actual battle in WWI. While it doesn't really compute why the French of all were not included in these skin and voice combo packs we call "teams", that does not mean they are not included in single-player which would likely take shape around actual battles in the war. It would be quite difficult if even following the most general histories of the conflict to avoid the French. Who knows? Maybe we'll be in the boots of a French soldier at one point? We only have the vague blurs of a trailer to base the singleplayer experience on thus far, so let's just wait and see until we lose our shit over this?
Also, I'm surprised they gave any look to the Italians and Ottomans, even in multiplayer. I'm also surprised that Canadians aren't bitching about their inclusion since the war takes up one of the largest chunks of their military history (and a highly celebrated one at that).
I had a pretty nice 40-inch or so TV back home with all the multiple HDMI/VGA/Component doodads. I remember I hooked a laptop up to it once and thought "Well this isn't practical", even with an extended keyboard and mouse on the couch. Regardless, I've always used monitors for my PC stuff, and have never used HDMI as of yet. The second I found an adapter for my 360, I plugged it into my VGA monitor right away and put it next to my PC.
I know, I'm crazy but I just don't see and/or care about the HDMI difference. The only thing I appreciate though is when its plugged into a TV from a console it carries both audio and video. That's definitely cool.
